Dural metastases in breast cancer: progression pattern, treatment and prognosis—a single center experience
Dural metastases can occur as a subsequent event in patients with poorly controlled extensive bone metastases, with the frontoparietal area being the most commonly involved site. Radiotherapeutic strategy is highly influenced by the associated metastatic volume of DM, and radiotherapy was found to improve prognosis in these patients.
