Brain metastases from cervical cancer are uncommon and are usually considered incurable. Characterization of presentation and a consensus on standard effective treatment have not been published. We present a case in which long-term disease-free survival has been achieved by surgical resection of a solitary brain metastasis with postoperative whole brain radiation. The world literature is examined and discussed in relation to this experience.
宫颈癌脑转移并不常见,通常被认为无法治愈。目前尚未发表关于其临床表现特征及标准有效治疗方法的共识。我们报告了一例通过手术切除孤立性脑转移瘤并术后进行全脑放疗实现长期无病生存的病例。结合这一病例经验对世界文献进行了回顾和讨论。
