Zusammenfassung: | Micro-Abstract Patient-reported outcomes are increasingly important in the evaluation of cancer treatment modalities. We systematically reviewed the existing published data on patient-reported health-related quality of life (HRQOL) after stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for early-stage non–small-cell lung cancer. Nine studies were analyzed, and our results showed that most HRQOL domains were preserved after SABR. Possible deteriorations in dyspnea and fatigue were noted. |
