Abstract | A young woman in her 20s was found to have a left breast malignant phyllodes tumour by ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy, after identifying a palpable lump. She then underwent lumpectomy excision with >1 cm gross margins; however, final pathology demonstrated <1 cm margins at the superior margin. She then underwent re-excision of superior and medial margins to ensure at least a 1 cm margin. Biopsy tract was not excised at initial or re-excision surgery. Approximately 6 weeks after completion lumpectomy, the patient noted a new palpable mass near the previous biopsy site and underwent punch biopsy. Final pathology of this new mass was concordant with early recurrence. The patient then underwent lumpectomy of the new mass along with excision of the overlying skin and biopsy tract with >1 cm margins. |
