Lung Resection for Colorectal Metastases: 10-Year Results
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Metastasectomy for colorectal carcinoma to the lung is controversial. We analyzed results of this approach to justify its credibility. METHODS: We studied 144 patients by retrospective review after complete resection of lung metastases from colorectal cancer from 1965 through 1988. Patient selection and prognostic factors influencing survival were analyzed. Survival was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method, and comparisons were made by log-rank analysis. RESULTS: A total of 170 thoracotomies were performed in 144 patients. The overall 5- and 10-year survival was 40% and 30%, respectively. Those patients undergoing complete resection of their metastases survived significantly longer than those undergoing incomplete resections. CONCLUSION: It appears that resection of pulmonary metastases from colorectal carcinoma translates into long-term survival benefit.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
