Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2001
The management of single brain metastases has evolved substantially over the last decade. The advent of triple-dose contrast-enhanced MRI scans has improved the radiologists' capacity to resolve small tumors, and, thereby, has resulted in a declining percentage of brain metastases classified as single.

Neurosurgery, 1979
Abstract An overview of brain metastasis with respect to the pathological, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects is presented. Management is almost always palliative, with cure being a rare exception. Evaluation of various therapeutic modalities—radiation, chemotherapy, or surgery—has been confounded by a lack of controlled, randomized ...

Brain metastasis from melanoma
Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 1983Eighty-one patients with brain metastasis from melanoma were identified at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) between 1978 and 1980. Of 78 evaluable patients, 51 (65%) had multiple brain metastases. Of 64 patients with non-contrast CT scans, 29% had hemorrhagic metastases. Leptomeningeal metastases were found in 15 patients.

Demographics of Brain Metastasis
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1996Brain metastases are the most common intracranial tumor, significantly out-numbering primary brain tumors. The apparent increase in the ratio of brain metastases to primary tumors may be the result of a number of factors, including the possibility of a CNS "pharmacologic sanctuary," an aging population, and improved imaging studies.

Brain metastasis in hypernephroma
Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 1987Of 926 patients with hypernephroma, 36 (3.9%) had metastasis to the brain. The median age at presentation was 61 years (range, 34 to 82). Nineteen patients had a single lesion metastatic to the brain, and 16 of these lesions were supratentorial. In 28% of the patients, computed tomography showed hyperdense lesions before contrast material was injected.

Brain metastasis of choriocarcinoma
Surgical Neurology, 1982Twenty-four patients with histologically verified brain metastasis of choriocarcinoma were analyzed regarding autopsy and operative findings, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, method of treatment, and prognosis. The autopsy incidence of brain metastasis was 66.7% in patients with choriocarcinoma, and the predominance of single brain lesions was confirmed.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2012
Brain metastases are a common clinical problem, and only limited treatment options exist. We review recent advances in medical brain metastasis research with a focus on the most common tumor types associated with secondary brain colonization: melanoma, breast cancer and lung cancer.

Brain Metastasis From Prostatic Cancer
Journal of Urology, 1983AbstractFour cases of prostatic carcinoma with metastasis to brain are described. Two of those cases are diagnosed antemortem. Our experience from postmortem case studies and review of the literature point to the fact that metastasis to brain from a prostatic cancer remains a rare occurrence.

Nanomaterials for brain metastasis
Journal of Controlled ReleaseTumor metastasis is a significant contributor to the mortality of cancer patients. Specifically, current conventional treatments are unable to achieve complete remission of brain metastasis. This is due to the unique pathological environment of brain metastasis, which differs significantly from peripheral metastasis.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978
To the Editor.— As Wittes and Yeh (238:506-507, 1977) indicate, evaluation for brain and liver metastasis remains imprecise when histological confirmation is not obtained. Hansen and Muggia 1 identified liver metastases by peritoneoscopy in one of six patients with small cell cancer who were thought not to have liver metastasis based on clinical ...
