“…[36][37][38] A few series of image-guided ablation of limited metastatic disease have recently been published, including both exclusively osseous metastases and mixed disease. 12,[39][40][41][42] Limited series in the literature show promising local control rates with oligometastatic disease. 19,[43][44][45][46] In 1 series, percutaneous thermal ablation of metastatic spine lesions could achieve a reasonable rate of curative therapy (up to 67% at 1 year 12 ).…”

Clinical reports of limited and treatable cancer metastases, a disease state that exists in a transitional zone between localized and widespread systemic disease, were noted on occasion historically and are now termed oligometastasis. The ramification of a diagnosis of oligometastasis is a change in treatment paradigm, i.e. if the primary cancer site (if still present) is controlled, or resected, and the metastatic sites are ablated (surgically or with radiation), a prolonged disease-free interval, and perhaps even cure, may be achieved. Contemporary molecular diagnostics are edging closer to being able to determine where an individual metastatic deposit is within the continuum of malignancy. Preclinical models are on the outset of laying the groundwork for understanding the oligometastatic state. Meanwhile, in the clinic, patients are increasingly being designated as having oligometastatic disease and being treated owing to improved diagnostic imaging, novel treatment options with the potential to provide either direct or bridging therapy, and progressively broad definitions of oligometastasis.

Patients with non-resectable metastases of various diseases are today treated by one of several different techniques, such as radiofrequency ablation, laser-induced thermoablation or stereotactic radiotherapy. Frequently, the employment of these therapeutic strategies is limited due to their invasiveness and treatment-associated morbidity. Furthermore, stereotactic radiotherapy is associated with a high degree of patient discomfort due to the necessary fixation of moving inner organs (lung, liver). With the development of the cyberknife radiosurgery technique, an image-guided, superselective, robot-based radiotherapy, these problems seem to be resolved. With this technique, metastases may be treated in an outpatient single-treatment setting.
