- W2004595763 abstract "Purpose: Despite increased utilization of fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), the incidence and nature of immediate side effects (ISE) associated with these treatment techniques are not well defined. We report immediate side effects from a series of 78 patients. Materials and Methods: Intracranial lesions in 78 adult patients were treated with SRT or SRS, using a dedicated linear accelerator. Those lesions included 13 gliomas, 2 ependymomas, 19 metastatic tumors, 15 meningiomas, 12 acoustic neuromas, 4 pituitary adenomas, 1 optic neuroma, 1 chondrosarcoma, and 11 arteriovenous malformations (AVM). SRT was used in 51 and SRS in 27 patients. Mean target volume was 9.0 cc. Eleven patients received prior external-beam radiation therapy within 2 months before SRT/SRS. Any side effects occurring during and up to 2 weeks after the course of radiation were defined as ISE and were graded as mild, moderate, or severe. The incidence of ISE and the significance of their association with several treatment and pretreatment variables were analyzed. Results: Overall, 28 (35%) of 78 patients experienced one or more ISE. Most of the ISE (87%) were mild, and consisted of nausea (in 5), dizziness/vertigo (in 5), seizures (in 6), and new persistent headaches (in 17). Two episodes of worsening neurological deficit and 2 of orbital pain were graded as moderate. Two patients experienced severe ISE, requiring hospitalization (1 seizure and 1 worsening neurological deficit). ISE in 6 cases prompted computerized tomography of the brain, which revealed increased perilesional edema in 3 cases. The incidence of ISE by diagnosis was as follows: 46% (6 of 13) for gliomas, 50% (6 of 12) for acoustic neuromas, 36% (4 of 11) for AVM, 33% (5 of 15) for meningiomas, and 21% (4 of 19) for metastases. A higher incidence of dizziness/vertigo (4 of 12 = 33%) was seen among acoustic neuroma patients than among other patients (p < 0.01). There was no significant association of dizziness/vertigo with either a higher average and maximum brainstem dose (p = 0.74 and 0.09, respectively) or with 2-Gy equivalents of the average and maximum brainstem doses (p = 0.28 and 0.09, respectively). Higher RT dose to the margin and higher maximum RT dose were associated with a higher incidence of ISE (p = 0.05 and 0.01, respectively). However, when RT dose to the margin was converted to a 2-Gy dose-equivalent, it lost its significance as predictor of ISE (p = 0.51). Recent conventional external-beam radiation therapy, target volume, number of isocenters, collimator size, dose inhomogeneity, prescription isodose, pretreatment edema, dose of prior radiation, fraction size (2.0–7.0 Gy with SRT and 13.0–21.0 Gy with SRS), fractionation schedule, and dose to brainstem were not significantly associated with ISE. ISE occurred in 26% (8) of 31 patients taking corticosteroids prior to SRT/SRS and in 20 (42%) of 47 patients not taking them (p = 0.15). Conclusion: ISE occur in one third of patients treated with SRT and SRS and are usually mild or moderate and self-limited. Dizziness/vertigo are common and unique for patients with acoustic neuromas and are not associated with higher brainstem doses. We are unable to detect a relationship between ISE and higher margin or maximum RT doses. No specific conclusion can be drawn with regard to the effect of corticosteroids, used prior to SRS/SRT, on the occurrence of ISE." @default.
