Outcome of Repeated Resection of Pulmonary Metastases for Renal Cell Cancer

Abstract: Background To date, many studies investigated results and prognostic factors of pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) in renal cell cancer (RCC). However, reports concerning repeated resection for patients with recurrent pulmonary metastases (RPM) are limited. In this study, we analyzed safety, efficacy, and prognostic factors for survival after PM focusing on RPM for RCC. Patients and Methods Clinical, operative, and follow-up data of patients who underwent PM or RPM for RCC in our institution were retrospe… Show more

“…However, the fear of complications should not exclude patients from a potential curative RPM. In the study of Hassan et al and in the current one, the rate of major complications was acceptable [31]. Moreover, it is believed that RPM prolongs survival, as it re-establishes a local control of the tumor disease in the lung and in this way "sets back the clock of the tumor disease" [32].…”

“…Older patients generally have poor cardiopulmonary reserve and are more comorbid than younger ones. For this reason, elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are usually undertreated or treated conservatively only because of their age [ 4 , 5 , 6 ].…”

“…In recent years, improvements in video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) such as uniportal VATS and non-intubated VATS, as well as preoperative tumor localization (e.g., with the placement of wires preoperatively), have extended indications and possibilities for thoracic surgical resections, even for elderly patients. However, open lung resections are still performed whenever it is indicated [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ].…”
