Adding complexity to reaching a diagnosis and treating perineural spread (PNS) is the finding that patients may have no known primary tumor, history of skin cancer, and\/or incidental PNI in the primary tumor. These delays in diagnosis and treatment are further compounded by an already slow disease process and often require multidisciplinary care with combinations of stereotactic radiosurgery, surgical resection, and novel treatments such as checkpoint inhibitors.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n\nMethods: <\/jats:title>\nSix patients with metastatic cancer to the cranial nerves who underwent Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) treatment were chosen for retrospective analysis. This information included age, gender, any past surgeries (both stereotactic and regular surgery), dose of radiation and volume of the tumor treated in the GKRS, date of PNS, comorbidities, the patient follow-up, and pre- and post-GKRS imaging. The goal of the follow-up with radiographing imaging was to assess the efficacy of GKSS.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n\nResults: <\/jats:title>\nThe clinical course of six patients with PNS is presented. Patients followed variable courses with mixed outcomes: two patients remain living, one was lost to follow-up, and three expired with a median survival of 12 months from date of diagnosis. Patients at our institution are ideally followed for life.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n\nConclusion: <\/jats:title>\nGiven the morbidity and mortality of PNS of cancer, time is limited, and further understanding is required to improve outcomes. Here, we provide a case series of patients with PNS treated with stereotactic radiosurgery, discuss their clinical courses, and review the known literature.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.25259\/sni_146_2020","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,25]],"date-time":"2020-07-25T05:46:44Z","timestamp":1595656004000},"page":"206","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.25259\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Neurosurgical management of perineural metastases: A case series and review of the literature"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"John D.","family":"Patterson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthew","family":"Helton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mehdi","family":"Khani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sehrish","family":"Sardar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kevin","family":"Thomas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Edvaldo P.","family":"Galhardo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jose A.","family":"Penagaricano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, H.
