Gamma Knife surgery for cerebral metastases. Implications for survival based on 16 years experience.

L Kihlström1, B Karlsson, C Lindquist.   

Abstract

Our experience with radiosurgery of brain metastases is based on 160 patients with 235 tumors treated over a 16-year period. In this material, 94% growth control was achieved. Radiosurgery appears to be an effective, low-morbidity substitute for surgical resection followed by whole brain radiotherapy and even indicated for multiple metastases and distant new tumors. More patients receive an effective treatment with less neurologically related deaths.
