Abstract:
Studies suggest that some patients with synchronous oligometastatic lesions in brain,adrenal gland,lung,et al,may achieve long-term survival via complete resection. Some subgroups of patients with stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ primary lesions, without or with single mediastinal lymph node involvement and with resectable oligometastatic lesions may benefit from surgery. A better understanding of the prognostic factors related may help improve surgical interventions.
