Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an emerging treatment option for patients with pancreatic cancer, as it can provide a therapeutic benefit with significant advantages for patients' quality of life over standard conventional chemoradiation (CRT). The objective of this review is to present alternative clinical settings in which SBRT may benefit patients with pancreatic cancer. These include palliation of pain, elderly patients who are not surgical candidates, local therapy in oligometastatic cases and salvaging local failures after surgery or external beam radiation. We will review these individually and provide supporting literature for each.
立体定向体部放疗(SBRT)是胰腺癌患者一种新兴的治疗选择,因为与标准的传统放化疗(CRT)相比,它能提供治疗益处,对患者生活质量有显著优势。本综述的目的是介绍SBRT可能使胰腺癌患者受益的其他临床情况。这些情况包括疼痛缓解、不适合手术的老年患者、寡转移病例的局部治疗以及手术或外照射后挽救局部复发。我们将分别对这些情况进行综述,并为每种情况提供支持性文献。
