The multidisciplinary management of metastatic soft-tissue sarcomas in adults is capable of salvaging approximately half of the afflicted patients. This management includes preoperative chemotherapy for three months, thoracic surgery, continued chemotherapy, and the use of intrapleural mitoxantrone for once-present malignant pleural effusions or suspected pleural seeding of tumor. Thus, there is a definite role for the inclusion of thoracic surgery in the management of patients with soft-tissue sarcomas in whom pulmonary metastases develop.
成人转移性软组织肉瘤的多学科管理能够挽救约一半的患病患者。这种管理包括为期三个月的术前化疗、胸外科手术、持续化疗，以及对一旦出现的恶性胸腔积液或疑似肿瘤胸膜播散使用胸腔内米托蒽醌。因此，对于发生肺转移的软组织肉瘤患者，胸外科手术在其管理中具有明确的作用。
