Phyllodes Tumor (PT) is a rare fibroepithelial neoplasm. Phyllodes tumors are subclassified as benign, borderline, or malignant based on a combination of several histologic features including stromal cellularity, atypia, mitotic activity, tumor border, and stromal overgrowth. The majority (60-75%) are benign. 15-25% are borderline, and 8-20% are malignant.

Rare, less than 1% of all breast tumors and 2.5% of all fibroepithelial neoplasms. The incidence is higher, ~7% of breast tumors, among Asian women. Phyllodes tumor is more common in older women (in their 50s), in contrast to fibroadenomas which are more common in younger women (in their 20s).

''Borderline'' phyllodes tumor is diagnosed when one or more of the above adverse histologic features are present but histologic criteria fall short of malignant PT.

''Benign'' phyllodes tumor has well defined borders, shows mild stromal cellularity, does not show atypia, and has a mitotic count <5/10 hpf

Due to the rare incidence of phyllodes tumors, most genomic studies are limited in number, and studies including patient follow-up information are very rare. Thus, the true mutation rate for rare events may vary compared to the numbers presented. In addition, very few studies have evaluated the prognostic outcome of genomic abnormalities. Additional studies are needed to better characterize the landscape and clinical significance of genomic abnormalities in phyllodes tumors.

Cancer Category / Type

Breast cancer / Fibroepithelial Tumors of the Breast

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Phyllodes Tumor

Definition / Description of Disease

Phyllodes Tumor (PT) is a rare fibroepithelial neoplasm. Phyllodes tumors are subclassified as benign, borderline, or malignant based on a combination of several histologic features including stromal cellularity, atypia, mitotic activity, tumor border, and stromal overgrowth. The majority (60-75%) are benign. 15-25% are borderline, and 8-20% are malignant.

Synonyms / Terminology

Cystosarcoma phyllodes (Historical)

Epidemiology / Prevalence

Rare, less than 1% of all breast tumors and 2.5% of all fibroepithelial neoplasms. The incidence is higher, ~7% of breast tumors, among Asian women. Phyllodes tumor is more common in older women (in their 50s), in contrast to fibroadenomas which are more common in younger women (in their 20s).

Clinical Features

PT usually present clinically as unilateral, well circumscribed mass. Lymph node metastases are infrequent.

Signs and Symptoms Unilateral, well-circumscribed mass
Laboratory Findings

Sites of Involvement

There is no specific predilection for location in the breast.

Morphologic Features

Malignant phyllodes tumor is diagnosed when all of the following morphologic features are present [1]:

·       Marked stromal nuclear pleomorphism

·       Stromal overgrowth (absence of epithelial elements in one low-power microscopic field)

·       Increased mitoses (>=10 mitoses/10 high power fields (hpf))

·       Increased stromal cellularity

·       Permeative tumor border

Or, when malignant heterologous elements are present (with the exception of well-differentiated liposarcoma).

Borderline phyllodes tumor is diagnosed when one or more of the above adverse histologic features are present but histologic criteria fall short of malignant PT.

Benign phyllodes tumor has well defined borders, shows mild stromal cellularity, does not show atypia, and has a mitotic count <5/10 hpf

Immunophenotype

Finding Marker
Positive (universal) CD34 (in benign PT)
Positive (subset) EGFR (97%) of Malignant PT [2], CD34 (majority of borderline PT, subset of malignant PT), beta-catenin (94%) of benign lesions
Negative (universal) p63 and p40 (in benign and borderline PT)
Negative (subset) EXAMPLE CD4

8 Gain 8q No Unknown No Clinically relevant gene(s) unknown. Associated with higher grade tumors [3][5]. Significantly more common in malignant versus borderline tumors [3].
9 Deletion 9p21.3 No Yes No Relevant genes: CDKN2A/ CDKN2B. Borderline and malignant tumors; associated with recurrent disease [7].
10 Deletion 10q23.31 No Yes No Relevant gene: PTEN may be enriched in borderline and malignant tumors [7][4][5][8][3].
13 Deletion 13q14.2 No No No Relevant gene: RB1. Mostly borderline or malignant tumors [4][5][3]. Focal deletions support the minimal cytoband 13q14.2 including RB1 [5][3]

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

Put your text here and fill in the table (Instructions: Can include references in the table.)

Gene; Genetic Alteration Pathway Pathophysiologic Outcome
EXAMPLE: BRAF and MAP2K1; Activating mutations EXAMPLE: MAPK signaling EXAMPLE: Increased cell growth and proliferation
EXAMPLE: CDKN2A; Inactivating mutations EXAMPLE: Cell cycle regulation EXAMPLE: Unregulated cell division
EXAMPLE:  KMT2C and ARID1A; Inactivating mutations EXAMPLE:  Histone modification, chromatin remodeling EXAMPLE:  Abnormal gene expression program

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel including genes listed in Gene Mutations table at a minimum. Standard somatic breast cancer panels are not appropriate for phyllodes tumors due to differences in mutational profiles.

Chromosomal microarray for CNV detection can be considered if NGS panel does not call CNVs. Detection of CNVs can help differentiate between fibroadenomas and phyllodes tumors. FISH for EGFR amplification can also be considered in the absence of chromosome microarray or appropriate NGS assay.

Familial Forms

Patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome (germline TP53 pathogenic variant) are at increased risk for phyllodes tumor (NCCN breast cancer guidelines).  However, phyllodes tumor is not listed as a syndrome-associated tumor in the Genetic/Familial High-Risk Assessment guidelines.

Additional Information

Due to the rare incidence of phyllodes tumors, most genomic studies are limited in number, and studies including patient follow-up information are very rare. Thus, the true mutation rate for rare events may vary compared to the numbers presented. In addition, very few studies have evaluated the prognostic outcome of genomic abnormalities. Additional studies are needed to better characterize the landscape and clinical significance of genomic abnormalities in phyllodes tumors.
