Objective: Pulmonary resections after pneumonectomy due to metastases or metachronous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are rare because of the high potential risk of the second procedure and uncertain long-term results. On the basis of our series (largest in Europe) we tried to assess the long-term survival of patients treated in stage IV NSCLC.
Methods: Retrospective analysis was carried out on 18 patients treated at our department by pneumonectomy followed by additional resection in the years 1981-2002 (15 males and 3 females, 44-69 years, mean 57).
