Abstract
THE RECENT increasing incidence of aggressive surgery for pulmonary metastases of a variety of primary tumor sites has resulted in prolonged survival in some patients with such diseases.1-9 At our institution, metastasectomy for pulmonary metastases in more than 250 cases has been performed with modifications and advances in surgical techniques, and a portion of this population may be cured.8Keywords
