Abstract

Mammary fibroepithelial lesions encompass a wide spectrum of tumours ranging from an indolent fibroadenoma to potentially fatal malignant phyllodes tumour. Here, we report a case of 22 -year -old unmarried girl with bilateral breast lump for one month who underwent wide local excision which on histopathological examination revealed borderline phyllodes tumour and tubular adenoma in a background of fibrocystic disease with adenosis, marked epithelial hyperplasia, fibro adenomatoid change and apocrine metaplasia a rare occurrence which can be confused with benign and malignant lesions of the breast.
