R. Bentahila et al., « Re-irradiation of recurrent vertebral metastasis after two previous spinal cord irradiation: A case report. », Serveur académique Lausannois, ID : 10.3389/fonc.2022.995376
Management of a recurrent vertebral metastasis in a situation of previously irradiated spinal cord is a challenging clinical dilemma. We report a first case of second retreatment of a spinal metastasis initially irradiated with standard radiotherapy and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), who subsequently progressed with imaging-confirmed local tumor progression at the same level. After a third course of irradiation with SBRT, a complete response was achieved. After 8 months of follow-up, the patients remain free of local recurrence. A third course of vertebral irradiation for a recurrent vertebral metastasis failing to two previous irradiations, in this particular case, have shown the feasibility and efficacy of the technique as a salvage treatment option. This approach could be used in a selected group of patient if an adequate dose is delivered to the target while observing critical tissue tolerance limits.
