Expert Video - What does it mean if a patient has “metastatic lung cancer”?
The words “metastatic lung cancer” can mean a lot of different things and it is an important topic to discuss with your doctor as it may relate to your situation. In the past patients with “metastatic lung cancer” were considered untreatable when it came to surgery. Today we have a more hopeful situation. For example, there is a new term that sounds very complex and it is called “Oligometastatic lung cancer”. In these patients surgery can be an option to consider.
