Treatment of early stage non-small cell lung cancer: surgery or stereotactic ablative radiotherapy?
The management of early-stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) has improved recently due to advances in surgical and radiation modalities. Minimally-invasive procedures like Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy decreases the morbidity of surgery, while the numerous methods of staging the mediastinum such as endobronchial and endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsies are helping t...

متن کاملNon-surgical treatment of lung cancer: personalised stereotactic ablative radiotherapy.
Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy has emerged as a standard treatment for medically inoperable stage I non-small-cell lung cancer and selected cases of lung metastasis. Techniques to freeze or limit tumour movement during treatment and image-guided radiation delivery are integral to a successful stereotactic ablative treatment without overdose of surrounding normal structures. In this article,...
متن کاملStereotactic radiotherapy for early stage non-small cell lung cancer
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) represents a consolidated treatment option for patients with medically inoperable early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The clinical evidence accumulated in the past decade supports its use as an alternative to surgery with comparable survival outcomes. Due to its limited toxicity, SBRT is also applicable to elderly patients with very poor baselin...
