Historically, metastatic spinal tumors have been treated using open spinal fixation, invasive decompressive techniques, and low-dose palliative conventional external beam radiotherapy. As patients with metastatic disease are now living longer, the need for long-term local tumor control is becoming important. Spine stereotactic body radiotherapy has emerged as a valuable alternative option to achieve long-term local tumor control by delivering high doses of radiation to tumors and sparing the spinal cord.
