Giant phyllodes tumors are one of the rarest breast tumors. This tumor typically presents itself as a firm and painless mass, mobile and generally located in one of the breasts. An HIV-positive 17 years old female patient presented a left breast swelling with a history of fast growing pace in the previous 6 months. Physical examination showed an ulcerated painless giant phyllodes tumor on the left breast, with multilobed firm characteristics and considerable blood vessel network. The tumor, with a 33cm circumference, took most of the left breast volume. No lymphadenopathies were detected. After radiographic tests, surgical procedure was performed. The anatomopathological report confirmed the presence of a high grade phyllodes tumor. The patient evolved favorably after surgery and was discharged in good general condition, with no fever. The study and management of this pathology was reviewed, as well as the importance of a correct differential diagnosis.
