Background:

Cystosarcoma phylloides is a rare malignant breast tumor.
Treatment options for malignant cystosarcoma phylloides can be challenging.

Observation:

A case of malignant cystosarcoma phylloides is presented.
The patient received radiotherapy using electrons.

Findings:

Electron beam radiotherapy demonstrated no significant effect on the tumor.
Radical surgical treatment is indicated for malignant cystosarcoma phylloides.

Implications:
