Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 1665: Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Patients with Brain Metastases from Hepatopancreaticobiliary Cancers
Conclusions: Metastatic spread to the brain from HPB cancers occurs late in the course of the primary disease. In this study, all deceased patients ultimately died from primary disease progression. SRS is a non-invasive strategy that maximally preserves quality of life, and our results reported favorable outcomes compared to the existing literature. SRS should be considered as one of the primary management strategies for patients with brain metastatic spread from HPB cancer.
