| Abstract: |
| Colorectal cancer liver metastases (CLM) treatment is very important given the high incidence of colorectal
cancer with liver metastases, which are primarily treated by surgical resection. Transformational therapy
such as systemic chemotherapy, hepatic arterial infusion (HAI), portal vein embolization (PVE), ablation
therapy, and targeted therapy, should be applied to CLM patients who are unable to undergo immediate
surgery to improve patients’ survival and quality of life. |
