PROENCA, Sara; LERMANN, Rita; MARTINS, Amália  and  VERISSIMO, Carlos. Phyllodes tumor of the vulva - a rare diagnosis. Acta Obstet Ginecol Port [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.1, pp.60-62. ISSN 1646-5830.

Mammary-like neoplasms have been described through the mammary-line, axilla, vulva and prostate, and are rare lesions of un uncertain histological origin. Phyllodes tumor occuring in the vulva is rare with only a few cases reported. We describe a case of a 41-year-old woman with a vulvar swelling that revealed to be a phyllodes tumor after complete excision.

Keywords : Phyllodes tumor; Vulva; Ectopic breast.
