Tratamentul local al leziunilor tumorale ajunse la plămâni

Lungs can host cells from tumors elsewhere in the body, and local treatment may complement systemic therapy for limited lesions. Dr. Matei Bâră discusses radiotherapy for pulmonary metastases, which can arise from various cancers. Treatment decisions depend on the primary tumor, lesion characteristics, and overall disease status. Local control through surgery or radiotherapy is possible for a limited number of metastases. Stereotactic techniques allow high radiation doses with precision, minimizing damage to healthy tissue. This approach requires careful imaging and movement control due to breathing. Oncological teams determine suitability based on lesion specifics and prior treatments.
