Negative-pressure Pulmonary Edema And Hemorrhage Associated With Upper Airway Obstruction [edema E Hemorragia Pulmonar Por Pressão Negativa Associados à Obstrução Das Vias Aéreas Superiores]
Negative-pressure pulmonary edema accompanied by hemorrhage as a manifestation of upper airway obstruction is an uncommon problem that is potentially life-threatening. The principal pathophysiological mechanism involved is the generation of markedly negative intrathoracic pressure, which leads to an increase in pulmonary vascular volume and pulmonary capillary transmural pressure, creating a risk of disruption of the alveolar-capillary membrane. We report the case of an adult male with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage following acute upper airway obstruction caused by the formation of a cervical and mediastinal abscess resulting from the insertion of a metallic tracheal stent. The patient was treated through drainage of the abscess, antibiotic therapy, and positive pressure mechanical ventilation. This article emphasizes the importance of including this entity in the differential diagnosis of acute lung injury after procedures involving upper airway instrumentation.346420424Koh, M.S., Hsu, A.A., Eng, P., Negative pressure pulmonary oedema in the medical intensive care unit (2003) Intensive Care Med, 29 (9), pp. 1601-1604Bhavani-Shankar, K., Hart, N.S., Mushlin, P.S., Negative pressure induced airway and pulmonary injury (1997) Can J Anaesth, 44 (1), pp. 78-81Schwartz, D.R., Maroo, A., Malhotra, A., Kesselman, H., Negative pressure pulmonary hemorrhage (1999) Chest, 115 (4), pp. 1194-1197Van Kooy, M.A., Gargiulo, R.F., Postobstructive pulmonary edema (2000) Am Fam Physician, 62 (2), pp. 401-404Pavlin, D.J., Nessly, M.L., Cheney, F.W., Increased pulmonary vascular permeability as a cause of re-expansion edema in rabbits (1981) Am Rev Respir Dis, 124 (4), pp. 422-427Willms, D., Shure, D., Pulmonary edema due to upper airway obstruction in adults (1988) Chest, 94 (5), pp. 1090-1092Guffin, T.N., Har-el, G., Sanders, A., Lucente, F.E., Nash, M., Acute postobstructive pulmonary edema (1995) Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg, 112 (2), pp. 235-237McGowan, F.X., Kenna, M.A., Fleming, J.A., O'Connor, T., Adenotonsillectomy for upper airway obstruction carries increased risk in children with a history of prematurity (1992) Pediatr Pulmonol, 13 (4), pp. 222-226Ikeda, H., Asato, R., Chin, K., Kojima, T., Tanaka, S., Omori, K., Negative-pressure pulmonary edema after resection of mediastinum thyroid goiter (2006) Acta Otolaryngol, 126 (8), pp. 886-888West, J.B., Mathieu-Costello, O., Stress failure of pulmonary capillaries: Role in lung and heart disease (1992) Lancet, 340 (8822), pp. 762-767Rocker, G.M., Mackenzie, M.G., Williams, B., Logan, P.M., Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation: Successful outcome in patients with acute lung injury/ARDS (1999) Chest, 115 (1), pp. 173-177Butterell, H., Riley, R.H., Life-threatening pulmonary oedema secondary to tracheal compression (2002) Anaesth Intensive Care, 30 (6), pp. 804-806Antonelli, M., Conti, G., Moro, M.L., Esquinas, A., Gonzalez-Diaz, G., Confalonieri, M., Predictors of failure of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure: A multi-center study (2001) Intensive Care Med, 27 (11), pp. 1718-1728Adolph, M.D., Oliver, A.M., Dejak, T., Death from adult respiratory distress syndrome and multiorgan failure following acute upper airway obstruction (1994) Ear Nose Throat J, 73 (5), pp. 324-327Westreich, R., Sampson, I., Shaari, C.M., Lawson, W., Negative-pressure pulmonary edema after routine septorhinoplasty: Discussion of pathophysiology, treatment, and prevention (2006) Arch Facial Plast Surg, 8 (1), pp. 8-15Ackland, G.L., Mythen, M.G., Negative pressure pulmonary edema as an unsuspected imitator of acute lung injury/ARDS (2005) Chest, 127 (5), pp. 1867-186
Bronchoscopy For Foreign Body Removal: Where Is The Delay? [broncoscopia Para Remoção De Corpo Estranho: Onde Está O Atraso?]
This was a retrospective analysis of the medical charts of 145 patients treated at the Bronchoscopy and Thoracic Surgery Clinic of the Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade Estadual de Campinas (HC-Unicamp, State University of Campinas Hospital das Clínicas) over a period of 10 years. There was a significant difference related to the site of first medical visit (Unicamp-HC versus other institutions) in terms of the time elapsed between the suspicion of bronchial aspiration and the actual respiratory endoscopic examination. However, no significant difference was found in the rate of positive results. The low number of referral centers that provide emergency respiratory endoscopy can negatively influence the treatment of patients under suspicion of bronchial aspiration, jeopardizing the overall recovery in the mid- and long-term.3411956958Zerella, J.T., Dimler, M., McGill, L.C., Pippus, K.J., Foreign body aspiration in children: Value of radiography and complications of bronchoscopy (1998) J Ped Surg, 33 (11), pp. 1651-1654Fraga, A.M., Reis, M.C., Zambon, M.P., Toro, I.C., Ribeiro, J.D., Baracat, E.C., Foreign body aspiration in children: Clinical aspects, radiological aspects and bronchoscopic treatment (2008) J Bras Pneumol, 34 (2), pp. 74-82Swanson, K.L., Prakash, U.B., Midthun, D.E., Edell, E.S., Utz, J.P., McDougall, J.C., Flexible bronchoscopic management of airway foreign bodies in children (2002) Chest, 121 (5), pp. 1695-1700Pritt, B., Harmon, M., Schwartz, M., Cooper, K., A tale of three aspirations: Foreign bodies in the airway (2003) J Clin Pathol, 56 (10), pp. 791-794Cataneo, A.J., Reibscheid, S.M., Ruiz Júnior, R.L., Ferrari, G.F., Foreign body in the tracheobronchial tree (1997) Clin Pediatr (Phila), 36 (12), pp. 701-706Applegate, K.E., Dardinger, J.T., Lieber, M.L., Herts, B.R., Davros, W.J., Obuchowski, N.A., Spiral CT scanning technique in the detection of aspiration of LEGO foreign bodies (2001) Pediatr Radiol, 31 (12), pp. 836-840Lima, J.A., Fischer, G.B., Felicetti, J.C., Flores, J.A., Penna, C.N., Ludwig, E., Aspiração de corpo estranho na árvore traqueobrônquica em crianças: Avaliação de seqüelas através de exame cintilográfico.

Postintubation Injuries And Open Surgical Tracheostomy: Should We Always Perform Isthmectomy? [sequelas Pós-intubação E Traqueostomia Cirúrgica Aberta: Devemos Sempre Fazer A Istmectomia?]
Objective: To evaluate the influence of the surgical team (general surgery or thoracic surgery) and the surgical technique (with or without isthmectomy) on the incidence of postintubation injuries in the airways of tracheostomized patients. Methods: Between January 1st and August 31st, 2007, 164 patients admitted to the adult intensive care unit and tracheally intubated for more than 24 h were studied prospectively at the Sumaré State Hospital, located in the city of Sumaré, Brazil. When tracheostomy was necessary, these patients were randomly assigned to thoracic or general surgery teams. All of the patients were submitted to fiberoptic tracheoscopy for decannulation or late evaluation of the airway. Results: Of the 164 patients in the study, 90 (54.88%) died (due to causes unrelated to the procedure), 67 (40.85%) completed follow-up, and 7 (4.27%) were lost to follow-up. Of the 67 patients who completed follow-up, 32 had undergone tracheostomy (21 by the general surgery team and 11 by the thoracic surgery team), and 22 had been submitted to isthmectomy (11 by the general surgery team and 11 by the thoracic surgery team). There was no difference between the surgical teams in terms of the incidence of stoma complications. However, there was a significant difference when the surgical techniques (with or without isthmectomy) were compared. Conclusions: Not performing isthmectomy in parallel with tracheostomy leads the surgeon to open the tracheal stoma more distally than expected. In such cases, there were more stoma complications.353227233Maddaus, M.A., Pearson, F.G., Postintubation injury (2002) Pearson's Thoracic and Esophageal Surgery, pp. 300-314. , In: Pearson FG, Patterson GA, editors, Philadelphia: Churchill Livingstone/ElsevierStreitz Jr, J.M., Shapshay, S.M., Airway injury after tracheotomy and endotracheal intubation (1991) Surg Clin North Am, 71 (6), pp. 1211-30Park, M., Brauer, L., Sanga, R.R., Kajdacsy-Balla, A.C., Ladeira, J.P., Azevedo, L.C., Percutaneous Tracheostomy in Critically-ill Patients: The Experience of a Medical Intensive Care Unit (2004) J Bras Pneumol., 30 (3), pp. 237-242Ciaglia, P., Firsching, R., Syniec, C., Elective percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy.

Use Of A One-way Flutter Valve Drainage System In The Postoperative Period Following Lung Resection [utilização Da Válvula Unidirecional De Tórax Como Sistema De Drenagem No Pós-operatório De Ressecç ões Pulmonares]
Objective: To evaluate pleural drainage using a one-way flutter valve following elective lung resection. Methods: This was a prospective study, with descriptive analysis, of 39 lung resections performed using a one-way flutter valve to achieve pleural drainage during the postoperative period. Patients less than 12 years of age were excluded, as were those submitted to pneumonectomy or emergency surgery, those who were considered lost to follow-up and those in whom water-seal drainage was used as the initial method of pleural drainage. Lung expansion, duration of the drainage, hospital stay and postoperative complications were noted. Results: A total of 36 patients were included and analyzed in this study. The mean duration of pleural drainage was 3.0 ± 1.6 days. At 30 days after the surgical procedure, chest X-ray results were considered normal for 34 patients (95.2%). Postoperative complications occurred in 8 patients (22.4%) and were related to the drainage system in 3 (8.4%) of those. Conclusions: The use of a one-way flutter valve following elective lung resection was effective, was well tolerated and presented a low rate of complications.348559566Kenyon, J.H., Traumatic Hemothorax: Siphon drainage (1916) Ann Surg, 64, pp. 728-729Lilienthal, H., Resection of the lung for suppurative infections with a report based on 31 operative cases in which resection was done or intended (1922) Ann Surg, 75 (3), pp. 257-320Heimlich, H.J., Valve drainage of the pleural cavity (1968) Dis Chest, 53 (3), pp. 282-287Waller, D.A., Edwards, J.G., Rajesh, P.B., A physiological comparison of flutter valve drainage bags and underwater seal systems for postoperative air leaks (1999) Thorax, 54 (5), pp. 442-443Lima, A.G., Rocha, E.R., Santos, N.A., Seabra, J.C., Mussi, R.K., Santos, J.G., Avalia̧ão do uso da bra̧adeira ou "clamp" na drenagem pleural fechada subaquática.

Standardization Of A Method Of Prolonged Thoracic Surgery And Mechanical Ventilation In Rats To Evaluate Local And Systemic Inflammation
Purpose: To evaluate the immediate pulmonary and systemic inflammatory response after a long-term operative period. Methods: Wistar rats in the experimental group were anaesthetized and submitted to tracheostomy, thoracotomy and remained on mechanical ventilation during three hours. Control animals were not submitted to the operative protocol. The following parameters have been evaluated: pulmonary myeloperoxidase activity, pulmonary serum protein extravasation, lung wet/dry weight ratio and measurement of levels of cytokines in serum. Results: Operated animals exhibited significantly lower serum protein extravasation in lungs compared with control animals. The lung wet/dry weight ratio and myeloperoxidase activity did not differ between groups. Serum cytokines IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-10 levels were not detected in groups, whereas IL-6 was detected only in operated animals. Conclusion: The experimental mechanical ventilation in rats with a prolonged surgical time did not produce significant local and systemic inflammatory changes and permit to evaluate others procedures in thoracic surgery.2613843Gothard, J., Lung injury after thoracic and one-lung ventilation (2006) Curr Opin Anaesthesiol, 19 (1), pp. 5-10Matute-Bello, G., Frevert, C.W., Martin, T.R., Animal models of acute lung injury (2008) Am J Physiol Cell Mol Physiol, 295 (3), pp. L379-99Braeuninger, S., Kleinschnitz, C., Rodent models of focal ischemia: Procedural pitfalls and translational problems (2009) Exp Transl Stroke Med, 25, pp. 1-8Brain, S.D., Williams, T.J., Inflammatory oedema induced by synergism between calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and mediators of increased vascular permeability (1985) Br J Pharmacol, 86, pp. 855-860Bradley, P.P., Priebat, D.A., Christensen, R.D., Rothstein, G., Measurement of cutaneous inflammation: Estimation of neutrophil content with an enzyme marker (1982) J Invest Dermatol, 78 (3), pp. 206-209Chang, K.P., Huang, S.H., Lin, C.L., Chang, L.L., Lin, S.D., Lai, C.S., An alternative model of composite tissue allotransplantation: Groin-thigh flap (2008) Transpl Int, 21 (6), pp. 564-571Unzueta, M.C., Casas, J.I., Moral, M.V., Pressure-controlled versus volume-controlled ventilation during one-lung ventilation for thoracic surgery (2007) Anesth Analg, 104 (5), pp. 1029-1033Tanaka, S., Tsuchida, H., Nakabayashi, K.-I., Seki, S., Namiki, A., The effects of sevoflurane, isoflurane, halothane, and enflurane on hemodynamic responses during an inhaled induction of anesthesia via a mask in humans (1996) Anesthesia and Analgesia, 82 (4), pp. 821-826. , DOI 10.1097/00000539-199604000-00025Liu, R., Ishibe, Y., Ueda, M., Isoflurane-sevoflurane administration before ischemia attenuates ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury in isolated rat lungs (2000) Anesthesiology, 92 (3), pp. 833-840Lima, R.C., Escobar, M.A.S., Diniz, R., D'Aconda, G., Bergsland, J., Salermo, T., Avaliação hemodinâmica intra-operatória na cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio sem o auxílio de circulação extracorpórea (2000) Rev Bras Circ Cardiovasc, 15 (3), pp. 201-211Basagan-Mogol, E., Goren, S., Korfali, G., Turker, G., Kaya, F.N., Induction of anesthesia in coronary artery bypass graft surgery: The hemodynamic and analgesic effects of ketamine (2010) Clinics, 65 (2), pp. 133-138Fuentes, J.M., Hanly, E.J., Bachman, S.L., Aurora, A.R., Marohn, M.R., Talamini, M.A., Videoendoscopic endotracheal intubation in the rat: A comprehensive rodent model of laparoscopic surgery (2004) J Surg Res, 122 (2), pp. 240-248Lawrence, T., Wlloughby, D.A., Gilroy, D.W., Anti-inflammatory lipid mediators and insights into the resolution of inflammation (2002) Nat Rev Immunol, 2 (10), pp. 787-795Lewis, C.A., Martin, G.S., Understanding and managing fluid balance in patients with acute lung injury (2004) Curr Opin Crit Care, 10 (1), pp. 13-17Soni, N., Willians, P., Positive pressure ventilation: What is the real cost?

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (cpap) After Lung Resection: A Randomized Clinical Trial [pressão Positiva Contínua Nas Vias Aéreas (cpap) Após Ressecção Pulmonar: Ensaio Clínico Randomizado]
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Noninvasive mechanical ventilation during the postoperative period (PO) following lung resection can restore residual functional capacity, improve oxygenation and spare the inspiratory muscles. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) associated with physiotherapy, compared with physiotherapy alone after lung resection. DESIGN AND SETTING: Open randomized clinical trial conducted in the clinical hospital of Universidade Estadual de Campinas. METHOD: Sessions were held in the immediate postoperative period (POi) and on the first and second postoperative days (PO1 and PO2), and the patients were reassessed on the discharge day. CPAP was applied for two hours and the pressure adjustment was set between 7 and 8.5 cmH2O. The oxygenation index (OI), Borg scale, pain scale and presence of thoracic drains and air losses were evaluated. RESULTS: There was a significant increase in the OI in the CPAP group in the POi compared to the Chest Physiotherapy (CP) group, P = 0.024. In the CP group the OI was significantly lower on PO1 (P = 0,042), than CPAP group. The air losses were significantly greater in the CPAP group in the POi and on PO1 (P = 0.001, P = 0.028), but there was no significant difference between the groups on PO2 and PO3. There was a statistically significant difference between the groups regarding the Borg scale in the POi (P < 0.001), but there were no statistically significant differences between the groups regarding the pain score. CONCLUSION: CPAP after lung resection is safe and improves oxygenation, without increasing the air losses through the drains.13214147Lumbierres, M., Prats, E., Farrero, E., Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation prevents postoperative pulmonary complications in chronic ventilators users (2007) Respir Med., 101 (1), pp. 62-68Bellinetti, L.M., Thomson, J.C., Respiratory muscle evaluation in elective thoracotomies and laparotomies of the upper abdomen (2006) J Bras Pneumol., 32 (2), pp. 99-105Perrin, C., Jullien, V., Vénissac, N., Prophylactic use of noninvasive ventilation in patients undergoing lung resectional surgery (2007) Respir Med., 101 (7), pp. 1572-1578Benditt, J.O., Novel uses of noninvasive ventilation (2009) Respir Care, 54 (2), pp. 212-219. , discussion 219-22Battisti, A., Michotte, J.B., Tassaux, D., van Gessel, E., Jolliet, P., Non-invasive ventilation in the recovery room for postoperative respiratory failure: A feasibility study (2005) Swiss Med Wkly., 135 (23-24), pp. 339-343Auriant, I., Jallot, A., Hervé, P., Noninvasive ventilation reduces mortality in acute respiratory failure following lung resection (2001) Am J Respir Crit Care Med., 164 (7), pp. 1231-1235Aguiló, R., Togores, B., Pons, S., Noninvasive ventilatory support after lung resectional surgery (1997) Chest., 112 (1), pp. 117-121Oken, M.M., Creech, R.H., Tormey, D.C., Toxicity and response criteria of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (1982) Am J Clin Oncol., 5 (6), pp. 649-655Scanlan, C.L., Myslinski, M.J., Terapia de higiene brônquica (2000) Fundamentos da terapia respiratória de Egan, pp. 817-843. , In: Scanlan CL, Wilkins RL, Stoller JK, editors. 7a ed.

The use of SPECT in preoperative assessment of patients with lung cancer
Perfusion scintigraphy is the most frequently used method for the regional assessment of pulmonary function in candidates for pulmonary resection with borderline respiratory function. This method provides two-dimensional images, and it considers all the segments of the pulmonary lobes as having the same volume and function, without considering the spatial overlapping of pulmonary areas with different function. As single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) provides tomographic imaging, this could be a more precise method for regional assessment. In this study, the postoperative predicted forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (FEV1,ppo) was calculated in 26 patients with lung cancer using FEV1, quantitative lung perfusion scan with planar acquisition (PA) and quantitative lung perfusion scan with tomographic imaging (SPECT). The estimated FEV1,ppo values obtained using both methods were compared with FEV1 values measured after surgery (mean: 484+/-4 days; range: 15-180 days; median: 32 days). The Pearson's linear correlation coefficient was 0.8840 for FEV1,ppo estimated by PA and 0.8791 for FEV1,ppo estimated by SPECT. The linear correlation coefficient for lobectomy was greater than the coefficient for pneumonectomy using both methods. In conclusion, both methods show good correlation for real postoperative pulmonary function without demonstrating single-photon emission computed tomography superiority over planar acquisition, and both methods were more effective for estimating postoperative predicted forced expiratory volume in one second in lobectomies than in pneumonectomies24225826
Prognostic Factors For Complications Following Pulmonary Resection: Pre-albumin Analysis, Time On Mechanical Ventilation, And Other Factors [fatores Prognósticos Em Complicações Pós-operatórias De Ressecção Pulmonar: Análise De Pré-albumina, Tempo De Ventilação Mecânica E Outros]
Objective: To determine whether pre-operative nutritional status and post-operative time on mechanical ventilation, as well as others factors, are correlated with post-operative complications (general or pulmonary) in patients undergoing elective thoracic surgery. Methods: A prospective study was conducted, involving 71 patients undergoing elective pulmonary resection. The data collected pre-operatively included gender, age, smoking status, pre-albumin level, lymphocyte count, and body mass index. The peri-operative data included type of surgery and surgical time, as well as post-operative time on mechanical ventilation. Results: Post-operative complications were found to correlate with low pre-albumin concentration, type of resection, surgical time, and post-operative time on mechanical ventilation. Surgical time and post-operative time on mechanical ventilation were also implicated in the post-operative pulmonary complications observed in 22 (30.99%) of the patients studied. Conclusion: Our results suggest that pre-albumin concentration, type of surgery and surgical time, as well as post-operative time on mechanical ventilation, serve as predictive indices of post-operative complications in patients undergoing elective pulmonary resection. In the analysis of the post-operative pulmonary complications, statistically significant correlations were found between such complications and increases in surgical time or post-operative time on mechanical ventilation.326489494Mirra AP, Justo FA.

Descriptive Analysis Of And Overall Survival After Surgical Treatment Of Lung Metastases [análise Descritiva E Sobrevida Global Do Tratamento Cirúrgico Das Metástases Pulmonares]
Objective: To describe demographic characteristics, surgical results, postoperative complications, and overall survival rates in surgically treated patients with lung metastases. Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of 119 patients who underwent a total of 154 lung metastasis resections between 1997 and 2011. Results: Among the 119 patients, 68 (57.1%) were male and 108 (90.8%) were White. The median age was 52 years (range, 15-75 years). In this sample, 63 patients (52.9%) presented with comorbidities, the most common being systemic arterial hypertension (69.8%) and diabetes (19.0%). Primary colorectal tumors (47.9%) and musculoskeletal tumors (21.8%) were the main sites of origin of the metastases. Approximately 24% of the patients underwent more than one resection of the lesions, and 71% had adjuvant treatment prior to metastasectomy. The rate of lung metastasis recurrence was 19.3%, and the median disease-free interval was 23 months. The main surgical access used was thoracotomy (78%), and the most common approach was wedge resection with segmentectomy (51%). The rate of postoperative complications was 22%, and perioperative mortality was 1.9%. The overall survival rates at 12, 36, 60, and 120 months were 96%, 77%, 56%, and 39%, respectively. A Cox analysis confirmed that complications within the first 30 postoperative days were associated with poor prognosis (hazard ratio = 1.81; 95% CI: 1.09-3.06; p = 0.02).

Descriptive analysis of and overall survival after surgical treatment of lung metastases
To describe demographic characteristics, surgical results, postoperative complications, and overall survival rates in surgically treated patients with lung metastases. Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of 119 patients who underwent a total of 154 lung metastasis resections between 1997 and 2011. Results: Among the 119 patients, 68 (57.1%) were male and 108 (90.8%) were White. The median age was 52 years (range, 15-75 years). In this sample, 63 patients (52.9%) presented with comorbidities, the most common being systemic arterial hypertension (69.8%) and diabetes (19.0%). Primary colorectal tumors (47.9%) and musculoskeletal tumors (21.8%) were the main sites of origin of the metastases. Approximately 24% of the patients underwent more than one resection of the lesions, and 71% had adjuvant treatment prior to metastasectomy. The rate of lung metastasis recurrence was 19.3%, and the median disease-free interval was 23 months. The main surgical access used was thoracotomy (78%), and the most common approach was wedge resection with segmentectomy (51%). The rate of postoperative complications was 22%, and perioperative mortality was 1.9%. The overall survival rates at 12, 36, 60, and 120 months were 96%, 77%, 56%, and 39%, respectively. A Cox analysis confirmed that complications within the first 30 postoperative days were associated with poor prognosis (hazard ratio = 1.81; 95% Cl: 1.09-3.06; p = 0.02). Conclusions: Surgical treatment of lung metastases is safe and effective, with good overall survival, especially in patients with fewer metastases396650658Descrever características demográficas, resultados operatórios, complicações pós-operatórias e taxa de sobrevida global em pacientes com metástases pulmonares tratados cirurgicamente. Análise retrospectiva de 119 pacientes submetidos a um total de 154 cirurgias de ressecção de metástase pulmonar entre 1997 e 2011. Resultados: Do total de 119 pacientes, 68 (57,1%) eram do sexo masculino, e 108 (90,8%) eram brancos. A mediana de idade foi de 52 anos (variação, 15-75 anos). Nessa amostra, 63 pacientes (52,9%) apresentaram comorbidades, sendo as mais frequentes hipertensão arterial sistêmica (69,8%) e diabetes (19,0%). Tumores primários colorretais (47,9%) e musculoesqueléticos (21,8%) foram os principais sítios de origem das metástases. Aproximadamente 24% dos pacientes foram submetidos a mais de uma ressecção das lesões, e 71% fizeram tratamento adjuvante prévio à metastasectomia. A taxa de recidiva de metástase pulmonar foi de 19,3%. A mediana do intervalo livre de doença foi de 23 meses. A principal via de acesso usada foi toracotomia (78%), e o tipo de ressecção mais frequente foi em cunha e segmentectomia (51%). O índice de complicações pós-operatórias foi de 22% e o de mortalidade perioperatória foi de 1,9%. As taxas de sobrevida global em 12, 36, 60 e 120 meses foram, respectivamente, de 96%, 77%, 56% e 39%. A análise de Cox confirmou que complicações nos primeiros 30 dias pós-operatórios associaram-se a pior prognóstico (hazard ratio = 1,81; IC95%: 1,09-3,06; p = 0,02). Conclusões: O tratamento cirúrgico das metástases pulmonares oriundas de diferentes sítios tumorais é efetivo e seguro, com boa sobrevida global, especialmente nos casos com um menor número de lesões pulmonare
