Abstract
Thirty-four breast cancer patients with single brain metastases were reviewed: 9 underwent surgical removal only and 25 surgical removal and radiotherapy. A longer survival was seen in patients who underwent surgical removal and radiotherapy, with a mean survival of 28 months. In the 9 patients who did not receive whole brain radiotherapy, the mean survival was 15 months and there was an higher frequency of brain relapse.
