Abstract:

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, with its distant metastasis mainly to the liver. Currently, hepatectomy is the only safe and effective measure to cure colorectal liver metastasis (CLM), providing more than 50% 5-year-survival after the operation. In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment of CLM has been elevated with the improvement of chemotherapy, ablation, and radiotherapy. Comprehensive therapeutic schedule designed by appropriately integrating all the above-mentioned treatments exerts profound impact on the prognosis of CLM patients. This review attempts at summarizing the present status of CLM treatment.

Key words: Colorectal neoplasms, Neoplasm metastasis, Hepatectomy, Combined modality therapy
