THE EFFICIENCY OF STEREOTAXIC RADIOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH LIVER METASTASES

https://doi.org/10.16931/1995-5464.2016138-43

Abstract

Aim. To determine the effectiveness of stereotaxic radiotherapy  in patients with liver metastases.

Material and Methods. Stereotaxic radiotherapy of liver metastatic tumors was carried out in three fractions for 5–8 days with single focal dose of 10, 12, 15, or 20 Gy. The procedure  was performed in 66 patients including 40 (60.5%) women and  26 (39.5%) men.  The  average age was 60 years (37–82). In  24 (36.5%) cases primary  tumor  was presented  by colorectal cancer, in 12 (18%) – breast cancer, in 7 (10.5%) – ovarian cancer and in 23 (35%) – other malignant tumors.

Results. Median  follow-up was 14.5 months  (range 1.8–53.5).  3 patients did not present data of control  examination. Among other 63 patients full effect was established in 16 (25.5%) cases, in 30 (47.5%) patients – partial regression of metastases,  in 11 (17.5%) – stabilization,  in 6 (9.5%) – progression of tumoral  process. Thus,  local control  rate was 90.5%. Degree III of radiation damage was reported in 2 cases (3%), II – in 7 cases (11%).

Conclusion. Stereotaxic  radiotherapy  seems highly effective and  safe method  of the  treatment of patients  with liver metastases and can be recommended for use in patients with limited liver metastases who have been denied in surgery.
