Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Giving radiation therapy after surgery to remove brain metastases may decrease the amount of radiation required to treat brain metastases

PURPOSE Pilot trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy following surgery to remove brain metastases
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Assess the safety and tolerability of focal stereotactic radiotherapy to the surgical bed following excision of cerebral metastases as an alternative to whole brain irradiation II Measure the local relapse rate at the surgical site after surgery and stereotactic radiotherapy in patients with cerebral metastases III Measure the regional relapse rate in the brain but away from the treated site following treatment in these patients

OUTLINE All patients undergo surgical removal of their cerebral metastases followed by adjuvant fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy daily for 5 days Patients are given up to 5 weeks following surgery to recover and reach the required performance status Radiotherapy must commence within 6 weeks of surgery Patients are followed at 2 weeks after treatment monthly for 6 months every 3 months for the next 18 months every 6 months for the next year and then annually for years 3-5

PROJECTED ACCRUAL There will be 20-40 patients accrued into this study
