Overview

Review highlights neoadjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastases, suggesting potential benefits and challenges involved.

Key Points

  • Neoadjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery shows comparable outcomes for local control and survival with postoperative radiation, indicating its effectiveness.
  • Preliminary studies suggest that this approach may lower the risk of leptomeningeal spread and radiation-related complications.
  • The technique’s ability to immobilize intact tumors improves imaging accuracy, which enhances radiation delivery while protecting healthy tissue.
  • Challenges such as lack of histopathological confirmation raise concerns about misdiagnosis, highlighting the need for further research.
