Abstract (original English)

This report documents an uncommon variant of benign cystosarcoma phyllodes with mature adipose stromal differentiation, for which the term lipophyllodes tumor is proposed. Origin of this unusual tumor within a lipomatous hamartoma was confirmed by histologic and mammographic observations. The lesion developed in a 40-year-old woman 2 months post partum, and she remained well after treatment by biopsy. Lipophyllodes tumor, which features mature adipose tissue in much of the stromal component of a cystosarcoma, should not be mistaken for a malignant neoplasm. Complete excision is adequate therapy.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • Without an adequate control group, treatment effects cannot be separated from other factors.
