[Hypofractionated stereotactic body radiation therapy for adrenal metastases].

Adrenal glands are a common site for metastatic spread since they represent the fourth metastatic site of solid tumors. Interest in local ablative treatments of oligometastases is growing since literature suggests better progression-free survival, quality of life and potentially overall survival in selected patients. Surgery remains the first treatment of adrenal oligometastases because results are good, with a long enough follow-up. However, stereotactic radiotherapy appears to be comparable to surgery and could be proposed to elderly, unfit, inoperable patients, or even to patients whose systemic treatment should not be suspended for too long. This article aims to present a review of published studies to date on stereotactic radiotherapy of adrenal metastases and to propose a treatment protocol.
