description A 67-year-old male patient with a massive left axillary metastasis from an occult primary tumor (OPT) treated by stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is presented. The patient had no clinical response to the initial chemotherapy treatment. Then, a SABR with a single fraction of 16Gy was performed. After SABR, a complete response was observed in the imaging exams after 3 months from the procedure. Currently, the patient is found with painfree, without any analgesic drug. The present case illustrates the importance of considering SABR in palliate care, even for a large tumor.
