摘要
Stereotactic radiotherapy is a very hypofractionated radiotherapy (>7.5Gy per fraction), and therefore is more likely to induce late toxicities than conventional normofractionated irradiations. The present study examines four frequent and potentially serious late toxicities: brain radionecrosis, radiation pneumonitis, radiation myelitis, and radiation-induced pelvic toxicities. The critical review focuses on the toxicity scales, the definition of the dose constrained volume, the dosimetric parameters, and the non-dosimetric risk factors. The most commonly used toxicity scales remain: RTOG/EORTC or common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE). The definition of organ-at-risk volume requiring protection is often controversial, which limits the comparability of studies and the possibility of accurate dose constraints. Nevertheless, for the brain, whatever the indication (arteriovenous malformation, benign tumor, metastasis of solid tumors...), the association between the volume of brain receiving 12Gy (V12Gy) and the risk of cerebral radionecrosis is well established for both single and multi-fraction stereotactic irradiation. For the lung, the average dose received by both lungs and the V20 seem to correlate well with the risk of radiation-induced pneumonitis. For the spinal cord, the maximum dose is the most consensual parameter. Clinical trial protocols are useful for nonconsensual dose constraints. Non-dosimetric risk factors should be considered when validating the treatment plan.
