Abstract
Phyllodes tumors are similar to fibroadenomas in imaging and in pathological characteristics and are difficult to identify preoperatively. The purpose of this study was to analyze the recurrence rate after excision stratified by the surgical margin width and to propose and emphasize the "wait and watch" treatment strategy for benign phyllodes tumors.
