Core Tip |
Systemic chemotherapy has enabled prolongation of survival in patients with stage Ⅳ colorectal cancer. This has subsequently increased the relative significance of local therapy. Resection is the standard therapy in most settings. Recently, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) provides high local control with minimal morbidity, both in the curative and palliative setting. The indications of SBRT include liver, lung, isolated lymph nodes, spinal and adrenal metastasis, and post-surgical pelvic recurrence. However, few reports with a high level of evidence have indicated the efficacy of SBRT. Hereafter, the optimal indication of SBRT needs to be prospectively investigated to obtain convincing evidence. |
