“…13,14 Similarly, some studies found no survival difference according to nodal status, 5,20 whereas other studies demonstrate longer survival in lymph node negative patients compared with lymph node positive patients. 9,10 In this study age was also significant for survival in patients undergoing treatment of their brain metastases. On the basis of our results, we recommend that selected patients less than 65-years-old with stage I/II thoracic disease, who are eligible to undergo aggressive cranial treatment, should also be considered for radical thoracic treatment.…”

“…Other authors have reported similar findings in selected patients, with OS ranging from 12.4 to 24 months, 1-year survival rates from 35% to 80%, and 5-year survivals from 25% to 70%. 4,9,10,14,[18][19][20] (Most studies reported that the prognosis of patients undergoing surgical resection for a synchronous BM from NSCLC mainly depended on the treatment of the lung tumor, with a survival advantage seen in patients receiving radical treatment (surgery or radiotherapy). 12,14,21 After SRS for solitary synchronous BM from NSCLC, a significantly longer OS (26.4 months) was similarly seen in patients who underwent radical thoracic treatment (surgery or chemoradiotherapy) than those undergoing palliative treatment (13.1 months).…”

“…These patients may benefit from surgical resection of the primary tumor and its metastasis. Several retrospective case studies have documented an improved outcome in patients treated surgically, but most studies reported only on isolated metastasis of the brain or adrenal gland [7][8][9][10]. Therefore, it is unknown whether patients with an isolated metastasis in other locations also benefit from this aggressive approach.…”

“…Therefore, it is unknown whether patients with an isolated metastasis in other locations also benefit from this aggressive approach. Recently, Salah et al reviewed 51 cases to analyze the outcome of extrapulmonary, extracerebral, and extraadrenal oligometastatic NSCLC [7][8][9][10][11]. The 5-year overall survival rate was 50 %, which implies a high publication bias.…”
