OLIGOMETASTATIC PATIENT •

Samuell Hellman (1995) defines an oligometastatic patient as an intermediate state in the development of metastatic disease:

- -

Range from 1 to 5 metastases Limited number of organs

• They achieve longer survival and could have long periods with no evidence of disease after treatment. • Local treatments of the oligometastases could play an important role on the major survival of these patients.
