Ki67 and p53 expression in relation to clinicopathological features in phyllodes tumour of the breast

Introduction: Phyllodes tumour is a rare fibroepithelial neoplasm of the breast. Histopathological features remained the gold standard for the diagnosis. The usage of immunohistochemical markers of Ki67 and p53 acts as a supplement method particularly for the malignant phyllodes tumour. Therefore we...
