Sorry for being late . The initial histopath was adenoca Stage pT1c N0 M0. was treated outside with PORt. FNAC from lung mass was done in Delhi but the FNA material was not adequate to comment and they have advised repeat FNA ,

Hi sayan,
Palliative RT to the lungs I feel will be beneficial only if the patient is symptomatic from the lung metastasis. Since the patient is young and has a good KPS treatment should be pursued aggressively though with palliative intent. In absence of significant pulmonary comorbidity and a localized leison consideration should be given for a surgical excision as this is a single site of metastasis. The other alternative can be a SBRT of the leison if the patient is not a candidate for surgical excision or refuses a surgery. Palliative local RT can be given in situation where there is a large leison not amenable to resection or SBRT. So as you can see the location and size of the leison as well as her symptom status are important.
Having said that the tempo of the disease does suggest that disease is aggressive and likely to pop up somewhere else some months down the line. So a medical oncology consult would be worthwhile for a 2nd line CCT/ Hormonal option.
P.S. Was the histology reviewed? Can a FNAC from lung leison be obtained?
