Abstract:
Patients with pulmonary metastasis from colorectal cancer have been considered to be associated with poor prognosis. It is a problem to improve survival for patients who suffer pulmonary metastasis from colorectal cancer by analyzing the prognosis of patients who underwent pulmonary surgery or not and then choose the right treatment regimen. The identification of prognostic factors is particularly important in colorectal cancer patients with pulmonary metastasis.
