Place de la radiothérapie panencéphalique dans les métastases cérébrales
چکیده انگلیسی
Brain metastases are the leading cause of intracranial malignancy and a major cause of mortality and morbidity. From 20 to 40% of cancer patients develop brain metastases. The irradiation of the whole brain remains the most commonly undertaken treatment, but should be discussed in relation to other therapeutic alternatives such as stereotactic radiotherapy or the use of new chemotherapy drugs. Its use according to pathology should be discussed. It can lead to a long-term neurocognitive toxicity that should be evaluated more precisely. This literature review aims to highlight the role of whole-brain radiotherapy used alone or in combination with other treatments.
