ABSTRACT
Solitary brain metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients was previously considered as Stage IV. Gen-erally, only chemotherapy or radiotherapy rather than surgery was considered the treatment for these patients;hence, achieving the de-sired effect was difficult. In recent years, the treatment benefit for these patients significantly increased. Several patients were even pro-vided the chance of being cured through standardized and individualized treatment by a multiple disciplinary team (MDT). This article introduces two solitary brain metastasis patients with NSCLC who were treated by MDT in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital. This article aims to explore a complete set of diagnostic and treatment practices for the benefit of more patients.
