Abstract

Phyllodes tumor of the breast, especially malignant, is a rare tumor which has characteristic cytologic features. We recently experienced a case of the needle aspiration cytology of malignant phyllodes tumor of the breast
metastatic
to the lung. The aspirate showed cellular smear with biphasic population of epithelial and stromal cells.
Many individual large cells with round hyperchromatic nuclei were found in the necrotic background and stromal cell atypia was also present. Chondrosarcomatous fragments were also seen in cytologic specimens.
