Accelerator-based stereotactic radiosurgery for brainstem metastases.
BACKGROUND Stereotactic radiosurgery represents a noninvasive alternative treatment for intracranial metastases. OBJECTIVE To investigate the treatment outcome of linear accelerator-based stereotactic radiosurgery (linac-SRS) for brainstem metastases. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed our database of patients who were diagnosed with brainstem metastases and underwent linac-SRS between 199...
متن کاملDose-volume effects on brainstem dose tolerance in radiosurgery.
OBJECT Dose-volume data concerning the brainstem in stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for trigeminal neuralgia (TN) were analyzed in relation to associated complications. The authors present their set of data and compare it with currently cited information on brainstem dose tolerance associated with conventional fractionated radiation therapy and hypofractionated radiation treatment of other dise...
متن کاملA Review of the Clinical Outcomes for Patients Diagnosed with Brainstem Metastasis and Treated with Stereotactic Radiosurgery
Only 3%-5% of all brain metastases are located in the brainstem. We present a comprehensive review of the clinical outcomes from modern studies that treated patients with brainstem metastasis using either a Gamma Knife or a linear accelerator-based stereotactic radiosurgery. The median survival time of patients was compared to better understand what clinical or treatment factors are predictive ...
متن کاملGamma Knife Radiosurgery for Hemorrhagic Brainstem Cavernomas.
AIM Effectiveness and safety of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) for hemorrhagic brainstem cavernous malformations (BSCM) is still an unresolved problem. The purpose of this study was to assess treatment results of GKRS for hemorrhagic BSCMs. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective review was performed of patients with hemorrhagic BSCMs who were treated at the Acıbadem Kozyatağı Hospital GKRS uni...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy: background, definitions, applications.
Stereotactic radiosurgery has emerged in recent years as a key treatment technique for a number of intracranial lesions, whether malignant or benign. In this issue of IMAJ, Attia and colleagues present a review of this treatment modality in general, as well as of their own experience [1]. The group from Sheba Medical Center is to be commended for their pioneering role in the introduction of thi...
