Radical skeletal metastatic site irradiation in high-risk neuroblastoma: systematic review and proposal for a randomised trial
Abstract:Aim: Neuroblastoma has a variable outcome depending on age, stage, and molecular pathology. Distant metastatic disease is the central feature of high-risk disease. Recommendations for irradiating persistent metastatic deposits with curative intent after systemic therapy vary. It is unclear to what extent this practice may improve local control or survival. This study systematically reviewed the evidence for skeletal metastatic site irradiation and made evidence-based recommendations for clinical practice.
