Abstract

Metastasis develops in 25-40% of breast cancer patients beyond their disease process. The prognosis of metastatic breast cancer differs depending on various factors. The evaluation of the patient and the decision of the treatment must be individualized. Locally treatment of oligometastatic breast cancer is, radical treatment including surgery and/or radiation therapy, if the patient has good performance status. Radiation therapy which can be applied with different fractionation schedules and dose concepts, provides effective symptom palliation on patients with bone or brain metastasis.

Özet

Meme kanserli hastaların %25-40ında hastalık süreci boyunca metastazgelişmektedir. Metastatik meme kanserinde prognoz pek çok faktöre bağlıolarak değişmektedir. Her hasta için bireysel değerlendirme ve tedavi kararıönemlidir. Oligometastatik olarak nitelendirilen, soliter veya birkaç tanemetastatik lezyonu olan genç yaşta ve performansı iyi olan metastatik memekanserli hastaların lokal (meme ve lenfatik) tedavisinde günümüz içinönerilen tedavi cerrahi ve/veya radyoterapidir. Kemik metastazları ya dabeyin metastazları olan hastalarda, farklı fraksinasyon şemaları ileuygulanabilen lokal radyoterapi ile oldukça etkin semptom palyasyonusağlanabilmektedir.
