Abstract
An uncommon case of metastatic pleural lesion with pleural effusion in a patient with phyllodes breast tumor is reported in this article. This clinical case demonstrates that computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with dynamic contrast enhancement is a highly valuable methods to diagnose malignant pleural lesions and to differentiate soft-tissue mass from fluid. MRI was the most useful as it allowed visualization tumor macrostructure and volume, and differentiation soft tissue from fluid, both visually and with diffusion weighted images.
