Abstract
We retrospectively reviewed 88 patients with oligometases in the para-aortic region from any controlled primary tumor site who were treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). The 5-year local control, disease-free survival, and overall survival rates were 83%, 31%, and 41%, respectively. A 90% tumor-control probability was predicted at a biological effective dose of 90 Gy. Severe gastrointestinal toxicities (grade ≥3) were observed in 2 of 88 patients (1%). The results of this study are limited by the retrospective nature of the study but could serve as the background and rationale for future prospective trials on SBRT-based treatment for oligometastses.
