Surgery in synchronous oligometastatic disease

Prof Naredi talks to ecancertv at ECC 2015 about the use of surgery in synchronous oligometastatic disease.

In the interview he highlights that two to three decades ago it was rare that patients with metastatic disease would be referred for surgery. Today, however, patients who have multiple metastatic sites may still be considered candidates for surgery, particularly if the metastases are all in the same organ such as the liver or lung.

Prof Naredi emphasizes the importance of the multidisciplinary team when treating patients with oligometastatic disease.
