摘要

While metastatic breast cancer is a systemic disease in most patients, there is a smaller subset of patients who suffer from oligometastatic disease defined by single or few resectable metastases. After verification of disease stabilization by systemic therapy, ra-coregional treatment such as surgery or radiation can be applied. While large prospective trials are missing to support the beneficial effect of this strategy, retrospective analyses are highly suggestive offering rapid disease control and even long-term survival in selected patients.
