No-one knows what causes phyllodes tumour. There may be a gene mutation but it's not yet proven.

Unknown. Since such a small percentage is people have a PT, there is not much money to be made from it so very little research has been done.

No research has been able to identify the root cause yet

There is no proven cause for PT.
Not enough research has been done on this rare Cancer to say with certainty. I was told they form from 'rogue cells' and faulty genes.

Noone knows. There does not appear to be a genetic or lifestyle driver.
