Radiotherapy Modality and Prognosis in Patients with Multiple Brain Metastases

    Graphical Abstract
    • Abstract
  • Objective 　To study radiotherapy modality and prognosis in patients with multiple brain metastases. Methods 　One hundred and twelve patients with multiple brain metastases were treated with WBRT, SRS/ SRT, WBRT plus SRS/ SRT differently, the median survival time and the lethality of brain metastases were analyzed. Results 　The median survival time was 3. 8 months, 7. 8 months and 8. 0 months in WBRT, SRS/ SRT and WBRT plus SRS/ SRT differently. the lethality of brain metastases was 67. 7 %, 15. 7 %, and 11. 6 % in WBRT, SRS/ SRT, WBRT plus SRS/ SRT. Conclusion 　SRS/ SRT and WBRT plus SRS/ SRT can improve local control and ultimate outcome in patient s with less brain metastases numbers.
