Review Title: Hybrid approaches to local management of pulmonary metastatic disease
Abstract: With increasingly effective systemic therapies for stage IV disease, the addition of local control strategies for a subset of patients with limited metastatic disease has contributed to improved disease control and life prolongation. While surgery has been the mainstay strategy for local control, stereotactic ablative body radiation and percutaneous ablation techniques are alternate methods that have been demonstrated to be safe and effective and offer options to those patients who are unresectable, inoperable, or who do not desire surgery. A hybrid approach combining surgery and radiotherapy can maximize the ability to treat more lesions. Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
