An 84-year-old woman presented with a 9mm sized solitary liver metastasis in liver S8 18 months after the surgery for sigmoid colon cancer. The patient was treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy(SBRT)for local control, because the patient chose not to undergo surgery or chemotherapeutic treatment for metastatic liver cancer. SBRT is a minimally invasive treatment with a very short treatment period. Therefore, it may be considered as an alternative treatment for patients who are not suitable for surgery.
一名84岁女性在乙状结肠癌手术后18个月,于肝脏S8区出现一个大小为9毫米的孤立性肝转移瘤。由于患者选择不接受转移性肝癌的手术或化疗,故采用立体定向体部放射治疗(SBRT)进行局部控制。SBRT是一种微创治疗,治疗周期非常短。因此,对于不适合手术的患者,它可被视为一种替代治疗方法。
