“…When possible, surgery should be delayed for at least 7 weeks following SARS-CoV-2 infection. 24 From our case series, the first patient was treated surgically whilst the second patient was treated conservatively. The latter patient was not suitable for surgical intervention in view of bilateral widespread bullous lung disease and increased risk of pneumothorax and hypoxemia during single lung ventilation.…”

“…The results of the meta-analysis did not show such a relationship in the case of molecularly targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. In turn, many studies, including meta-analyses, have confirmed the negative impact of active SARS-CoV-2 infection during the postoperative period in cancer patients treated with surgery [8,9].…”

“…There were no safety concerns surrounding immunotherapy, targeted therapies, surgery, and radiotherapy (however, the authors and Zou et al exchanged letters clarifying which surgical patients were included in the study). [12][13][14] The common denominator among these studies is the investigators' call for additional research. Realistically, they write, it may take years to establish a clear association between COVID-19 and cancer progression, but that makes it even more important to focus on research now.…”
