Table 2. Correlation between MED12 exon 2 mutation status and patient age and tumor size in patients with fibroepithelial tumors.

Age (Mean ± SD) MED12 mutant n Age (Mean ± SD) MED12 wild-type n P value
Fibroadenoma 31.8 ± 1.9 17 37.1 ± 3.7 9 0.158
Benign PT 42 ± 2.2 22 36.3 ± 8.1 3 0.404
Borderline PT 49.3 ± 4.5 7 44.5 ± 2.5 2 0.604
Tumor size (cm) (Mean ± SD) MED12 mutant n Tumor size (cm) (Mean ± SD) MED12 wild-type n P value
Fibroadenoma 1.7 ± 0.2 17 2.2 ± 0.3 9 0.168
Benign PT 2.3 ± 0.2 22 2.4 ± 1.3 3 0.899
Borderline PT 5.8 ± 1.2 7 5.8 ± 3.1 2 0.986

Student's t-tests, two-tailed. PT, phyllodes tumor; SD, standard deviation. Malignant PTs were excluded from this comparison due to small sample size and the low frequency of MED12 mutations.
