We review a case of inoperable early stage breast cancer treated definitively with the use of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR).

At her 7-month follow up visit, there was a complete resolution of disease on imaging. This case represents a novel approach for the treatment of breast cancer with SABR when surgery is contraindicated.
