Résumé

Hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HFSRT) is indicated for large brain metastases (BM) or proximity to critical organs (brainstem, chiasm, optic nerves, hippocampus). The primary aim of this study was to assess factors influencing BM local control after HFSRT. Then the effect of surgery plus HFSRT was compared with exclusive HFSRT on oncologic outcomes, including overall survival.
