[Analysis of prognostic factors and treatment of pulmonary metastasis from colorectal cancer].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate effect of the treatments and prognostic factors of patients with pulmonary metastasis from colorectal cancer.


METHODS
Clinical data of 79 patients who suffered from lung metastatic diseases from colorectal cancer in 1990 - 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. The number of patients who had received lung operation was 22, and non-operated group contained 57 patients. Compared the prognosis of operated group and non-operated group and analyzed the prognostic factors.


RESULTS
The median survival time after the pulmonary resections was 34.5 months; the overall survival of 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 90.9%, 45.4% and 4.5%, and the overall of 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rate in non-operated group were 59.6%, 14.0% and 0. The surgery (RR = 4.805, 95% CI: 1.864 - 12.384, P = 0.001) and the number of metastasis (RR = 2.177, 95% CI: 1.431 - 3.314, P = 0.010) were the factors that could influence the patients prognosis.


CONCLUSIONS
The surgery for pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer is effective.
