Liver regeneration and liver metastasis

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2021
Surgical resection for primary and secondary hepatic neoplasms provides the best chance of cure. Advanced surgical techniques such as portal vein embolisation, two-staged hepatectomy and associated liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged-hepatectomy (ALPPS) have facilitated hepatic resection in patients with previously unresectable, bi ...

Imaging of Colorectal Liver Metastasis

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2022
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers in the world. The most important determinant of survival and prognosis is the stage and presence of metastasis. The liver is the most common location for CRC metastasis. The only curative treatment for CRC liver metastasis (CRLM) is resection; however, many patients are ineligible for surgical ...

Liver resection for colorectal liver metastasis

Surgical Oncology, 2007
At some point in the natural course of colorectal cancer up to 50% of patients will develop metastasis to the liver. Historically only 20% of these patients would have to be deemed resectable, with an intent to cure, at the time of presentation. But with recent improvements in cross-sectional imaging, chemotherapeutic agents and advances in the ...

Liver Metastasis Presenting as Pneumoperitoneum

Southern Medical Journal, 2005
A 63-year-old man presented to the emergency department with sudden-onset abdominal pain. Chest radiography demonstrated pneumoperitoneum. At surgery, the source was found to be a ruptured hepatic abscess. Cultures grew Clostridium perfringens, and biopsies confirmed metastasis of a previously resected pancreatic cancer.

Thermoablation of colorectal liver metastasis

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2010
AbstractThermoablation is a local therapy that is effective in in situ destruction of colorectal liver metastasis while preserving surrounding normal liver tissue. It is less invasive compared to surgery, easy to use, and can be repeated. The therapy provides local control of unresectable disease and is an alternative therapy for small resectable ...

Molecular mechanisms of liver metastasis

International Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2011
Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer, and is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in Japan. The majority of these deaths is attributable to liver metastasis. Recent studies have provided increasing evidence that the chemokine-chemokine receptor system is a potential mechanism of tumor metastasis via multiple complementary ...

Colorectal metastasis (liver and lung)

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2002
Distant metastases are the major cause of death for colorectal carcinoma patients. Depending on the primary tumor's stage, liver metastases occur in 20% to 70% of patients and lung metastases in 10% to 20%. Unlike many other cancers, the presence of distant metastases from colorectal cancer does not preclude curative treatment.
