Oligometastasis is a clinical condition characterized by the presence of one to five metastases in a controlled or potentially controllable neoplasm, which can be treated at a local level through ablative therapy. Material and methods. We report the case of a 49 years old male who is diagnosed of a renal cell carcinoma, and presents metastases in the left humerus and the right radius. Two-stage surgery is carried out with the placement of tumor prosthesis in the humerus and reconstruction by using the fibula and osteosynthesis with a plate in the radius. Results. In the course of two years of monitoring, the patient is now disease free at both a local and systemic levels with a good clinical, functional and radiological condition. Conclusions. The management of patients with metastatic cancer has changed. Patients affected by oligometastasis can be treated with oncology surgery with a curative intention, increasing the chances of survival and even achieving the recovery of the patient.
