What is the optimal treatment of large brain metastases? An argument for a multidisciplinary approach.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys. 2012; (3): 688-93
Single-modality treatment of large brain metastases (>2 cm) with whole-brain irradiation, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone, or surgery alone is not effective, with local failure (LF) rates of 50% to 90%. Our goal was to improve local control (LC) by using multimodality therapy of surgery and adjuvant SRS targeting the resection cavity.
