“…There are few case reports published in the English literature because PST is a rare entity (3,(11)(12)(13). There is little information about the radiologic features of these lesions; the only two separate cases reported in the literature roughly describe the radiologic features without using definitive images (12,13).…”

“…It has biphasic morphology with benign ducts and a sarcomatous stroma with no specific clinical or radiologic findings, which makes it difficult to diagnose (1)(2)(3)(4). It was classified as a different entity by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2002 because of lack of phylloides architecture.…”

“…It was classified as a different entity by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2002 because of lack of phylloides architecture. PST has a tendency to recur if excised incompletely and can be transformed to sarcomas, which is why surgery with safe margins is recommended (2,3,5). Herein, we present the radiologic features and histopathology of this case especially to emphasize the importance of diagnosis using Tru-cut biopsy with radiologic-pathologic correlation, and to discuss the differential diagnosis of periductal stromal tumor of the breast.…”

We present a woman aged 50 years who underwent a Tru-cut biopsy for a BI-RADS 4 lesion on her right breast and received a histopathology diagnosis of a fibroadenoma. In her one year follow-up, the lesion had progressed and she underwent an excisional biopsy. Her final diagnosis was a periductal stromal tumor. Periductal stromal tumor is an extremely rare and different entity from phylloides tumor, which makes appropriate diagnosis difficult in Tru-cut biopsy and care should be taken. Lesion progression of should require a re-biopsy. Their tendency to recur warrants follow-up. We believe that radiologic, pathologic, and clinical correlation is key in decision-making and diagnosis of these tumors.

“…Histologic criteria for PSS according to the AFIP include: predominantly sarcomatous spindle cell stromal proliferation around open ducts and tubules, lack of leaf-like growth pattern, one or more nodules that can be separated by adipose tissue, mitotic activity equal to or more than 3 in 10 HPF and infiltration into surrounding adipose tissue (2,3). Histologic grading depends on atypia and mitotic count ranges from low to high grade.…”

Periductal stromal sarcoma (PSS) is a type of rare malignant fibroepithelial tumor. PSS is a recently introduced diagnostic entity and there are few reports about radiological features of this tumor. Pre-operative diagnosis is difficult because it reveals similar symptoms with other benign and malignant tumors with absence of specific radiologic findings. We present a woman age 30 that underwent mammotome biopsy for a BI-RADS 4 lesion on her left breast and received histopathology diagnosis of a phyllodes tumor. Additionally, she underwent a wide excision depending on her histopathology diagnosis. Her final diagnosis was PSS. Six months later, no recurrence was detected. However, frequent follow-up is needed because PSS can develop into phyllodes tumor or entity of breast cancer.
