The authors present a case of relapsing benign phyllodes cystosarcoma of the breast in an obese female treated with a simple mastectomy and an immediate reconstruction using a bipedicled transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap. After a brief review of treatment options for phyllodes tumors, they discuss the advantages of TRAM flap breast reconstruction, suggesting that it may also be applied in obese patients.
