Cystosarcoma phyllodes is a rare breast tumor with variable malignant potential. Metastasis has been reported in a small percentage of cases. We describe the case of a 52-year-old woman who developed a large facial tumor 1 year after she had undergone a mastectomy for a rapidly enlarging breast neoplasm. The facial lesion was found to be a malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes metastatic to the mandible, and the patient died shortly after diagnosis. To our knowledge, this patient represents only the third reported case of a phyllodes tumor metastatic to the mandible.
叶状囊肉瘤是一种罕见的乳腺肿瘤，其恶性潜能各异。已有少数病例报告发生转移。我们描述了一名52岁女性的病例，她在因快速增大的乳腺肿瘤接受乳房切除术后1年出现了一个巨大的面部肿瘤。面部病变被发现是转移至下颌骨的恶性叶状囊肉瘤，患者在诊断后不久死亡。据我们所知，该患者是第三例报告的转移至下颌骨的叶状肿瘤病例。
