In the context of improved tumor responses and prolonged survival periods, the treatment of tumor/therapy-related complications must be taken into account.

We evaluated the postoperative outcomes of patients with advanced stage lung cancer who underwent rescue surgery for tumor or therapy-related life-threatening complications. We conducted a systematic review of literature using PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar using following keywords: (\"rescue surgery\" or \"salvage surgery\" or \"salvage lung resection\") and (\"lung cancer\" or \"non-small cell lung cancer\" or \"NSCLC\" or \"SCLC\").
