Purpose. Surgical excision is recommended for complete evaluation of cellular fibroepithelial lesions identified from core needle biopsy. The purpose of this study was to determine factors associated with phyllodes tumor among cellular fibroepithelial lesions from core biopsies and develop a scoring system to predict the risk of phyllodes tumor. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed clinical data of 169 breast lesions that were diagnosed as cellular fibroepithelial lesions from core needle biopsy at the Seoul National University Bundang Hospital between March 2005 and January 2013. The clinical, histopathologic, and radiologic characteristics were compared between phyllodes tumors and fibroadenomas during the final diagnosis after surgical excision. Results. Of the 169 lesions, 17 were observed and 152 were surgically removed. After excision, final pathology revealed 60 (39.5%) fibroadenomas and 92 (60.5%) phyllodes tumors. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that age (≥40 years), stromal overgrowth, and stromal cellularity were independent factors associated with phyllodes tumors. A scoring system was developed based on a multivariate logistic regression model, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.828 (95% confidence interval = 0.763-0.893). Conclusion. The scoring system will help clinicians make appropriate treatment for patients with cellular fibroepithelial lesions on core needle biopsy.

Phyllodes tumors are rare primary breast neoplasms graded as benign, borderline, or malignant based on pathology characterization of the stromal component. Core-needle biopsy is recommended as the first diagnostic step for breast lesions suspicious for phyllodes. Surgical excisional biopsy is recommended for a core-needle biopsy showing cellular fibroepithelial lesion or a mass suspicious for phyllodes tumor as pathology diagnosis is challenging, especially on limited tissue specimens. Surgical treatment parallels that for soft tissue sarcoma rather than breast adenocarcinoma. Wide local excision and mastectomy, with 1 cm tumor-free margins, provide equivalent oncologic outcomes. Tumor enucleation, subtotal resection, and positive final margins should be avoided. Axillary surgery is not recommended as lymph node metastases are rare. Adjuvant radiation is not recommended as routine, nor is adjuvant chemotherapy, although either or both may be considered for primary or recurrent high-risk malignant phyllodes tumors on a case-by-case basis. Local recurrence rates are influenced by margin status and tumor grade. Distant metastases occur in up to 25% of patients with borderline/malignant tumors and bestow a poor prognosis. Recent molecular genetic analyses of phyllodes tumors have identified potentially targetable mutations that may guide future therapy for high-risk, recurrent, or metastatic phyllodes tumors. This review contains 5 figures, 5 tables, and 53 references. Key words: biomarkers, breast sarcoma, diagnosis, outcomes, pathology, phyllodes tumor, surgery, treatment
