- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 40-year-old woman who presented with an expanding mass of the left axilla in the surgical clinic. It says that the mass was diagnosed as a phyllodes tumor (PT) arising in ectopic axillary breast tissue on histopathological examination. It adds that the role of dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) of the breast to accomplish correct presurgical approach is supported by the presentation of uncommon PT.
