Abstract:
Oligometastasis is an intermediate status between the locally advanced and wide spread disease. Patients with oligometastasis may obtain long-term survival after local treatment. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) can deliver radical ablative doses in a small number of fractions, which is a highly precise local ablation therapy. Approximately half of patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC) will develop metastases, with the liver and lung as the most common site of involvement. In this article, the safety, local efficacy and prognostic factors of SBRT for liver and lung oligometastases from CRC were illustrated. The highlights of SBRT implementation were also discussed. SBRT is safe and effective for oligometastases from CRC under respiratory motion management and robust quality assurance.
