TY - JOUR AU - Scanagatta, Paolo AU - Rolli, Luigi PY - 2019 TI - Pulmonary metastasectomy in children and adolescents: a narrative review JF - Pediatric Medicine; Vol 2 (March 2019): Pediatric Medicine Y2 - 2019 KW - N2 - Performing a pulmonary metastasectomy in the pediatric/adolescent population has become a standard procedure in thoracic oncology for some types of solid tumors. After a careful evaluation conducted by a multidisciplinary team of surgeons, expert pediatric oncologists and radiologists determined that only patients with primary-tumor control, and no other metastatic site with the possibility to perform a complete resection should be scheduled for a surgical intervention. In this article, we summarize the general indications, surgical techniques and technical tips of a pediatric pulmonary metastasectomy. UR - https://pm.amegroups.org/article/view/4756
