This review aims to evaluate how different surgical methods affect survival rates and recurrence in borderline and malignant phyllodes tumours.
Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of available literature
Included studies that addressed surgical approaches for borderline and malignant tumours
Analyzed survival and recurrence outcomes based on the type of surgery performed
Findings suggest that breast-conserving surgery (BCS) may improve survival rates
Recurrence rates vary significantly based on the surgical approach
Multidisciplinary treatment plans enhance patient outcomes and management strategies
Abstract
For individuals with borderline or malignant phyllodes tumours, BCS should be offered, where feasible, as part of an individualised multidisciplinary approach.
