OBJECTLVE :
@EN The phylloides tumor of the breast is rare. The purposes of this study were to find the characteristic findings at mammography sonography. And color Doppler imging and to evaluate the usefulness of color Doppler study as an additional
modality
in
the diagnosis of phylloides tumor and differentiation between benign and inalignant varieties.
@ES SUBJECTLVES AND METHODS :
@EN Eight cases, who were pathologically proven as pylloides tumors, were retiospectively The findings at histologic examination suggested benign in live, malignant in two, and borderline in one We analized the mammograms of all eight patients
and
sonogram and color Doppler images of four patients.
@ES RESULTS :
@EN phylloides tumors were seen as dense masses with lobulated margins in mammograms. On sonography, they showed relatively well-defined masses with inhomogenous internal echo pattern and central echogenic areas. They were characterized by the
presence
of arterial and venous flows in the center and periphery.
@ES CONCLUSLON :
@EN We conclude that mammographic, sonographic, and even color Doppler findings are not predictive of benign or malignant nature of the phylloides tumor. However, mammography and sonography with color Doppler interrogation are helpful in the
diagnosis
of phylloides tumor.
