Merkel cell tumor (MCT) is extremely rare, being discovered so far about 400 cases in literature. It is classified among neuroendocrine tumors. We report a case of MCT in the subclavicular region in a 93 years old woman. We confirm the efficacy of radiotherapy associated with octreotide, which these tumours express specific receptors for.
