Cystic liver metastases from colorectal cancer
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2000Cystic liver metastases from colorectal cancer are rarely reported.Clinicopathological and radiological analyses were performed on six cases of cystic liver metastases from colorectal cancer.Computed tomography or ultrasound findings for the tumors were atypical for metastases of colorectal cancer, and the lesions needed to be differentiated from ...

Management of liver metastases from colorectal cancer
Clinical Journal of Gastroenterology, 2010About 50% of colorectal cancer patients develop liver metastasis, and liver resection is considered the only curative therapy. However, the rate of recurrence is high, which contributes to poor prognosis. Since surgical resection coverage has increased because of improved hepatectomy including portal vein embolization, tumors shrink because of the ...

Arterial therapies of colorectal cancer metastases to the liver
Abdominal Imaging, 2011Intra-arterial therapies directed to the liver take advantage that liver tumors are fed by the hepatic artery while the liver vascularization is 30% arterial. Most common techniques of intra-arterial therapies for colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) include intra-arterial hepatic chemotherapy (IAHC), transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), and ...

Treatment for liver metastases from colorectal cancer
The Lancet Oncology, 20057patients who had a better prognosis underwent liver resection. One specialist adviser commented that several studies showed that thermal ablation lengthened survival in patients with hepatic metastases. However, another specialist adviser noted that RFA is less effective for treatment of metastatic disease than for treatment of primary liver cancer ...

[Treatment of colorectal cancer liver metastases].
Minerva medica, 2006Liver is the main target for colorectal cancer (CRC) metastases. About 50% of all patients affected by CRC develop liver metastases. Surgery remains the only potentially curative strategy and indications to surgery and resectability criteria are now less restrictive than before so that a more aggressive attitude in the treatment of metastatic lesions ...

Treatment of colorectal cancer metastases confined to the liver
European Journal of Cancer, 1995Hepatic metastases are a major cause of death in patients with disseminated colorectal cancer. The prognosis of patients with hepatic metastases is very poor and mainly determined by the extent of hepatic disease at presentation. In these patients, the goal of any treatment is to obtain a complete tumour remission in the liver; this is the only way to ...

Predictive Markers of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
Future Oncology, 2011Liver metastases are the most common site of distant failure after curative resection of colorectal cancer and a source of significant cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Currently, imaging and conventional histopathologic features, such as T-stage and N-stage, are used by clinicians to inform prognosis and guide adjuvant treatment to reduce the ...

Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
2017Radiation therapy as a viable and major treatment option for liver metastases is a relatively recent development in clinical oncology. The limited role of radiation has largely been due to the availability of surgery and percutaneous thermal ablation therapies, as well as the relative radiosensitivity of the liver.

Radioimmunotherapy of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases: Combination with Radiotherapy
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2000Abstract: The expected therapeutic gain of a combined radioimmunotherapy (RIT) with conventional radiotherapy (RT) would be a synergy of tumor irradiation, provided that toxic, dose‐limiting side effects concern different organs. We have shown in a model of subcutaneous human colon cancer transplants in nude mice that RIT with 131I‐labeled anti‐CEA ...

Surgical Treatment of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
American Society of Clinical Oncology Educational Book, 2012Overview: Treatment strategies for patients with stage IV colorectal cancer have changed markedly in the last decade. Patients with colorectal cancer metastases to the liver have always been a fascinating group to consider biologically and for local-regional treatment strategies. In the late 1980s through the 1990s, resection was performed for a select
