Surgery has been available for the treatment of pulmonary metastases in metastatic colorectal cancer and promising overall survival was observed in retrospective studies with selected patients. This study investigated whether the preoperative FDG- PET/CT scan influences survival in this patient group. Furthermore, we tried to identify other prognostic factors associated with overall survival and progression-free survival.
