Outcome of Repeat Pulmonary Metastasectomy

Pulmonary metastasectomy—is the extent of resection worth reconsidering?

“…Several studies have investigated the benefits of repeated metastasectomy. We could however demonstrate in our own substantial collective that even repeat lung metastasectomy show a survival benefit provided that a close multidisciplinary evaluation has taken place ( 9 ). In this regard it has to be taken into consideration that possibly anatomical resections in the first place could limit the possibility of repeat metastasectomies.…”
