Résumé

Small-cell lung cancer is the most aggressive form of lung neoplasia, treated in recent decades with chemoradiotherapy in case of limited stage and chemotherapy alone at the metastatic stage. In the last few years, the advent of immunotherapy has changed the landscape in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer, and to a lesser degree in small-cell lung cancer. Despite the recent advances in research, small-cell lung cancer is still considered an aggressive and lethal disease characterized by high recurrence or metastatic potential. As stereotactic radiotherapy has established itself as the standard of care in the early stage of inoperable non-small-cell lung cancer and in metastatic disease to treat brain and extracranial metastases, these same issues now arise in the management of small-cell lung cancer. This article aims to review the current knowledge and the potential of stereotactic radiotherapy in small-cell lung cancer.
