Journal ArticleDOI

Rescue surgery for unresectable colorectal liver metastases downstaged by chemotherapy: a model to predict long-term survival.

TL;DR: Modern chemotherapy allows 12.5% of patients with unresectable CRLM to be rescued by liver surgery, with a wide use of repeat hepatectomies and extrahepatic resections, and four preoperative risk factors could select the patients most likely to benefit from this strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor progression while on chemotherapy: a contraindication to liver resection for multiple colorectal metastases?

TL;DR: Liver resection is able to offer long-term survival to patients with multiple colorectal metastases provided that the metastatic disease is controlled by chemotherapy prior to surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resection of nonresectable liver metastases from colorectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

TL;DR: Liver resection may be achieved in some previously unresectable patients with the help of an effective chemotherapy, and the benefit in survival seems comparable to that obtained with primary liver resection.
