Abstract
The presented results confirm the positive role of metastasectomy in the treatment of pulmonary metastases of clear renal cell carcinoma. Long-term survival following pulmonary metastasectomy can be expected in solitary, metachronic metastases of a small size with a disease free interval >1 year following nephrectomy, with the absence of metastases in the regional lymphatic nodes and R0 resection.
