AB  - The  recognition  of  pulmonary  metastases  from  an  extrathoracic  primary  tumor  is  a  dramatic  and  emotional  point  in  the  care  of  a  cancer  patient.  The  clinical  situation  immediately  changes  from  potential  cure  to  the  tacit  acknowledgment  of  probable  incurability.  Goals  of  therapy  change  from  living  without  evidence  of  disease  to  living,  and  living  well,  with  systemic  disease.  We  believe  that  pulmonary  metastasectomy  in  carefully  selected  patients  contributes  to  quality  of  life  and  affords  these  patients  extended  periods  without  obvious  disease.
