Colorectal Liver Metastases

الملخص EN

The diagnosis and management of CRLM is complex and requires a multidisciplinary team approach for optimal outcomes.

Over the past several decades, the 5-year survival following resection of CRLM has increased and the criteria for resection have broadened substantially.

Even patients with multiple, bilateral CRLM, previously thought unresectable, may now be candidates for resection.

Two-stage hepatectomy, repeat curative-intent hepatectomy, and even selected resection of extrahepatic metastases have further increased the number of patients who may be treated with curative intent.

Multiple liver-directed therapies exist to treat unresectable, incurable patients with adequate survival benefit and morbidity rates.
