Abstract Purpose: This study aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of salvage surgical resection (SSR) after stereotactic radiosurgery and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRS/fSRT) for brain metastasis.Methods: Between November 2009 and December 2018, we treated 427 consecutive patients with 919 lesions with SRS/fSRT for newly diagnosed brain metastasis at our hospital. During the follow-up period, we treated 19 consecutive patients who underwent 21 SSRs for recurrence, radiation necrosis (RN), and cyst formation after SRS/fSRT for newly diagnosed brain metastasis. Two patients underwent multiple surgical resections. Brain metastasis originated from the lung (n=15, 78.9%), breast (n=3, 15.7%), and colon (n=1, 5.2%). Results: The median time from initial SRS/fSRT to SSR was 14 months (range: 2–96 months). The median follow-up after SSR was 15 months (range: 2–76 months). The range of tumor volume at initial SRS/SRT was 0.121–21.459 cm3 (median: 2.188 cm3). Histopathological diagnosis after SSR was recurrence, RN and cyst formation in 13 and 6 cases, respectively. The median survival time from SSR and from initial SRS/SRT was 17 months and 74 months, respectively. The cases with recurrence had a significantly shorter survival time than those without recurrence (p=0.0453).Conclusion: The patients treated with SRS/fSRT for brain metastasis need long-term follow-up. SSR is a safe and effective treatment for the recurrence, RN, and cyst formation after SRS/fSRT for brain metastasis.

Background: This study aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of salvage surgical resection (SSR) after stereotactic radiosurgery and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRS/fSRT) for newly diagnosed brain metastasis. Methods: Between November 2009 and May 2020, 318 consecutive patients with 1114 brain metastases were treated with SRS/fSRT for newly diagnosed brain metastasis at our hospital. During this study period, 21 of 318 patients (6.6%) and 21 of 1114 brain metastases (1.9%) went on to receive SSR after SRS/fSRT. Three patients underwent multiple surgical resections. Twenty-one consecutive patients underwent twenty-four SSRs. Results: The median time from initial SRS/fSRT to SSR was 14 months (range: 2–96 months). The median follow-up after SSR was 17 months (range: 2–78 months). The range of tumor volume at initial SRS/fSRT was 0.12–21.46 cm3 (median: 1.02 cm3). Histopathological diagnosis after SSR was recurrence in 15 cases, and radiation necrosis (RN) or cyst formation in 6 cases. The time from SRS/fSRT to SSR was shorter in the recurrence than in the RNs and cyst formation, but these differences did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.067). The median survival time from SSR and from initial SRS/fSRT was 17 and 74 months, respectively. The cases with recurrence had a shorter survival time from initial SRS/fSRT than those without recurrence (p = 0.061). Conclusions: The patients treated with SRS/fSRT for brain metastasis need long-term follow-up. SSR is a safe and effective treatment for the recurrence, RN, and cyst formation after SRS/fSRT for brain metastasis.

Abstract Methods: Between November 2009 and December 2018, 335 consecutive patients with 1085 brain metastases were treated with SRS/fSRT for newly diagnosed brain metastasis at our hospital. Nineteen of 335 patients (5.6%) and 19 of 1044 brain metastases (1.8%) went on to receive SSR after SRS/fSRT during this study period. Two patients underwent multiple surgical resections. Nineteen consecutive patients underwent 21 SSRs. Results: The median time from initial SRS/fSRT to SSR was 14 months (range: 2–96 months). The median follow-up after SSR was 15 months (range: 2–76 months). The range of tumor volume at initial SRS/fSRT was 0.12–21.46 cm3 (median: 2.19 cm3).

Introduction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of introduction of early surgery in the course of isolated ileocecal Crohn’s disease, where there is no absolute indication of surgery. Methods. Observational study involving patients with isolated ileocecal Crohn’s disease who underwent early surgical resection (within one year of the presentation of the hospital). A complete blood count, ESR, and CRP were done and compared between the preoperative value, 1st postoperative visit (3-4 weeks), and last follow-up visit. Statistical analysis was done using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to compare the different figures. Results. There was a statistically significant increase in the hemoglobin levels between preoperative, postoperative, and long-term follow-up and a significant decrease in leukocyte count between the pre- and postoperative values (F=19.8, p<0.001 and F=8.9, p=0.002, resp.). Similarly, the ESR and CRP values were decreased significantly at long-term follow-up (F=8.5, p=0.019 and F=8.3, p=0.013, resp.). Conclusion. Early surgical resection in isolated ileocaecal Crohn’s disease achieved significant biochemical improvements. These successful results in this small number of patients indicate that early surgical intervention may provide better outcomes. These initial results encourage larger and comparative studies of long-term results versus long-term use of biological agents.
