Image-guided robotic stereotactic radiosurgery for unresectable liver metastases: preliminary results.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of image-guided robotic stereotactic radiosurgery for the local control of unresectable liver metastases from colorectal and non-colorectal cancer. Twenty-seven consecutive patients (median age 62 years, range 47-80 years) with liver metastases considered unsuitable for surgery were enrolled in the study. The diagnosis was colorectal cancer l...
متن کاملWhole brain radiation therapy with or without stereotactic radiosurgery boost for patients with one to three brain metastases: phase III results of the RTOG 9508 randomised trial.
BACKGROUND Brain metastases occur in up to 40% of all patients with systemic cancer. We aimed to assess whether stereotactic radiosurgery provided any therapeutic benefit in a randomised multi-institutional trial directed by the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG). METHODS Patients with one to three newly diagnosed brain metastases were randomly allocated either whole brain radiation ther...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastases.
Worldwide, approximately 100,000 patients have undergone stereotactic radiosurgery for a variety of intracranial lesions, of which brain metastases represent the most common treatment indication. This article summarizes the major issues surrounding the management of brain metastases, and also analyzes 21 independent reports of Gamma Knife- or linear accelerator-based radiosurgery, representing ...
متن کاملPreoperative Stereotactic Radiosurgery of Brain Metastases: Preliminary Results
INTRODUCTION Preoperative stereotactic radiosurgery (pre-SRS) is a recent advancement in the strategy for brain metastasis (BM) management, and available data demonstrate the advantages of pre-SRS before postoperative radiation treatment, including lower rates of local toxicity, leptomeningeal progression, and a high percentage of local control. The authors presented the results of pre-SRS in ...
متن کامل[Stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy for brain metastases].
Brain metastases management is still controversial even though many trials are trying to define the respective roles of neurosurgery, whole-brain radiotherapy, single-dose stereotactic radiotherapy and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy. In this article, we review data from trials that examine the role of radiosurgery and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy in the management of brain met...
