Abstract
Rectal cancer, required anatomic resections, and multiple metastases were risk factors for LNM. Rectal cancer, M-status of the primary tumor, number of pulmonary metastasis, and disease progression during pre-PM chemotherapy were independent negative predictors of survival, stratifying patients with poor prognosis who may benefit from chemotherapy before or after PM.
