1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.675
It was about a month or two ago

2
00:00:00.675 --> 00:00:02.775
A patient came in with a phyllodes tumor

3
00:00:02.775 --> 00:00:03.975
that was 16 cm!

4
00:00:03.975 --> 00:00:05.174
It was huge, seriously

5
00:00:05.174 --> 00:00:06.674
Because phyllodes tumors grow rapidly

6
00:00:06.674 --> 00:00:07.774
[You can feel it growing]
patients can literally feel the growth happening

7
00:00:07.774 --> 00:00:09.074
Phyllodes tumors grow so quickly

8
00:00:09.074 --> 00:00:10.624
that some patients say they can feel it getting bigger

9
00:00:10.624 --> 00:00:11.424
even within just a few days

10
00:00:11.424 --> 00:00:13.824
[What took you so long!]
“What were you doing until it got that big?"

11
00:00:13.824 --> 00:00:17.023
[Wrong question]
That kind of question doesn’t apply to phyllodes tumor patients

12
00:00:17.023 --> 00:00:17.823
They’re just like, “Uh… uh…”

13
00:00:17.823 --> 00:00:19.123
[This big..]
and then suddenly it’s grown that big

14
00:00:19.973 --> 00:00:23.473
SHINYU CLINIC

15
00:00:23.473 --> 00:00:26.922
PD: “The patient who just came in finished quickly, huh?”

16
00:00:26.922 --> 00:00:28.972
Yeah, it was a phyllodes tumor case

17
00:00:28.972 --> 00:00:29.622
At first,

18
00:00:29.622 --> 00:00:30.872
this patient seemed really irritable

19
00:00:30.872 --> 00:00:32.872
A doctor from the countryside

20
00:00:32.872 --> 00:00:33.921
[Send a SOS to him]
referred them to me

21
00:00:33.921 --> 00:00:35.521
But when someone seems irritable,

22
00:00:35.521 --> 00:00:37.421
it’s usually because they’ve been through a lot

23
00:00:37.421 --> 00:00:39.271
The tumor kept coming back, over and over

24
00:00:39.271 --> 00:00:40.721
It’s no wonder they ended up like that

25
00:00:40.721 --> 00:00:41.821
[Going crazy]
They were just at their wits’ end

26
00:00:41.821 --> 00:00:44.220
[Repeated recurrence lowers trust in Doctors]
Even if we say, "This is the right way," but they can't believe us

27
00:00:44.220 --> 00:00:46.220
 “Is it really going to…”

28
00:00:46.220 --> 00:00:48.870
"Won’t I just be left with scars and a huge dent in my chest?"

29
00:00:48.870 --> 00:00:50.120
There were already significant scars and indentations

30
00:00:50.120 --> 00:00:52.219
So you came in with large scars and that condition

31
00:00:52.219 --> 00:00:53.769
"Can I even trust other doctors now..."

32
00:00:53.769 --> 00:00:54.969
You must have endured so much

33
00:00:54.969 --> 00:00:55.919
That must’ve been you holding it in

34
00:00:55.919 --> 00:00:58.169
Phyllodes tumors are different from general fibroadenomas

35
00:00:58.169 --> 00:01:00.169
Phyllodes Tumor Treatment: Need to take out the tumor and tissue around it
(There's a risk it could turn cancerous, so it may spread into nearby tissue)

36
00:01:00.169 --> 00:01:02.168
But right now, we can’t be sure

37
00:01:02.168 --> 00:01:03.168
if it’s actually a phyllodes tumor

38
00:01:03.168 --> 00:01:04.568
Still, considering it keeps recurring

39
00:01:04.568 --> 00:01:06.168
There’s a high possibility it is a phyllodes tumor

40
00:01:06.168 --> 00:01:07.768
But since a large portion of your breast has already been removed,

41
00:01:07.768 --> 00:01:09.118
And you already have indentation in your breast,

42
00:01:09.118 --> 00:01:11.217
If we say we need to remove tissue from two more areas,

43
00:01:11.217 --> 00:01:13.567
[Almost nothing left of the breast]
That would mean you'd lose about a quarter of your breast

44
00:01:13.567 --> 00:01:15.117
When doctors have to cut someone’s breast like that

45
00:01:15.117 --> 00:01:16.017
it really breaks our hearts..

46
00:01:16.017 --> 00:01:17.317
We just want to do the best we can for you

47
00:01:17.317 --> 00:01:20.516
Even though it doesn't follow the standard 
surgical principles for phyllodes tumors,

48
00:01:20.516 --> 00:01:21.766
we only remove only the phyllodes tumor!

49
00:01:21.766 --> 00:01:22.516
[Insert joke] It's like digging out potatoes (?)
PD) (Huh...?)

50
00:01:22.516 --> 00:01:23.966
You're not even from Gangwon-do;;

51
00:01:23.966 --> 00:01:26.266
I dig out phyllodes tumor like I dig potatoes

52
00:01:26.266 --> 00:01:27.966
So I pulled it out and picked it out really pretty

53
00:01:27.966 --> 00:01:29.766
In this patient, we had a 3cm incision,

54
00:01:29.766 --> 00:01:32.165
then we gathered the tissue to correct the depression

55
00:01:32.165 --> 00:01:34.615
So I removed it, but now that it's depression-corrected,

56
00:01:34.615 --> 00:01:35.565
the patient had faith in me, right?

57
00:01:35.565 --> 00:01:37.565
[Supposed to excise more around the tumor]
The main mass has already been removed

58
00:01:37.565 --> 00:01:39.514
but you still need to remove more tissue around it

59
00:01:39.514 --> 00:01:41.264
So naturally, the breast will end up smaller

60
00:01:41.264 --> 00:01:44.114
[Fixing the indentation using nearby tissue]
What I did was pull in the surrounding tissue to fill in the dent

61
00:01:44.114 --> 00:01:44.914
So this patient came

62
00:01:44.914 --> 00:01:46.864
and her face was bright

63
00:01:46.864 --> 00:01:49.513
[My breast became smaller, but their shape became pretty]
I had surgery, and my breast got smaller,

64
00:01:49.513 --> 00:01:51.513
but I thought it was better looking

65
00:01:51.513 --> 00:01:53.963
When she did it at a hospital in Busan,

66
00:01:53.963 --> 00:01:57.163
the doctor ruined it and she fought with him

67
00:01:57.163 --> 00:01:58.662
If it's going to look this good,

68
00:01:58.662 --> 00:02:00.812
Patient: I'm not afraid of continuing to develop phyllodes tumors!

69
00:02:00.812 --> 00:02:01.462
That's exactly what she said

70
00:02:01.462 --> 00:02:02.562
PD) Wow~~

71
00:02:02.562 --> 00:02:05.162
[Showing off]
There's something I'm good at sometimes

72
00:02:05.162 --> 00:02:05.862
It was about a month or two ago

73
00:02:05.862 --> 00:02:07.961
a patient came in with a phyllodes tumor

74
00:02:07.961 --> 00:02:09.111
that was 16 cm!

75
00:02:09.111 --> 00:02:10.311
It was huge, seriously

76
00:02:10.311 --> 00:02:12.011
Then, in fact, the breast tissue is hollowed out

77
00:02:12.011 --> 00:02:13.261
There is nothing I can do
Because it's widely removed

78
00:02:13.261 --> 00:02:15.261
[Still, gather the rest of the tissue and make the shape]
But I should try to collect the rest of it

79
00:02:15.261 --> 00:02:17.310
and make it look like a breast

80
00:02:17.310 --> 00:02:20.510
You need proper surgery rather than beauty!

81
00:02:20.510 --> 00:02:22.010
Phyllodes tumors grow so fast

82
00:02:22.010 --> 00:02:23.110
[You Can Feel It Growing]
that patients can actually feel them getting bigger

83
00:02:23.110 --> 00:02:24.410
Phyllodes tumors grow so quickly

84
00:02:24.410 --> 00:02:25.960
that some patients say they can feel it getting bigger

85
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:26.759
even within just a few days

86
00:02:26.759 --> 00:02:29.159
[Why did you come to the hospital now?]
Asking, “Why did you wait until it got to 15 or 16 cm?”

87
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:32.359
[Wrong question]
isn’t the right thing to say to someone with a phyllodes tumor

88
00:02:32.359 --> 00:02:33.159
While they were doing "Uh...", "Uh..."

89
00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:34.059
[It got this big...]
It suddenly got bigger

90
00:02:34.059 --> 00:02:36.259
If you make a reservation for a college hospital, it's way past the date

91
00:02:36.259 --> 00:02:37.859
If you go to the doctor's office,

92
00:02:37.859 --> 00:02:39.358
you have to set a separate date for the test

93
00:02:39.358 --> 00:02:40.808
After the test, you have to make a reservation again

94
00:02:40.808 --> 00:02:41.958
An endless waiting

95
00:02:41.958 --> 00:02:43.658
But the advantage of a private hospital is

96
00:02:43.658 --> 00:02:46.107
I can't leave it anymore
It's getting bigger

97
00:02:46.107 --> 00:02:48.057
Then, in the case of a private hospital, 
we can schedule surgery within a week

98
00:02:48.057 --> 00:02:49.607
[I need to make it up!]
You have to step in and force yourself to do it

99
00:02:49.607 --> 00:02:51.807
You think you're going to live after surgery 
and removal of the phyllodes tumor

100
00:02:51.807 --> 00:02:54.107
[After the surgery, she looks lighter]
That's why the patients' faces bloom

101
00:02:54.107 --> 00:02:57.656
A woman who came in with 
a 16cm phyllodes tumor was also in her 50s

102
00:02:57.656 --> 00:02:59.656
Her daughter is already in her 20s

103
00:02:59.656 --> 00:03:01.106
She came with her daughter

104
00:03:01.106 --> 00:03:02.606
So just imagine how worried 
her daughter must have been..

105
00:03:02.606 --> 00:03:04.456
If that was really her mom (?)

106
00:03:04.456 --> 00:03:05.255
PD) That’s a bit...

107
00:03:05.255 --> 00:03:07.655
Just kidding... haha...
