A case is reported of prolonged survival after radical hysterectomy for poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the endometrium and resection of metastatic carcinoma of the brain followed by radiation therapy. The 43-year-old patient has survived for seven years after hysterectomy and six years 10 months after excision of the brain metastasis. Our results show that the surgical excision of a single metastatic lesion of the brain with postoperative irradiation offers hope of prolonged survival in patients with a solitary brain metastasis and no evident systemic disease.
本文报告了一例子宫内膜低分化腺癌根治性子宫切除术后，脑转移癌切除并接受放疗后长期存活的病例。这位43岁的患者子宫切除术后存活了7年，脑转移瘤切除术后存活了6年10个月。我们的结果表明，对于单发脑转移且无明显全身疾病的患者，手术切除单个脑转移瘤并术后放疗可带来长期存活的希望。
