pubmed:abstractText
The spontaneous life expectancy of patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancers is dismaying. Surgical resection is the only treatment which may help these patients. After resection the 5-year survival rate averages 25%. The best results are obtained in patients with one or few metastases localized to one liver lobe. There is no effective adjuvant therapy. Systemic or regional chemotherapy and immunomodulation have little effect in patients with inoperable metastases.
