Phyllodes tumor is a breast fibroepithelial lesion that rarely occurred. This type of tumor has tendency to recurre and metastasize. This study aimed to determine the features of phyllodes tumor in Hasan Sadikin General Hospital in period of 2012 to 2016, histopathologically and clinically. Descriptive study with cross sectional design was conducted in Department of Pathological Anatomy, Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, from September 2016 to May 2017. Using total sampling, the secondary data are taken from medical records with the diagnosis of phyllodes tumor. From 88 samples taken, the mean age of the tumor occurrence is 45,56 years old and the mean size of tumor diameter is 10,98 cm. Tumor with benign type has the highest prevalence, with 54 cases reported. Mastectomy is the most common procedure performed on this tumor. There are 7 recurred patients and 1 patient with metastasis. As conclusions, phyllodes tumor is a rare tumor. In Hasan Sadikin general hospital, it mostly occurs in women aged 45 years old in the benign type. Mastectomy is often performed as a choice of surgical treatment.

“…10 There is great variation in patients' surveillance protocols following the excision of PTs. 11 Few clinicians discharge patients immediately after surgical excision with many units having no local guidelines on PT follow-up. 11 The value of clinical follow-up following complete excision of benign and borderline PTs remains unclear.…”

Background: Phyllodes tumours of the breast are benign, borderline or malignant fibroepithelial lesions. They are uncommon and usually treated with surgical or radiological excision. The association with local recurrence has led to much debate over the extent of excision margins. It has traditionally followed that clinical surveillance for local recurrence is necessary following surgery. Follow-up is without any nationally agreed protocol and is therefore variable. Methods: After exclusions, 116 cases of benign (n=81), borderline (n=30) and malignant (n=5) phyllodes tumours were identified in a single centre, between 2005 and 2018. These were analysed using a database, electronic patient records and notes-based review. Results: Benign recurrence occurred in six patients with complete excision of benign PTs (7.4%) and one with borderline PT (3.3%). No malignant Phyllodes tumours developed following excision of benign or borderline lesions. Conclusions: This study of 13 years experience with 111 non-malignant Phyllodes tumours provides support for no routine clinical surveillance, but it supports patient education and open access to breast clinic.
