title: Solitary cerebral metastases from gynaecological malignancy: the case for radical therapy.

Each was treated with surgical resection followed by radical radiotherapy resulting in prolonged disease-free survival. The reasons for the increasing incidence of cerebral metastases in these malignancies is discussed, the case for radical treatment made and the literature reviewed.
