Metastatic chest lesion is rare in patients with soft palate tumors. We present a 52-year-old patient with metastatic lesion of the left ribs III-V and lung in 13 years after resection of cylindroma of the soft palate. The patient underwent successful chest reconstruction and atypical resection of the left lung. Isolation of the pleural cavity by xenopericardial patches and preoperative 3D CT modeled titanium implants meet all the requirements for maintaining the chest function. This approach also positively affects postoperative period and recovery. The above-described method of replacing chest defects is highly effective.
