The Role of Stereotactic Radiosurgery in Metastasis to the Spine
OBJECTIVE The incidence and prevalence of spinal metastases are increasing, and although the role of radiation therapy in the treatment of metastatic tumors of the spine has been well established, the same cannot be said about the role of stereotactic radiosurgery. Herein, the authors present a systematic review regarding the value of spinal stereotactic radiosurgery in the management of spinal...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery: instrumentation and theoretical aspects-part 1.
In the five decades since its introduction as a concept, radiosurgery has been technically refined to the point where it has revolutionized many aspects of treating central nervous system disease.This article reviews the technical basis of stereotactic radiosurgery as well as the radiobiologic principles underlying its use.
متن کاملSurgical resection of epidural disease improves local control following postoperative spine stereotactic body radiotherapy.
BACKGROUND Spine stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is increasingly being applied to the postoperative spine metastases patient. Our aim was to identify clinical and dosimetric predictors of local control (LC) and survival. METHODS Eighty patients treated between October 2008 and February 2012 with postoperative SBRT were identified from our prospective database and retrospectively reviewe...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for spine tumors: review of current literature.
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SR) is increasingly utilized for the treatment of intracranial and extracranial pathology. It is considered an important adjuvant to surgery, chemotherapy or fractionated radiotherapy, and the role of SR as a primary treatment modality continues to be explored. Although SR for spinal lesions is in its infancy, there is a growing body of literature supporting its effic...
متن کاملCurrent Treatment of Metastatic Spine Tumors - Surgery and Stereotactic Radiosurgery.
There has been significant progress and innovation in the treatment of patients with metastatic spinal tumors over the last two to three decades that has impacted our ability to provide individualized care that improves a patient's quality of life and degree of neurologic impairment. Advances in surgical techniques and radiation delivery modalities have dramatically improved our ability to decr...
