Fig 1 Overall survival of 128 patients who underwent curative resection for pulmonary metastases from colorectal carcinoma. The 5-year survival rate was 45.3%. Median survival time was 49.5 months. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur )

Fig 2 Probability of survival according to the number and location (unilateral or bilateral) of metastatic lesions. The 5-year survival rate for patients with solitary, multiple unilateral, and multiple bilateral metastases was 50.6%, 40.3%, and 12.5%, respectively. The survival rate for patients with multiple bilateral metastases was worse than with a solitary lesion (p = ) and with multiple unilateral lesions (p = ).

Fig 3 Probability of survival by Dukes' stage. The 5-year survival rate for patients with Dukes' A was 68.7% compared with 32.8% for patients with Dukes' B–D (significant, p = ). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur )

Fig 4 Probability of survival for patients who underwent a repeat pulmonary metastasectomy. The 3- and 5-year survival rates were 44.6% and 22.3%, respectively. Median survival time was 35.4 months. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur )
