Abstract:
Chest wall tumor(CWT) is a heterogeneous tumor involving multiple systems, including primary and secondary tumors. Chest wall tumors should first be classified according to their histological origin before distinguishing between benign and malignant. Except for a very few malignant tumors, surgical resection is the first choice for the treatment of chest wall tumors. However, chest wall tumors are different from other tumors in that resection of these tumors will compromise the integrity and stability of the chest wall, which makes it necessary before surgery to evaluate not only whether the tumor can be resected, but also the necessity and feasibility of postoperative chest wall reconstruction. With the progress of medical technology, the styles and methods of surgical treatment of chest wall tumors have also made marked advancements. This article aims to briefly review the changes and developments of surgical treatment of chest wall tumors in recent years, so as to provide a reference for clinical work.
