Abstract
Pulmonary surgery is frequently used for the treatment of metastasis or nodules in children with various types of malignancies. However, the indications and effectiveness of pulmonary metastatectomy have not been evaluated recently, Therefore, a retrospective study was conducted to analyse the results of pulmonary metastatectomy in children. Children who underwent pulmonary metastatectomy at our department between 1990 and 2000 were reviewed.
