DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noae165.1132
Abstract: Recurrent brain metastases (rBM) after previous radiosurgery present a clinical dilemma, as the advantages of reirradiation need to be weighed against the potential of significant radiation toxicity. Salvage resection with Cs-131 brachytherapy offers improved dosimetry… read more here.

SURG-54. RECURRENT BRAIN METASTASES (RBM) TREATED WITH SURGICALLY TARGETED RADIATION THERAPY (START): PRELIMINARY SAFETY EVALUATION FROM A MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL PROSPECTIVE REGISTRY
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Neuro-Oncology"
DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noae165.1133
Abstract: Resection and intraoperative brachytherapy for operable recurrent brain metastasis allows for pathologic confirmation of recurrent disease, mass effect relief, and immediate initiation of radiotherapy (RT). In this analysis, we report patterns-of-use and treatment-related adverse events… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noaf201.0420
Abstract: The optimal management of previously irradiated recurrent brain metastases is a challenging clinical scenario and despite several salvage strategies, to date no prospective, multi-institutional outcomes for surgically targeted radiation therapy (STaRT) have been reported. We… read more here.
