Abstract
At present, median survival is about 1 month in untreated patients with intracerebral metastases; 2 months when corticosteroids are added, 3-6 months after whole-brain irradiation (WBI), and 12-16 months if surgery or radiosurgery is used in combination with WBI. The described case demonstrates the efficiency of combined treatment for intracerebral metastases, which comprises surgical removal of metastasis with intraoperative photodynamic therapy for the removed tumor bed. The patient had no recurrent intracerebral metastasis within 23 months after surgery.
