The analysis of the outcomes of a surgical treatment of recurrent tuberculosis in the operated lung is presented. With disseminated forms of the pulmonary lesions complicated by empyema, surgical removal of the portion remained after the primary resection is indicated. A complex of measures improving the treatment efficacy, decreasing a surgical risk and providing a favourable outcome in 90% of the operated patients is given. The indications for such repeated operations, such as final pneumonectomy, are substantiated.

Implications of repeated resections of pulmonary metastasis (PM) are not well documented in the modern era. Fifteen children underwent two (n = 8), three (n = 3), or four or more (n = 3) resections (total = 38 procedures), most commonly for osteosarcoma (71%). Operative approach included muscle-sparing thoracotomy (71%), non-muscle-sparing thoracotomy (18%), and video-assisted thoracoscopy (11%).
