The median survival value was 33 +/- 5.4 months (range:22.2 - 43.7 months) in Group 1, and 28 +/- 6.8 months (range:14.5 - 41.4 months) in Group 2; the cumulative value was 33 +/- 3.7 months (range:25.6 - 40.3 months). Survival did not differ significantly between the groups (p=0.738). Age (p=0.81), gender (p=0.35), disease-free survival (p=0.24), number of metastatic nodules (p=0.60), presence of synchronous-metachronous tumor (p=0.94), adjuvant chemotherapy (p=0.96), adjuvant radiotherapy (p=0.86), and relapse of disease (p=0.07) were not significantly correlated with survival. Conclusion: Survival and factors that affected survival did not differ significantly between the two groups that underwent metastasectomy. It was indicated that the primary tumor is not an effective factor in the selection of patients who would undergo metastasectomy.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessColorectal TumorsLung TumorsMetastasisLong-Term SurvivalSurgical ResectionArticle514351355Q4WOS:000503192700004
