A prostatic lesion characterized by atypical epithelial hyperplasia and pleomorphism of the stromal elements is presented. The features bear a strong resemblance to cystosarcoma phyllodes of the female breast and probably represent a comparable lesion. Such atypical hyperplasia has not been described previously.

Objective: Phyllodes tumor (PT) is a variant of fibroepithelial proliferations of the breast, histologically demonstrating a leaf-like pattern. The WHO has categorized PTs as benign, borderline, or malignant based on their histological characteristics. The objective of this paper is to assess the clinicopathological factors with malignancy in PT of the breast.

Phyllodes tumor is a type of fibroepithelial neoplasm involving the breast. This tumor is rarely reported in adolescents and the elderly and has a peak incidence in middle-aged women. Histologically, phyllodes tumors are classified as benign, borderline, or malignant.

Point mutations in the ligand binding domain of retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARα) are linked to breast fibroepithelial tumor development, but their role in solid tumorigenesis is unclear. In this study, we assessed the functional effects of known RARα mutations on retinoic acid signaling using biochemical and cellular assays. All tested mutants exhibited reduced transcriptional activity compared to wild-type RARα and showed a dominant negative effect, a feature associated with developmental defects and tumor formation.

However, diagnostic challenges with core biopsy specimens often result in suboptimal surgical margins. This study aims to elucidate the correlation between margin status and PT recurrence, thereby informing surgical decision-making and enhancing patient outcomes.

Article Synopsis
- Primary breast cancer in children and adolescents is rare and has distinct characteristics compared to adult cases, necessitating a study to predict survival rates in this population.
- The study analyzed 115 pediatric patients, primarily focusing on demographic data and tumor characteristics, finding significant predictors of overall survival (OS) to be the SEER and M stages of cancer.
- A nomogram was developed to aid in predicting OS, addressing a gap in research by providing comprehensive insights into pediatric breast cancer prognosis.
