Résumé
The management of patients with brain oligometastases is complex and relies on specific reasoning compared to extracranial oligometastases. The levels of evidence are still low because patients with brain oligometastases are frequently excluded from randomized clinical trials. Stereotactic radiotherapy should be preferred in this indication over whole brain irradiation, both for patients with metastases in place and for those who have undergone surgery. The decision of local treatment and its timing must be a multidisciplinary reflection taking into account the histological and molecular characteristics of the tumor as well as the intracranial efficacy of the prescribed systemic treatments. Great caution must be observed when using stereotactic radiotherapy and concomitant systemic treatments because interactions are still poorly documented. We present the recommendations of the French society of radiation oncology on the management of brain oligometastatic patients with radiotherapy.
