Role of Surgical Approach to Synchronous Colorectal Liver Metastases: A Retrospective Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study is a retrospective analysis of exploring the efficiency of surgical management on patients with synchronous colorectal liver metastasis (SCLM).

Patients and methods

Nine hundred fifty-three consecutive patients with SCLM from Weifang People's Hospital of Shandong Province between January 2006 and December 2015 were reviewed. The values of different factors were analyzed, such as different surgical indications of liver metastases, simultaneous or staged resection of primary colorectal cancer and liver metastases, and primary tumor resection (PTR) of asymptomatic patients with unresectable liver metastases.

Results

Median survival time (47.3 months) and 5-year survival rate (31%) for patients with resected liver metastases were significantly superior
