Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is commonly used in the treatment of brain metastases, benign tumors, and arteriovenous malformations (AVM). Single-fraction radiosurgery, though ubiquitous, is limited by lesion size and location. In these cases, hypofractionated radiosurgery (hfSRS) offers comparable efficacy and toxicity. We review the recent literature concerning hfSRS in the treatment of brain metastases, benign tumors, and AVMs that are poorly suited for single-fraction SRS. Published retrospective analyses suggest that local control rates for brain metastases and benign tumors, as well as the rates of AVM obliteration, following hfSRS treatment are comparable to those reported for single-fraction SRS. Additionally, the toxicities from hypofractionated treatment appear comparable to those seen with single-fractioned SRS to small lesions.
