A 48-year-old lady had total abdominoperineal rectal resection for adenocarcinoma 2 years ago. The patient is symptom-free, has elevated tumor marker levels and the check up revealed a round laesion 2cm in size on the right side peripherally and an other one on the left side in the same size. The tranthoracal needle biopsy makes adenocarcinoma likely. What would you recommend?
A) The patient obviously has biletarel lung metastasis and urgent oncological treatment (at least 6 cycles of chemotherapy) is recommended.
B) Both metastasis must be resected via median sternotomy and the adjuvant radiotherapy of the affected area may improve the outcome.
C) After excluding other distant metastasis and a negative colonoscopy single stage (sternotomy) or 2 staged (axillary thoracotomy) and metastasectomy is indicated. If histology is positive, adjuvant chemotherapy is indicated.
D) Urgent bilateral thoracotomy is recommended, because the laesions are very likely resectable. Even these are metastastic or primary lung cancers, chemotherapy is indicated.
