The role of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in achieving durable local control and palliation of pain in pelvic lymph node oligometastatic disease is not well-studied. We performed a retrospective analysis of 30 patients with 43 pelvic lymph node oligometastases from various primary cancers all but one with non-prostate primaries treated at our institution with SBRT. The median follow-up time was 21 months. The median SBRT dose was 24 Gy in four fractions. The one-, two-, and five-year local control was 74%, 71%, and 70% and one-, two-, and five-year overall survival was 70%, 47%, and 31%. Toxicities were mild with no grade 3 or higher.
