Abstract    Phyllodes tumors，which are defined as fibroepithelital of breast tumours，are uncommon，and they are difficult to predict biologic behavior based on clinicopathologic features. The diagnosis and classification of phyllodes tumors of the breast rely mainly on histopathological examination. Core needle aspiration biopsy is the best diagnostic method. The different surgical operation should be performed according to the different classification. Breast surgery with clear margin is the current treatment of choice for phyllodes tumors. The rationality of the first operation resection range is the most important prognostic factor. The postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, radiation therapy and endocrine therapy appear to be increasing in recent years，but their efficacy is debatable.
