AB  - Patients with an unresectable recurrence of head and neck carcinoma (HNC) have a 
      poor prognosis, with limited treatment options. Recent technical advances allow 
      radiotherapy (RT) to be handled with great precision, making it possible to 
      re-irradiate recurrent tumors by means of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) 
      with high doses of RT while protecting healthy tissues near the tumor. Although 
      this technique has been used to irradiate different primary tumors and their 
      metastases, SBRT in HNC has had a much slower evolution than in the mentioned 
      locations. This is due to the difficulties in re-irradiating the HNC, because of 
      the expected toxicity as it is a relatively small area with dense vascularization 
      and innervation, and where several senses are located. We present the first case 
      of a HNC re-irradiated with SBRT in the Complejo Hospitalario de Navarra; the 
      patient showed a complete response and continues to be disease-free sixteen 
      months after the irradiation.
