Cystosarcoma phyllodes is an uncommon type of breast tumour. Both benign and malignant types of this tumour have been described. The
majority of studies agree that benign tumours are predominant (approximately 80-85%) and the malignant form only accounts for 15-20%. Of
all types of breast cancers, cystosarcoma phyllodes only accounts for about 1%; however, it is the most frequent non-epithelial breast tumour.
The case report presents a young woman diagnosed with cystosarcoma phyllodes in whom a DIEP flap was used to reconstruct the breast.
