case_images: Computed tomography revealed a 2.2 cm mass in the right lung (Figure 2(a)) and 10 cm mass and pleural effusion in the left lung (Figure 2(b)).
case_images: Computed tomography scan acquired after doxorubicin-ifosfamide (AI) chemotherapy showing (a) complete regression of the right lung mass and (b) partial regression of the left lung mass to 2 cm (arrow) and an absence of pleural effusion.

case_images: After chemotherapy, the right lung mass regressed completely (Figure 3(a)), the left lung mass regressed to 2 cm (Figure 3(b)), and pleural effusion was no longer detected.
case_images: Computed tomography scan acquired after docetaxel chemotherapy showing (a) a lack of reappearance of the right lung mass and (b) an increase in the size of the left lung mass to 5.5 cm (arrow).

case_images: Pathological findings were consistent with a diagnosis of lung-metastatic breast phyllodes tumor, and curative resection was achieved (Figure 5).
case_images: Computed tomography scan acquired 4 months after lung surgery showing (a) a 10 cm mass in the mediastinum (arrow) and (b) a 6 cm mass in the left thoracic cavity (arrow).

case_images: Four months after lung surgery, a 10 cm mass in the mediastinum (Figure 6(a)) and 6 cm mass in the left thoracic cavity (Figure 6(b)) were observed.
