Treatment of brain metastases in renal cell carcinoma: radiotherapy, radiosurgery, or surgery?

Alexander Muacevic1, Michael Siebels, Jörg-Christian Tonn, Berndt Wowra.   

Abstract

Metastases from renal cell carcinoma raise specific therapeutic problems because they are relatively unresponsive to whole brain radiation therapy and tend to bleed. Recently, stereotactically guided high-precision irradiation as a single dose application (radiosurgery) showed promising treatment results for selected patients with brain metastases from renal cell carcinoma. Radiosurgery appears attractive due to its low risk and minimal invasiveness. Multiple lesions can be treated at the same time and retreatments can be performed for local or distant recurrences.
