A case of successful use of triple approach in a kidney cancer patient with metastatic lesion to the lung and pleural cavity

2014 
: Metastasis to the lung is the most common place connected with kidney cancer progression. Wherein metastasectomy is accompanied by satisfactory 5- and 10-year survival achieving 49% and 21% respectively. Pleural lesion due to this tumor develops as a part of systemic metastasis and, as a rule, is a consequence of neoplastic spread from lung parenchyma, which indicates a poor prognosis and is an indication for palliative care.
