Primary breast sarcomas are rarely seen compared to benign mesenchymal tumors and constitute less than 0.1% of all malignant breast tumors. When histomorphological findings suggestive of a mesenchymal tumor are observed in breast specimens, sufficient sampling should be performed to exclude a possible phyllodes tumor, and clinicoradiological findings should be examined to exclude the possibility of a metastasis.
