A prospective longitudinal cohort study describing quality of life in patients undergoing pulmonary metastasectomy for metastatic sarcoma

This study follows people with sarcoma — a type of cancer that starts in bones or soft tissues — who have cancer that has spread to the lungs and are having surgery to remove those lung tumours (called pulmonary metastasectomy).
