Systemic chemotherapy (CTx) is increasingly used before surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CRC-LM). However, CTx may cause liver injury like steatosis, steatohepatitis, and sinusoidal injury which may be associated with postoperative morbidity. Some recent data have even shown an increased mortality in patients with CTx-associated steatohepatitis. We, therefore, analyzed our recent experience with potential hepatic injury and its association with CTx and morbidity in patients undergoing surgery for CRC-LM.
