Stereotactic radiosurgery is used for treating several brain diseases. Radiosurgery is a non-invasive alternative to surgery for brain metastases, and randomized trials are on going to assess the role of radiosurgery. Radiosurgery has been advocated for patients with small benign meningioma or with vestibular schwannoma, but there is no proof of efficacy and safety of radiosurgery in comparison with other treatments. Radiosurgery can obliterate 80-90% of small arteriovenous malformations, but no information exists on the survival of treated compared with untreated patients. The limited information available suggests that radiosurgery should be fully evaluated in well-designed prospective studies.
