Dear jays67, It is difficult to say what this could be, both scenario's are possiblities. If the margin's were not clear based on the pathology findings, there would be more concern that this might be tumor. Having it rechecked to make sure it is not increasing in size makes sense.
I'd say it would be very difficult to draw conclusions from something that showed on ultrasound 3 monts postop; it certainly could be scar tissue. I'd consider it more of a new baseline, and would think that repeat after more time is a very reasonable thing; especiallly since a phyllodes tumor is not malignant. With clear margins, recurrance within 3 months would be unusual.
