Original Title: Radioterapia estereotáxica extracraneal en oligometástasis
Authors' recommendations: Moderate-quality evidence shows that extracranial stereotactic body radiotherapy potentially results in a higher net benefit by increasing overall survival after five years in patients with oligometastasis regardless of the type of primary tumor without affecting quality of life. It might also decrease the rate of progression in patients with oligometastatic androgen-sensitive prostate cancer. The economic evaluations surveyed suggest that extracranial stereotactic body radiotherapy might be more cost-effective in patients with metastatic spread of primary lung adenocarcinoma than segmentectomy but it would not be cost-effective in other histologies or in lung metastasis resulting from colorectal cancer. The clinical practice guidelines assessed recommend the use of extracranial stereotactic body radiotherapy in patients with lung metastases resulting from colorectal cancer. Health funders from Europe and the United States cover this technology in lung and liver metastases. In some cases, coverage is also extended to kidney, adrenal gland and pancreas metastasis.
