Phyllodes tumour

Hi all

 

Have found this forum last week after being told that a lump that was removed by wide incision lumpectomy was infact cancerous. 

 

This forum has been so helpful, so am now wondering if it can be of futher help. 

 

I was told that the lump was a malignant phyllodes tumour  - anyone else had this? This is apparently is rare and I was wondering if anyone else out there has had this?

 

Many thanks :slight_smile:

I’ve attached a link to our publication on phyllodes tumours:

Hi Sonkatuk,

I’m 26 and currently having radiotherapy following a malignant phyllodes diagnosis. We’re one in a million so it’s kind of reassuring to have seen your post on this forum. I can see it was a few years ago, have there been any updates since? Xx
