Cerebral metastases (CM) are a significant complication of cancer, often presenting with neurological symptoms. Despite advances, the prognosis remains poor, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and management.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Neurology
  • Ophthalmology

Context:

  • Cerebral metastases (CM) represent a critical challenge in cancer care, despite the blood-brain barrier.
  • The incidence of CM is increasing, necessitating a thorough understanding of their clinical impact.

Purpose:

  • To review the pathophysiology, etiology, diagnostic methods, and clinical manifestations of CM.
  • To highlight key findings relevant to otoneurophthalmology (ONO).

Summary:

  • CM commonly occur in the cortical and juxtacortical brain regions, leading to seizures, headaches, and neurological deficits.
  • Lung and breast cancers are primary sources, while melanoma exhibits a high metastatic potential.
  • Average survival with CM is approximately three months, underscoring the aggressive nature of the disease.

Impact:

  • CM diagnosis requires consideration in middle-aged and older patients, with lung cancer being a frequent primary site.
  • Physicians play a crucial role in both curative and palliative care strategies for CM patients.
  • Understanding CM is vital for improving patient outcomes and management protocols in oncology and neurology.
