AJR 2008;190(1):214-8 3 5/23/2015 CELLULAR FIBROADENOMA • Focal or diffuse mildly increased stromal cellularity without stromal atypia – No threshold criteria for defining hypercellularity – Stromal atypia is subjective • Stromal mitotic figures may be present (up to 2 MF/10 HPF typically acceptable) • Overlapping features with benign phyllodes tumors • Uniform cellularity and epithelial:stromal distribution JUVENILE FIBROADENOMA • More common in adolescents and women <20 years old • Usual-type fibroadenoma most common in all age groups • May mimic phyllodes tumor – Rapid growth, large size, histologic features • Cellular stroma with pericanalicular growth • Stromal mitotic activity may be present • No stromal cytologic atypia • Uniform cellularity and epithelial:stromal distribution • ‘Gynecomastoid’ usual ductal hyperplasia • Excision with preservation of adjacent breast 4 5/23/2015 ALH E-cadherin ● Atypia or carcinoma may involve fibroadenomas primarily or secondarily - ALH/LCIS most common - ADH/DCIS - Invasive carcinoma ALH E-cadherin PHYLLODES TUMORS • Rare <1% primary breast tumors <2.5% fibroepithelial lesions in tertiary centers • Age 40-50 years (but wide range, adolescence to 90) – 15-20 years older than FA, on average ADH Tangential – Tumors in adolescents often benign • More common in Asian and Latina women – May present at younger age in this group • Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (p53 mutations) predisposed 5 5/23/2015 PHYLLODES TUMORS PHYLLODES TUMORS • Present as mass lesion – Rapidly growing or accelerated growth of previously “fibroepithelial neoplasms, stable lesion histologically resembling intracanalicular fibroadenomas, characterized by a double- • 4-5 cm in size, but wide range (<3-20+ cm) layered epithelial component arranged in clefts – Smaller lesions increasingly detected by screening surrounded by a hypercellular stromal/mesenchymal component which in • Not reliably distinguished from fibroadenoma by imaging combination elaborate leaf-like structures” PHYLLODES TUMOR DIAGNOSIS BASED LEAF-LIKE GROWTH ON A CONSTELLATION OF FEATURES • Increased stromal cellularity* • Leaf-like growth ± periductal stromal condensation • Stromal heterogeneity • +/- mitotic activity* • +/- infiltrative border* • +/- stromal overgrowth* • +/- stromal cytologic atypia* • +/- malignant heterologous stroma* * Used to establish grade 6 5/23/2015 LEAF-LIKE GROWTH LEAF-LIKE GROWTH SUBEPITHELIAL STROMAL CONDENSATION SUBEPITHELIAL STROMAL CONDENSATION 7 5/23/2015 INTRALOBULAR STROMAL STROMAL HETEROGENEITY COMPRESSION OF FIBROADENOMA BENIGN PHYLLODES TUMOR GRADING PHYLLODES TUMORS Adapted from WHO Classification of Tumours of the Breast, 4 th ed. 2012 8 5/23/2015 MALIGNANT PHYLLODES TUMOR INFILTRATIVE BORDERS Stromal overgrowth (4x low power field) often diffuse 9 5/23/2015 MALIGNANT HETEROLOGOUS STROMA Most commonly liposarcomatous SATB2 is a useful marker of osseous differentiation SATB2 BORDERLINE PHYLLODES TUMOR SATB2 10 5/23/2015 Phyllodes tumor histologic grade FEATURES PREDICTIVE OF PHYLLODES predicts local recurrence TUMOR RECURRENCE - 605 phyllodes tumors (diagnosed over 18 years, 1992-2010) - 552 patients with clinical follow-up - 29.8/24.6 months mean/median time to recurrence ‘A.M.O.S.’ criteria Tan PH et al J Clin Pathol 2012;65:69-76 NOMOGRAM FOR PREDICTING PHYLLODES NOMOGRAM FOR PREDICTING PHYLLODES TUMOR RECURRENCE FREE SURVIVAL TUMOR RECURRENCE FREE SURVIVAL A.
