RESUMEN
Ninety patients operated for single cerebral metastasis in the Hospital General de Vigo between 1978 and 1986 were retrospectively studied. All of them also received radiotherapy after surgery. Several prognosis factors were studied with the aim of using them in future patients. The most significant factors were: histologic diagnosis Karnofsky's presurgery index, gap between diagnosis of the primary tumor and the time when the metastasis showed up, age and the TAC's morphology of the metastasis. These results are an important help when considering either surgery or a more conservative attitude.
