Current Problems in Cancer, 1999
The topic of brain metastases has recently become a popular subject for review. The reasons for this most likely include technical advances in therapy, notably radiosurgery, as well as recently-published reports of phase III studies, which have addressed certain aspects of management, notably the combination of surgery and radiotherapy in the treatment

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2001
Metastatic tumors to the brain are an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic cancers. Many new therapies used to treat systemic cancers do not penetrate the central nervous system (CNS) and do not protect patients from the development of brain metastases.

Radiotherapy of brain metastases
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1986The effect of radiotherapy in 254 cases of brain metastases, treated between 1977 and 1984, were studied. The cases included 141 of lung cancer, 28 of mammary cancer, and 85 of other primary sites. The percentages of patients with improvement in clinical symptoms were 8, 39, and 66, respectively.

Management of brain metastases
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2009Brain metastases represent a common and devastating complication of cancer. With advances in surgery, radiology, and medical and radiation oncology, the number of treatment options have greatly increased. In addition, the prognosis for patients can vary widely depending on factors such as the number of lesions, extent of extracranial disease, age, and ...

Management of brain metastases
Seminars in Oncology, 2004Patients with brain metastases have a generally poor outcome with a median survival after diagnosis of approximately 4 months. Management of brain metastases involves symptomatic treatment and definitive therapy, with the goal of stabilizing and improving neurologic function and survival. Traditional and novel therapies, including whole-brain radiation

Brain Metastases and Microenvironment
2021The formidable advances in cancer treatment have led to remarkable improvements in patient's survival, so that the major concern shifted from primary tumors to metastatic disease. Brain metastases represent a life-threatening condition with a poor prognosis due to the lack of reliable biomarkers that preclude their timely identification and to the ...

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1983
We reviewed the records of 31 children under the age of 21 years with parenchymal brain metastases diagnosed by CT scan (13 patients) or necropsy (18). Brain metastases were found in 18 of 139 (13%) children with solid tumors in whom complete postmortem examinations were done.

Journal of Neuroimaging, 2011
The hallmark radiological finding in metastatic brain disease is multiple enhancing lesions. We report a case of metastatic lung cancer to the brain with a lack of contrast enhancement. We believe that this unusual finding is due to inadvertent "treatment" of the metastases with the antiangiogenic agent bevacizumab (Avastin).

It is estimated that 170,000 new cases of metastatic brain tumor are diagnosed in the United States each year [1]. As our population ages and oncologists are better able to achieve control of systemic disease, it is likely that the incidence of intracranial metastatatic disease will continue to increase.
