From 1962 to 1982, 27 patients with pulmonary metastases as the only site of recurrent colorectal carcinoma underwent pulmonary resection at Roswell Park Memorial Institute. Only five of these patients had symptomatic pulmonary lesions. No postoperative mortality occurred. The median survival after pulmonary resection was 27 months. Five patients are alive presently without recurrent colorectal cancer and two patients are alive with recurrent pulmonary metastases. Patients with solitary lesions had a better survival than patients with multiple lesions. The major sites of recurrence following thoracotomy were the lungs and liver.
1962年至1982年期间，27例以肺转移作为复发性结直肠癌唯一部位的患者在罗斯威尔公园纪念研究所接受了肺切除术。这些患者中只有5例有症状性肺部病变。无术后死亡发生。肺切除术后的中位生存期为27个月。目前有5例患者存活且无复发性结直肠癌，2例患者存活但有复发性肺转移。孤立性病变患者的生存期优于多发病变患者。开胸术后复发的主要部位是肺和肝。
