Treatment of phyllodes tumor

Treatment of phyllodes tumor

Local therapy for a phyllodes tumor will include surgery (wide excision or mastectomy) to remove the tumor and extra tissue around it. Sometimes, radiation is given as well. Systemic therapy (chemotherapy) may be used if a malignant phyllodes tumor has spread outside of the breast, though this not common.
