Sumario:Abstract Background Few clinical research studies with long‐term follow‐up have revealed whether cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) increases the risk of postoperative distant metastasis in patients with giant refractory thoracic tumors. The present study evaluated the risk of distant metastasis after surgery utilizing CPB with long‐term follow‐up. Methods Clinical data for patients with giant refractory thoracic tumors who underwent resection with the use of CPB in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University during the past 11 years were retrospectively reviewed. Results Of the 14 patients with giant refractory thoracic tumors who had undergone surgery under CPB, 10 patients (71.4%) were completely resected. Twelve patients were followed up for 13–127 months with 10 patients were completely resected and two patients could not be completely resected due to severe tissue invasion. Three patients (25%) suffered from distant metastasis, and four patients (33.3%) experienced local recurrence. Only one patient (1/10) with complete resection suffered from distant metastasis, while two patients (2/10) experienced local recurrence. Two patients (2/2) with major resection suffered from both distant metastasis and local recurrence. Median overall survival for patients who have been regularly followed up was 50 months with 1‐, 5‐, and 10‐year survival of 100%, 75%, and 66.7%. No difference was found between the distant metastasis survival and the local recurrence survival. (p = 0.99). Conclusions CPB is an effective strategy for complete resection of the giant refractory thoracic tumors with an acceptable risk of postoperative distant metastasis for some patients.
