The purpose of this study is to analyze treatment outcomes related to tumor bed boost of postoperative radiation therapy in patient with HER2+ breast cancer who underwent breast conserving surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: * 7-year ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence * 7-year disease-free survival * 7-year locoregional recurrence * 7-year overall survival * Adverse events of radiation therapy Participants will be assessed by multi-dimensional methods after radiation therapy: * Assessment for the disease status (disease-free or recurrence) including physical and radiologic examination * Assessment for the adverse events according to CTCAE version 5.0

RECRUITINGIpsilateral breast tumor recurrence
The event for ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) was defined as any breast tumor recurrence in irradiated breast.
Time frame: 7 years from the start of the postoperative radiation therapy
Disease-free survival
The event for disease-free survival (DFS) was defined as any local, regional, or distant recurrence or breast cancer-related death.
Time frame: 7 years from the start of the postoperative radiation therapy
Locoregional recurrence
The event for locoregional recurrence was defined as recurrence in irradiated breast / chest wall or regional lymph node area.
Time frame: 7 years from the start of the postoperative radiation therapy
Overall survival
The event for overall survival (OS) was defined as death of any cause.
Time frame: 7 years from the start of the postoperative radiation therapy
Adverse events
Adverse events were evaluated and graded according to CTCAE version 5.0.
Time frame: 7 years from the start of the postoperative radiation therapy
