Eighty-two percent of patients who underwent resection were symptomatic, with respiratory insufficiency (45%) being the primary reason for intervention. Other symptoms were: reduced exercise tolerance, dyspnea and persistent coughing. Reoperation was needed in 2.5% of cases. Median age at intervention was 108 days (IQR 21\u2013463 ) Surgical approaches included thoracotomy (60%), thoracoscopy (29%), embolization (4%) and other interventions (7%). Median length of postoperative hospitalization was 6 days. During their most recent follow-up visit, 21% of the cohort experienced pulmonary symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A minority of patients with CLM underwent surgical treatment, most of whom were symptomatic.
