Abstract
Pulmonary Metastases in Urogenital Cancers; Surgical Treatment and Outcomes
Highlights
Metastasis is remaining one of the major problems in cancer treatment
Their metastasis originated from renal cell carcinoma (RCC; n = 9), bladder tumor (n = 7), testis tumors (n = 4), and prostate cancer (n = 2)
Despite the limitations of this study, we aim to document our promising results of pulmonary metastasectomy in patients with primary urogenital tumors
Summary
Urogenital tumors originating from kidney, prostate, testes, and bladder tend to metastasize to the lungs The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the results of pulmonary metastasectomy in patients with primary urogenital tumors. Urogenital tumors originating from kidney, prostate, testes, and bladder tend to metastasize to the lungs [1, 2]. There is no consensus on this issue, metastasectomy may be the part of the treatment especially in cases in which the primary disease is under control [1,2,3]. Studies in the literature are usually focused on subtypes of urogenital cancers, and collective publications are extremely rare
