This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and dosimetric features of meningioma patients who received stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) with the CyberKnife-M6 (CK-M6) device in our department. Between January 2019 and February 2022, 31 lesions/26 cases were treated and evaluated in June 2022 with a median follow-up of 12 months (1-40). Median age was 56 (21-84), median KPS was 90 (40-100), and male/female ratio was 9/17. At diagnosis, there were multipl lesions in 4 patients and solitary lesions in 22 patients. Of the 17 patients who underwent surgery at least once, 65% were diagnosed with grade I meningioma and 35% with grade II meningioma. The median Ki-67 was 2.5% (0.8-35 %). There was a history of RT in five cases. The time from diagnosis to SRT was 28 months (1-244). The median lesion size before SRT was 22 mm (6-50) and the planning target volume was 8.24 cc (0.47-63.99). A median of 25 Gy/5 fractions (13-27 Gy/1-5 fx) was administered with a median treatment time of 18 min (13-25). No late side effects and new neurological deficits were observed in any case. At a median of 3 months (1-8), partial response was found to be 16% and stable response was 76%. At the last evaluation, local control was achieved in 88% of the cases. The mean and 2-year overall survival (OS) was 38.5 months and 96.2%. In univariate analysis, KPS ≥ 80 (1 year 100% vs 80%, p=0.04) and the presence of a solitary lesion (1 year 100% vs 66,7%, p =0.006) were found to be significant in terms of OS. CK-M6 increases patient compliance, and also reduces the risk of secondary cancer by reducing treatment duration and body dose. In our cases, 88% local control was achieved and CK-M6 based SRT was found to be effective, safe and comfortable.
