title: [Sarcoma metastases in the lung].
abstract: It is reported on 15 metastases of sarcomas of the lung, of which 7 were treated by operation and 8 were inoperable. The diagnostic and therapeutic parameters of these relatively rare sarcomas are described and discussed in connection with the prognosis. A well-considered active therapy is justified. There were obtained one five-year and one 16-year survival time postoperatively, four out of seven operatively treated cases had a postoperative life longer than two years, whereas all conservatively treated eight cases died within two years. Our results correspond with the actual literature. The influence of prognostically significant parameters is discussed.
