Abstract
Objective: To report the case of a patient with recurrence of borderline phyllodes tumor. Case report: Woman, 62-year-old, who was referred for core biopsy, presenting a nodulation that occupied the entire inferior lateral quadrant of the right breast. The patient had a history of sectorectomy in the same breast, due to a phyllodes tumor, which was removed with free margins two years prior. Subsequently, there was confirmation that the tumor had returned, through the result of an anatomopathological exam. Final considerations: There is still a lack of studies focusing on various aspects of this rare entity, such as clinical and histological research, highlighting the need for more scientific publications. This disease, which impacts on patients’ quality of life, requires a multidimensional approach. Thus, it is possible to promote continuous development of the professionals, seeking to improve the care provided and consequently, improve patients' quality of life.
