Abstract
INTRODUCTION: In France, approximately 30,000 new patients per year develop brain metastases (BM), most of them resulting from a lung cancer. STATE OF THE ART: Surgery and radiosurgery of all the BM must be considered when possible. In other cases, whole brain radiotherapy remains the standard of care. PERSPECTIVES: The role of chemotherapy, poorly investigated so far, should be revisited.Entities:
