We therefore performed a retrospective analysis of patients treated for >5 brain metastases. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients who underwent treatment for ≥5 brain metastases from October 2000 to September 2010 were identified. Overall survival (OS) for each patient was ...
متن کاملGamma knife radiosurgery after stereotactic aspiration for large cystic brain metastases.
OBJECTIVE Several treatment options have proven effective for metastatic brain tumors, including surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery. Tumors with cystic components, however, are difficult to treat using a single method. We retrospectively assessed the outcome and efficacy of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) for cystic brain metastases after stereotactic aspiration of cystic components to decre...
