borderline?? Hi Mallen,
I have a phyllodes tumor which is in part, 25%, malignant and was wondering what they class as borderline?
I have found lots of information from the internet just through search engines but it still seems to be just the same stuff over and over…my consultant wont commit to giving me any more information at this stage and just keeps saying how rare it is and the pathologist wont sign off the final report…so good luck on your quest!!
All the very best

phyllodes hi sal
Don’t know what borderline really is, assume it is part malignant, not getting any info bar what i have found on internet same as yourself.
Have had no dealings with pathologist, what do you mean won’t sign off final report?
I have just had second tumor removed and consultant seems happy just to keep a good eye on me, am not too happy as this is 4th time i have had operations in last year. All i know is it is really rare and you are the first person who i have had contact with who has the same tumor, no-one has been able to put me in contact with anyone with same problem. Didn’t even know under what forum to ask questions as we don’t seem to fit any label.
Enough of my moans -
All the best

phyllodes Hi Mallen,
Moan as much as you like…its a stressful time…Igot loads of help through “darkfairy” on the link below, she has lots of experience with it and links to other sites…I must say I found this forum a lot more relaxed and supportive, especially as we dont have common or garden tumors!
You can also leave me private mail there under same user name!
Good luck!
Sal
