Brain metastases are a common and devastating complication of cancer. Surgical resection of brain metastases remains an important treatment modality, especially for larger lesions with symptomatic mass effect.

Brain metastases are a common and devastating complication of cancer. Surgical resection of brain metastases remains an important treatment modality, especially for larger lesions with symptomatic mass effect.
