- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 48-year-old female from regional Australia with a 12-month history of an enlarging lump in her left breast. The patient had a sister who developed breast cancer in her 40s but did not have any significant past medical history or risk factors for breast malignancy. The researchers present a case of a giant phyllodes tumour, which was complicated by life-threatening sepsis.
