“…With SRS, craniotomy is now not frequently used except for brain metastases larger than 3 cm in size, and rapidly symptomatic lesions with midline shift. 63,64 Brain metastases from renal cell carcinoma were mostly assessed collectively with cerebral lesions from other malignancies. Recommendations for radiotherapy follow the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group RPA developed from brain metastases irrespective of the primary tumour site (RPA class I: Karnofsky performance status ≥70, age <65 years, primary tumour controlled, no extracranial sites; class II: Karnofsky performance status ≥70 with absence of at least one of the other factors; class III: Karnofsky performance status <70).…”

“…Los alcanzan por vía arterial y, contrariamente a lo que sucede con el cáncer de pulmón, mama o melanoma, son más frecuentes los focos únicos. Si bien, en el 95% de los casos se acompaña de enfermedad metastáti-ca extraneural 33,34 . Un 67% de los casos provocan cefalea, déficit motor, desorientación y síntomas más específicos dependiendo de la localización exacta del foco 33 .…”

Un 67% de los casos provocan cefalea, déficit motor, desorientación y síntomas más específicos dependiendo de la localización exacta del foco 33 . La técnica más sensible para valorar las posibilidades quirúrgicas de una metástasis cerebral es la RNM con realce mediante contraste intravenoso.…”

“…Occult brain metastases at the time of diagnosis of mRCC are not uncommon, with an incidence ranging from 2% to 17% [Sheehan et al 2003;Shuch et al 2008]. The consensus appears to be that patients with mRCC may benefit from initial screening in order to identify smaller lesions that are amenable to less invasive treatment, such as stereotactic radiosurgery, as this may increase survival in a select group of patients [Sheehan et al 2003;Shuch et al 2008].…”

However, patients with RCC brain metastasis (RCCBM) often do not fulfill inclusion criteria of clinical trials.…”
