Abstract
Stereotactic radiotherapy body has been implemented in the last decade as a treatment for patients with stage I lung cancer, who are considered inoperable or who reject the surgical procedure. For one of the first patients treated with this technology in our Cancer Center presented; 72 year old man with lung cancer stage I reject the surgical management and underwent radiosurgery treatment and for 2 years follow-up, presented radiographic changes, which were initially interpreted as disease progression. Additionally, a review of the literature related to image interpretation follow-up after treatment is done.
