Fractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy to Resection Cavities Following Brain Metastasis Surgery: Clinical Outcomes and Challenges

Key Points

• The research aims to evaluate the effects of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy on brain metastasis resection cavities.
• Assessment of clinical outcomes post-surgery for brain metastases
• Application of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy to resection cavities
• Analysis of complications and challenges encountered
• Fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy contributed to improved local control in some cases.
• Several challenges were identified, including potential side effects on surrounding healthy tissue.
• Outcomes varied significantly among different patients due to individual tumor characteristics.
