The liver is the most common site of metastasis in colorectal cancer (CRC). Treatment of liver metastases determines the prognosis of patients with CRC. Tremendous progress has been made during the last two decades, which has greatly improved the overall survival of CRC patients. Currently, various treatment options are available, including hepatectomy, liver transplantation, local regional therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immune therapy, inevitably leading to some controversies on treatment indications and selection of treatment strategy. Here, we reviewed the existing approaches to treat colorectal cancer liver metastases, with the aim of examining several crucial questions regarding surgical resection, liver transplantation, and medical treatment in clinical practice. |
