Abstract: | Surgical treatment of lung metastases from extrathoracic malignancies is an established procedure. Pulmonary metastases are common. Generally, lung metastases are located peripherally and are asymptomatic. Involvement of the bronchial system or infiltration of the chest wall can be symptomatic. The indications for resection are an interdisciplinary decision. Metastasectomy can be with curative or palliative intent. Prerequisitess for pulmonary metastasectomy are primary tumor under control, the absence of extrathoracic metastases, the lack of other promising treatment options, the possibility for complete resection and low perioperative risk. Extra-anatomic resections are common. Perioperative morbidity and mortality is low. A cure is possible in selected patients. |
