Staged Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Large Brain Metastases: Local Control and the Influence of Systemic Treatment

Staged Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Large Brain Metastases: Local Control and the Influence of Systemic Treatment

This is the largest study on SGKRS for large BM and the only one to evaluate the effect of concurrent or adjuvant systemic treatment. The findings of this retrospective cohort study of patients with large BM indicate that treatment with SGKRS results in high local control at 12 months (83 %). Receiving any type of concurrent or adjuvant systemic treatment further improves local control in compared to receiving no systemic treatment.
