Suggest Treatment For Phylloids Tumor
Question: my relative is diagnoised with Phylloids Tumor what can be done to cure it
Brief Answer:
Surgery most important
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concerns.
Phyllodes tumor is an uncommon tumor of the breast. It can be benign, borderline malignant or frankly malignant(cancerous).
In any case, surgery gives the best results. If small, only tumor containing part of breast removed. If large, then whole breast has to be removed.
If you can share some relevant reports, I might be able to guide you better.
Hope this helps.
Regards

Already went through surgery and removed but this is second time in last two years any specific treatment
Brief Answer:
Need to know details of the surgeries
Detailed Answer:
Without that, very difficult to suggest anything. If whole breast not removed and tumor recurring within same breast, then whole breast should be removed.
