Abstract
Sarcoma of the breast is a rare and heterogeneous lesion. We describe a case of a patient surgically treated for a breast lesion during pregnancy. The lesion resulted in a concentric neoplasia with the histological features of high grade sarcoma growing in a phyllodes tumor which was at the time grown in a fibroadenoma.
