The lungs are an organ where various cancers easily metastasize, as cancer cells that have developed in other organs can travel through the bloodstream and get caught in the lung's capillaries. Cancers that can metastasize to the lungs include colon cancer, breast cancer, kidney cancer, bladder cancer, uterine cancer, and ovarian cancer.
The treatment policy is based on the treatment policy of the specialized department for the original cancer.If the original organ cancer has been removed, there has been no metastasis other than to the lung, and all lung metastatic lesions are resectable, we will perform surgical resection of metastatic lung tumors in collaboration with specialized departments.
