Outcome of stereotactic radiosurgery for patients with non-small cell lung cancer metastatic to the brain.
We evaluated the treatment outcome of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone, allowing for salvage with repeat SRS or fractionated radiotherapy, for managing patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). From October 1998 through November 2008, 84 patients with NSCLC metastatic to the brain were treated with linac SRS. The marginal dose of SRS ranged from 12 to 20 Gy. T...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer
PURPOSE Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has been introduced for small-sized single and oligo-metastases in the brain. The aim of this study is to assess treatment outcome, efficacy, and prognostic variables associated with survival and intracranial recurrence. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study retrospectively reviewed 123 targets in 64 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated w...

Background: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death worldwide with an annual mortality rate of more than 1.3 million worldwide. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in west of Iran. Methods: 64 patients with NSCLC who referred to our clinic were analyzed. Sex, age, histopathology, location of the tumor, treatment,...
متن کاملUpfront stereotactic radiosurgery in patients with brain metastases from small cell lung cancer: retrospective analysis of 41 patients
BACKGROUND Although the efficacy of prophylactic or therapeutic whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) for brain metastases (BM) from small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is well established, the role of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has yet to be determined. In the present retrospective analysis, we investigated whether upfront SRS might be an effective treatment option for patients with BM from SCLC. M...
متن کاملOverall and disease-free survival greater than 12 years in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer after linear accelerator-based stereotactic radiosurgery for solitary brain metastasis.
The best treatment approach for solitary brain metastasis is not well defined and there is no consensus on this issue. It is still being debated whether patients with isolated brain metastasis should undergo surgical resection or stereotactic radiosurgery, and which patients should receive adjuvant whole brain radiotherapy. The median survival in patients with single or multiple metastatic lesi...
