Lung cancer with solitary metastasis to the brain has been treated by surgical resection of both lesions over a 25-year period. Survival was 55 per cent at 1 year and 31 per cent at 2 years. Mean survival was 2.3 years, surpassing the 6-month average survival with more conservative therapy. An aggressive surgical approach to lung cancer with solitary cerebral metastasis results in improved survival and a better quality of life.
在25年的时间里，对伴有孤立性脑转移的肺癌患者采用了手术切除两种病灶的治疗方法。1年生存率为55%，2年生存率为31%。平均生存期为2.3年，超过了采用更保守治疗时6个月的平均生存期。对伴有孤立性脑转移的肺癌采取积极的手术方法可提高生存率并改善生活质量。
