Abstract:Background
Fibroepithelial lesions (FEL) are a heterogeneous group of biphasic tumours that include fibroadenomas (FA) and the rare entity of benign phyllodes tumors (PT) as well as cases where distinction between these two entities is not possible.

Guidelines are not clearly established regarding the management of FEL in CNB or VA… Show more
