Gigantic cystosarcoma phyllodes in a man with gynecomastia
E. Pantoja, R. E. Llobet and E. Lopez
A 70-year-old man had a breast tumor for 50 years. The tumor, which weighed
8.6 kg, proved to be a malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes. It was
successfully removed by a simple mastectomy with low axillary dissection,
and a skin graft was performed. The lesion was associated with
gynecomastia, and it is believed to have represented a cystosarcomatous
transformation of a giant fibroadenoma.
