Local Control Failure After Five-Fraction Stereotactic Radiosurgery Alone for Symptomatic Brain Metastasis From Squamous Cell Lung Carcinoma Despite 43 Gy to Gross Tumor Margin With Internal Steep Dose Increase and Tumor Shrinkage During Irradiation

Five-fraction (fr) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is increasingly being applied to large brain metastases (BMs) >2-3 cm in diameter, for which 30-35 Gy is the commonly prescribed dose. Since 2018, to further enhance both safety and efficacy, we have limited the five-fr SRS to approximately ≤3 cm...
