Abstract
This review summarizes the key applications of a hybrid operating room (HOR) in hepatobiliary surgery and explores the advantages, limitations, and future directions of its utilization. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed to identify articles reporting on the utilization of HORs in liver surgery. So far, the HOR has been limitedly applied in hepatobiliary surgery. It can offer an optimal environment for combining radiological and surgical interventions and for performing image-guided surgical navigation.

Combined hepatic resection and ablation for high burden of colorectal liver metastases demonstrates safety and durable survival. HPB (Oxford) 2024; 26:362-369. [PMID: 38008683 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2023.11.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic resection (HR) and thermal ablation of Colorectal Liver Metastases (CRLM) have each individually demonstrated safety and survival benefit. We sought to provide our experience with the combination of HR + ablation within one operation for patients with multiple CRLM. METHODS Review of a single institution database of patients who underwent HR + ablation between 2010 and 2019. RESULTS 161 patients were identified who underwent HR + ablation for isolated CRLM (mean age: 59, male 63.4%). 125 (77.6%) patients had bilobar disease and 92 (57.1%) patients had ≥5 tumors. 28 (17.4%) patients experienced minor (grade 1 or 2) complications while 20 (12.4%) had grade 3-5 complications. Patients who underwent simultaneous colon resection with HR + ablation had a higher complication rate (22 of 47, 46.8%) than those undergoing HR + ablation only (26 of 114, 22.8%, p = 0.002). Median and 5-year OS for all patients undergoing HR + ablation was 38.2 months and 33.2%, respectively. 5-year hepatic recurrence free survival was 23.5%. Patients with 5 or more tumors demonstrated no difference in median survival compared to those with fewer than 5 tumors (37.0 months vs 38.4 months, p = 0.326). CONCLUSIONS In this population of CRLM patients with a relatively high burden of disease, HR + ablation demonstrated an acceptable safety profile as well as durable long-term survival.

Abstract
Despite recent advances in cancer therapeutics, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains a lethal disease with a 5-year overall survival of only 10%. Since either at or within a few months of diagnosis, most patients with PDAC will present with metastatic disease, a more individualized approach to select patients who may benefit from more aggressive therapy has been suggested. Although studies have reported improved survival in PDAC and isolated pulmonary metastasis (ISP) compared to extrapulmonary metastases, such findings remain controversial. Furthermore, the added benefit of pulmonary metastasectomy and other lung-directed therapies remains unclear. In this review, we discuss the metastatic pattern of PDAC, evaluate the available evidence in the literature for improved survival in PDAC and ISP, evaluate the evidence for the added benefit of pulmonary metastasectomy and other lung-directed therapies, identify prognostic factors for survival, discuss the biological basis for the reported improved survival and identify areas for further research.

Optimizing Treatment Strategy for Oligometastases/Oligo-Recurrence of Colorectal Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 16:142. [PMID: 38201569 PMCID: PMC10777959 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16010142] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer, and nearly half of CRC patients experience metastases. Oligometastatic CRC represents a distinct clinical state characterized by limited metastatic involvement, demonstrating a less aggressive nature and potentially improved survival with multidisciplinary treatment. However, the varied clinical scenarios giving rise to oligometastases necessitate a precise definition, considering primary tumor status and oncological factors, to optimize treatment strategies. This review delineates the concepts of oligometastatic CRC, encompassing oligo-recurrence, where the primary tumor is under control, resulting in a more favorable prognosis. A comprehensive examination of multidisciplinary treatment with local treatments and systemic therapy is provided. The overarching objective in managing oligometastatic CRC is the complete eradication of metastases, offering prospects of a cure. Essential to this management approach are local treatments, with surgical resection serving as the standard of care. Percutaneous ablation and stereotactic body radiotherapy present less invasive alternatives for lesions unsuitable for surgery, demonstrating efficacy in select cases. Perioperative systemic therapy, aiming to control micrometastatic disease and enhance local treatment effectiveness, has shown improvements in progression-free survival through clinical trials. However, the extension of overall survival remains variable. The review emphasizes the need for further prospective trials to establish a cohesive definition and an optimized treatment strategy for oligometastatic CRC.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States and accounts for an estimated 1 million deaths annually worldwide. The liver is the most common site of metastatic spread from colorectal cancer, significantly driving both morbidity and mortality. Although remarkable advances have been made in recent years in the management for patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases, significant challenges remain in early detection, prevention of progression and recurrence, and in the development of more effective therapeutics. In 2017, our group held a multidisciplinary state-of-the-science symposium to discuss the rapidly evolving clinical and scientific advances in the field of colorectal liver metastases, including novel early detection and prognostic liquid biomarkers, identification of high-risk cohorts, advances in tumor-immune therapy, and different regional and systemic therapeutic strategies. Since that time, there have been scientific discoveries translating into therapeutic innovations addressing the current management challenges. These innovations are currently reshaping the treatment paradigms and spurring further scientific discovery. Herein, we present an updated discussion of both the scientific and clinical advances and future directions in the management of colorectal liver metastases, including adoptive T-cell therapies, novel blood-based biomarkers, and the role of the tumor microbiome. In addition, we provide a comprehensive overview detailing the role of modern multidisciplinary clinical approaches used in the management of patients with colorectal liver metastases, including considerations toward specific molecular tumor profiles identified on next generation sequencing, as well as quality of life implications for these innovative treatments.

Liu M, Wang Y, Wang K, Bao Q, Wang H, Jin K, Liu W, Yan X, Xing B. Combined ablation and resection (CARe) for resectable colorectal cancer liver Metastases-A propensity score matching study. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:106931. [PMID: 37183048 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2023.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of combining ablation and resection (CARe) in treating unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) was well established. This study aimed to investigate the surgical and oncological outcomes of CARe strategy focusing on initially resectable CRLM. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 971 patients with resectable CRLM from a retrospective database of 1414 CRLM patients were enrolled, including 120 in the CARe group and 851 in the hepatectomy alone group. Short- and long-term outcomes were compared between groups using propensity score matching analysis. RESULTS After propensity score matching, 96 matched pairs of patients from each group were included. General characteristics of primary tumour and liver metastases were not statistically different between the CARe group and hepatectomy alone group. Disease-free survival (p = 0.257), intrahepatic recurrence-free survival (p = 0.329), and overall survival (p = 0.358) were similar between the two groups. Patients in CARe group had significantly reduced rate of major hepatectomy (5.2% vs. 21.9%, p = 0.001), lower incidence of postoperative hepatic insufficiency (0.0% vs. 5.2%, p = 0.023), and shortened postoperative hospital stay (7 d vs. 8 d, p = 0.019). Multivariate analysis showed that surgical approach did not affect oncologic outcome; liver metastasis with diameter >3 cm was an independent prognostic factor for hepatic recurrence-free and disease-free survival, and RAS status and lymph node metastasis at the primary site were independent prognostic factors for overall survival. CONCLUSION For patients with resectable CRLM, CARe may be a better treatment strategy than hepatectomy alone, as it could avoid major hepatectomy and get better surgical outcomes, while providing the similar oncologic results.

Abstract
Background Currently, surgical resection is the mainstay for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) management and the only potentially curative treatment modality. Prognostication tools can support patient selection for surgical resection to maximize therapeutic benefit. This study aimed to develop a survival prediction model using machine learning based on a multicenter patient sample in Hong Kong. Methods Patients who underwent hepatectomy for CRLM between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2018 in four hospitals in Hong Kong were included in the study. Survival analysis was performed using Cox proportional hazards (CPH). A stepwise selection on Cox multivariable models with Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression was applied to a multiply-imputed dataset to build a prediction model. The model was validated in the validation set, and its performance was compared with that of Fong Clinical Risk Score (CRS) using concordance index. Results A total of 572 patients were included with a median follow-up of 3.6 years. The full models for overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) consist of the same 8 established and novel variables, namely colorectal cancer nodal stage, CRLM neoadjuvant treatment, Charlson Comorbidity Score, pre-hepatectomy bilirubin and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels, CRLM largest tumor diameter, extrahepatic metastasis detected on positron emission-tomography (PET)-scan as well as KRAS status. Our CRLM Machine-learning Algorithm Prognostication model (CMAP) demonstrated better ability to predict OS (C-index =0.651), compared with the Fong CRS for 1-year (C-index =0.571) and 5-year OS (C-index =0.574). It also achieved a C-index of 0.651 for RFS. Conclusions We present a promising machine learning algorithm to individualize prognostications for patients following resection of CRLM with good discriminative ability.

Intra-operative High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound in Patients With Colorectal Liver Metastases: A Prospective Ablate-and-Resect Study. ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE & BIOLOGY 2023; 49:1845-1851. [PMID: 37268553 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultrasmedbio.2023.04.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 06/04/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a recent, non-ionizing and non-invasive technology of focal destruction. Independence from the heat-sink effect of blood flow makes HIFU an interesting technique for focal ablation of liver tumors. Current available technology is based on extracorporeal treatment that limits use of HIFU for the treatment of liver tumors, as elementary ablations are small and must be juxtaposed to treat tumors, resulting in long-duration treatment. We developed an HIFU probe with toroidal technology, which increases the volume of ablation, for intra-operative use, and we assessed the feasibility and efficacy of this device in patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CLM) measuring less than 30 mm. METHODS This study was an ablate-and-resect, prospective, single-center, phase II study. All ablations were performed in the area of liver scheduled for liver resection to avoid loss of chance of recovery. The primary objective was to ablate CLM with safety margins (>5 mm). RESULTS Between May 2014 and July 2020, 15 patients were enrolled and 24 CLM were targeted. The HIFU ablation time was 370 s. In total, 23 of 24 CLM were successfully treated (95.8%). No damage occurred to extrahepatic tissues. HIFU ablations were oblate shaped with an average long axis of 44.3 ± 6.1 mm and an average shortest axis of 35.9 ± 6.7 mm. On pathological examination, the average diameter of the treated metastasis was 12.2 ± 4.8 mm. CONCLUSION Intra-operative HIFU can safely and accurately produce large ablations in 6 min with real-time guidance (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01489787).

Abstract
Contrast-enhanced intraoperative ultrasound (CE-IOUS) is a relatively new but valuable tool that is increasingly used as an adjunct to computed tomography, MRI, and IOUS for patients undergoing liver surgery. CE-IOUS has an important role in 2 main settings: the discrimination of indeterminate lesions detected in cirrhotic livers by conventional IOUS and in the detection of colorectal liver metastasis that may be overlooked by other imaging modalities. The intraoperative nature of the imaging and interpretation allows for CE-IOUS to directly affect surgical decision-making that may importantly affect patient outcomes.

Short- and long-term outcomes of hepatectomy combined with intraoperative radiofrequency ablation for patients with multiple primarily unresectable colorectal liver metastases: a propensity matching analysis. HPB (Oxford) 2021; 23:1586-1594. [PMID: 33934959 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2021.03.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Revised: 02/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatectomy combined with intraoperative radiofrequency ablation (IORFA) is a strategy to eliminate all tumors in patients with multiple colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). This study aimed to evaluate the surgical and oncological outcomes of hepatectomy + IORFA for multiple unresectable CRLM. METHODS We included patients who underwent combined hepatectomy and IORFA for multiple unresectable CRLM (n = 67) or hepatectomy alone (n = 268) for CRLM. Patients were matched in a 1:1 propensity score analysis to compare the short- and long-term outcomes between groups. RESULTS Patients in hepatectomy + IORFA group had a median number of 10 liver lesions. Postoperative morbidity and the rate of major complications was similar between groups (P = 0.362, P = 1.000). The median overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS) and hepatic recurrence free survival (HRFS) was similar between groups (3-year OS: 54.2% versus 60.9%, P = 0.389; 3-year PFS: 7.9% versus 19.6%, P = 0.148; 3-year HRFS: 16.7% versus 31.5%, P = 0.202). Re-hepatectomy or radiofrequency ablation was used to treat 47.5% of hepatic recurrences, and the median OS was significantly higher than for patients treated with systemic treatment alone (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Combining hepatectomy and IORFA could provide comparable survival rates for patients with multiple unresectable CRLM compared to those with resectable CRLM treated with hepatectomy alone.

A meta-analysis evaluating contrast-enhanced intraoperative ultrasound (CE-IOUS) in the context of surgery for colorectal liver metastases. Abdom Radiol (NY) 2021; 46:4178-4188. [PMID: 33969446 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-021-03096-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2021] [Revised: 04/09/2021] [Accepted: 04/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess the outcomes of contrast-enhanced intraoperative ultrasound (CE-IOUS) for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) undergoing surgery. METHOD A thorough literature search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane databases, in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. The Odds Ratio, Weighted Mean Difference, and 95% Confidence Interval were evaluated, by means of Random-Effects model. RESULTS Eleven articles met the inclusion criteria and incorporated 497 patients. The present study shows that CE-IOUS is associated with higher sensitivity and accuracy compared with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) in identifying CRLMs (p < 0.05). The positive predictive value was similar among the different modalities. Furthermore, new CRLMs were identified by CE-IOUS, thus affecting the surgical plan in 128 patients (51.8% of the patients with new CRLMs). Moreover, 91 patients (71%) underwent a more extensive hepatectomy and 15 patients (11.7%) were considered non-operable. Two alternative contrast agents, Sonazoid and Sonovue, were employed with similar sensitivity (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION These outcomes suggest the superiority of the CE-IOUS over MDCT, MRI, and IOUS for the staging of patients with CRLMs undergoing surgery. However, they should be treated with caution given the small number of the included studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CRC-LM), liver surgery combined with systemic therapies and local ablation (LAT) allows improved survival. This study aims at the outcomes of patients with complex bilobar CRC-LM who were intended to undergo multimodal therapy with liver resection and LAT. METHODS Forty-three CRC-LM patients with recommendation for multimodal treament were extracted from 5878 tumor board decisions between 2014 and 2017. Outcome variables included patient survival, as well as completion of hepatic clearance. Prognostic factors were identified by correlation and a Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS Out of 43 patients only 23 achieved complete clearance of CRC-LM. One- and 3-year overall survival of patients with cleared liver disease was 100% and 91.7%, respectively, as compared to 83.8% and 12.1%. Incomplete hepatic clearance was the strongest independent risk factor for overall survival (hazards ratio [HR], 5.86; p = .009). Risk factors for incomplete clearance were higher age (r = .34; p = .026), comorbidities (r = .40; p = .008), major complications (r = .34; p = .024), and prolonged intensive care unit stay (r = .41; p = .017). CONCLUSION Completion of hepatic clearance is crucial to achieve long-term survival in patients with complex bilobar CRC-LM. Careful patient selection and treatment planning should avoid treatment failure before completing the intended therapy plan when multimodal treatments are planned.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic ablation (LA) of colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) is frequently performed in combination with laparoscopic liver resection or as a stand-alone procedure. However, LA is technically demanding and whether the results are comparable with those of open ablation (OA) has not been determined to date. This study compared the effectiveness of LA and OA in achieving local tumor control of CRLMs. METHODS Patients undergoing LA or OA of CRLMs at Ghent University Hospital between June 2007 and February 2018 were identified from a prospective database. Lesions treated by LA and OA were matched 1:1 using a propensity score based on lesions (liver segment, size, deepness, proximity to a vessel), patients, and procedural characteristics. Ablation sites were followed up with computed-tomography or magnetic resonance imaging to assess the completeness of the ablation and ablation-site recurrence (ASR). Analysis of ASR was performed with the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression. RESULTS In this study, 163 patients underwent the surgical ablation (78 LA, 85 OA) of 333 CRLMs (143 LA, 190 OA). After matching, 220 lesions (110 LA, 110 OA) were analyzed. Ablation was complete in 93.7% (LA) and 97.3% (OA) of the sites (p = 0.195). No difference in ASR was observed (p = 0.351), with a cumulative risk of ASR at 12 months of 9.1% (LA) and 8.2% (OA). After multivariable analysis, ASR was confirmed to be independent of the surgical approach. CONCLUSION The findings showed that LA and OA achieve a comparable local control of CRLMs. This result further supports the adoption of a laparoscopic approach for the treatment of CRLMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short treatment-duration with early restaging is crucial to avoid liver injury after preoperative chemotherapy (preopCTX) for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Response evaluation according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) criteria implies several limitations. Early tumor shrinkage (ETS; ≥20% size reduction <6-12 weeks) or morphological criteria (MC) may better predict oncological outcome. METHODS In patients undergoing resection after preopCTX between 2003-2017 pathological and radiological response was reassessed according to Blazer classification, ETS, MC, and RECIST within 90 days and correlated with survival. RESULTS Seventy-two patients were included, with a median of two (1-10) liver lesions, 53% bilobar involvement, and 7% extrahepatic disease. PreopCTX was applied for 3 months in median (1-6). During restaging after a median of 62 days, presence of ETS was associated with improved median overall survival (OS; 57.1 vs 33.7 months; P = .010) and disease-free survival (16 vs 7.2 months; P = .025). MC significantly correlated with major pathological response (P = .021). When combining ETS with optimal MC, presence of one or both factors was associated with pathological response (61.5% and 92.3%; P = .044) and OS in log-rank (P = .011), and multivariable analysis (hazard ratio [HR] 0.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.19-0.90 and HR 0.32; 95%CI, 0.11-0.97). CONCLUSION Response-grading by combined ETS/MC criteria less than 90 days after preopCTX initiation predicts pathological response and postoperative survival in CRLM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver resection is a treatment of choice for colorectal and neuroendocrine liver metastases, and laparoscopy is an accepted approach for surgical treatment of these patients. The role of liver resection for patients with non-colorectal non-neuroendocrine liver metastases (NCNNLM), however, is still disputable. Outcomes of laparoscopic liver resection for this group of patients have not been analyzed. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this retrospective study, patients who underwent laparoscopic liver resection for NCNNLM at Oslo University Hospital between April 2000 and January 2018 were analyzed. Perioperative and oncologic data of these patients were examined. Postoperative morbidity was classified using the Accordion classification. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. Median follow-up was 26 (IQR, 12-41) months. RESULTS Fifty-one patients were identified from a prospectively collected database. The histology of primary tumors was classified as adenocarcinoma (n = 16), sarcoma (n = 4), squamous cell carcinoma (n = 4), melanoma (n = 16), gastrointestinal stromal tumor (n = 9), and adrenocortical carcinoma (n = 2). The median operative time was 147 (IQR, 95-225) min, while the median blood loss was 200 (IQR, 50-500) ml. Nine (18%) patients experienced postoperative complications. There was no 90-day mortality in this study. Thirty-five (68%) patients developed disease recurrence or progression. Seven (14%) patients underwent repeat surgical procedure for recurrent liver metastases. One-, three-, and five-year overall survival rates were 85%, 52%, and 38%, respectively. The median overall survival was 37 (95%CI, 25 to 49) months. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic liver resection for NCNNLM results in good outcomes and should be considered in patients selected for surgical treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents a major cause for cancer death and every third patient develops liver metastases (CRLM). Several factors including number and size of metastases and primary tumour lymph-node status have been linked to survival. The primary tumour location along the colo-rectum continuum (sidedness) was analysed in first-line chemotherapy trials, where right-sided CRCs showed decreased survival. This association has not yet been clearly established in patients undergoing resection for CRLM. METHODS Clinicopathological differences in CRLM resections according to sidedness in two Austrian centres (2003-2016) are described and survival is compared through Kaplan-Meier and multivariable analysis. A risk-score is presented with time-dependent receiver operating curve analysis and international validation in two major hepatobiliary centres. Furthermore, a systematic meta-analysis of studies on primary tumour location and survival after CRLM resection was performed. RESULTS 259 patients underwent hepatectomy. Right-sided CRC patients (n = 59) more often had positive primary tumour lymph-nodes (76.3%/61.3%;p = 0.043) and RAS-mutations (60%/34.9%;p = 0.036). The median overall and disease-free survival was 33.5 and 9.1 months in right-sided versus 55.5 (p = 0.051) and 12.1 months (p = 0.078) in left-sided patients. In multivariable analysis nodal-status (HR 1.52), right-sidedness (HR 1.53), extrahepatic disease (HR 1.71) and bilobar hepatic involvement (HR 1.41) were significantly associated with overall survival. Sidedness was not independently associated with disease-free survival (HR 1.33; p = 0.099). A clinical risk score including right-sidedness, nodal-positivity and extrahepatic involvement significantly predicted overall (p = 0.005) and disease-free survival (p = 0.027), which was confirmed by international validation in 527 patients (p = 0.001 and p = 0.011). Meta-analysis including 10 studies (n = 4312) showed a significant association of right-sidedness with overall survival after resection (HR 1.55;p<0.001). There was no significant association with disease-free survival (HR 1.22;p = 0.077), except when rectal-cancers were excluded (HR 1.39;p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS Patients with liver metastases from right-sided CRC experience worse survival after hepatic resection. Sidedness is a simple yet effective factor to predict outcome.

Abstract
Liver metastasis is the commonest form of distant metastasis in colorectal cancer. Selection criteria for surgery and liver-directed therapies have recently been extended. However, resectability remains poorly defined. Tumour biology is increasingly recognized as an important prognostic factor; hence molecular profiling has a growing role in risk stratification and management planning. Surgical resection is the only treatment modality for curative intent. The most appropriate surgical approach is yet to be established. The primary cancer and the hepatic metastasis can be removed simultaneously or in a two-step approach; these two strategies have comparable long-term outcomes. For patients with a limited future liver remnant, portal vein embolization, combined ablation and resection, and associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy have been advocated, and each has their pros and cons. The role of neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy is still debated. Targeted biological agents and loco-regional therapies (thermal ablation, intra-arterial chemo- or radio-embolization, and stereotactic radiotherapy) further improve the already favourable results. The recent debate about offering liver transplantation to highly selected patients needs validation from large clinical trials. Evidence-based protocols are missing, and therefore optimal management of hepatic metastasis should be personalized and determined by a multi-disciplinary team.

Abstract
Background Hepatic surgery is appropriate for selected patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Advances in chemotherapy have led to modification of management, particularly when metastases disappear. Treatment should address all initial CRLM sites based on pretherapeutic cross-sectional imaging. This study aimed to evaluate pretherapeutic fiducial marker placement to optimize CRLM treatment. Methods This pilot investigation included patients with CRLM who were considered for potentially curative treatment between 2009 and 2016. According to a multidisciplinary team decision, lesions smaller than 25 mm in diameter that were more than 10 mm deep in the hepatic parenchyma and located outside the field of a planned resection were marked. Complication rates and clinicopathological data were analysed. Results Some 76 metastases were marked in 43 patients among 217 patients with CRLM treated with curative intent. Of these, 23 marked CRLM (30 per cent), with a mean(s.d.) size of 11·0(3·4) mm, disappeared with preoperative chemotherapy. There were four complications associated with marking: two intrahepatic haematomas, one fiducial migration and one misplacement. After a median follow-up of 47·7 (range 18·1-144·9) months, no needle-track seeding was noted. Of four disappearing CRLM that were marked and resected, two presented with persistent active disease. Other missing lesions were treated with thermoablation. Conclusion Pretherapeutic fiducial marker placement appears useful for the curative management of CRLM.

Is bile leakage after hepatic resection associated with impaired long-term survival? Eur J Surg Oncol 2019; 45:1077-1083.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bile leakage (BL) is a frequent and severe complication following liver surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate risk factors for BL, related other complications and association with long-term survival. METHODS This study included all patients undergoing hepatectomy in a single centre from 2005 to 2016. Perioperative risk factors related to BL were identified using univariable and multivariable analysis. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. RESULTS BL occurred in 48 of 458 patients (11%). BLs were more frequent in patients after major hepatectomy (p = 0.001). Portal vein embolization, bilioenteric-anastomosis, lymphadenectomy, vascular reconstruction and operative time were significant factors for developing BL. Comparing patients with or without BL, BL was more commonly associated with other postoperative complications (p = 0.001), especially acute kidney failure and surgical-site-infections. There was no difference in 90-day-mortality (p = 0.124). The median disease-free survival was comparable (17 vs. 15 months, p = 0.976), also no difference was observed when stratifying for different tumour entities. There was no difference in median overall survival (OS) among malignant disease (35 vs. 47 months, p = 0.200) and in 3-year OS (46% vs. 59%). Multivariate analysis confirmed that postoperative liver failure and major hepatectomy were risk factors for reduced OS (p = 0.010). CONCLUSIONS Many concerns have been raised regarding tumour progression after major complications. In this study, we only found a relevant influence of BL on OS in pCC, whereas no association was seen in other cancer types, indicating that tumour progression might be triggered by BL in cancer types arising from the bile ducts itself.

Progressive Oncological Surgery Is Associated with Increased Curative Resection Rates and Improved Survival in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11020218. [PMID: 30769860 PMCID: PMC6406820 DOI: 10.3390/cancers11020218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2019] [Revised: 02/07/2019] [Accepted: 02/12/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Secondary resection rates in first-line chemotherapy trials for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) remain below 15%, representing a clear contrast to reports by specialised surgical centres, where progressive liver, peritoneal-surface, and pulmonary surgery increased access to curative-intent treatment. We present a long-term evaluation of oncosurgical management in a single-centre, analysing the aggregate effect of gradual implementation of surgical subspecialties and systemic treatments on mCRC patients’ resection rates and prognosis. Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed mCRC from 2003 to 2014 were retrospectively categorised into palliative treatment (PAT) and curative intent surgery (CIS) and three time periods were analysed for treatment changes and factors associated with survival. Results: Four hundred-twenty patients were treated (PAT:250/CIS:170). Over time periods, the number of presenting patients remained consistent, whereas curative resection rates increased from 29% to 55%, facilitated by an increment of patients undergoing hepatectomy (21 to 35%), pulmonary surgery (6 to 17%), and peritonectomy/intraoperative chemotherapy (0 to 8%). Also, recently, significantly more multi-line systemic treatments were applied. The median survival markedly improved from 21.9 months (2003–2006; 95% confidence interval (CI) 17.3–26.5) to 36.5 months (2011–2014; 95% CI 26.6–46.4; p = 0.018). PAT was a significant factor of poor survival and diagnosis of mCRC in the latest time period was independently associated with a distinctly lower risk for palliative treatment (odds ratio 0.15). Conclusions: In modern eras of medical oncology, achieving appropriate resection rates through utilization of state-of-the-art oncological surgery by dedicated experts represents a cornerstone for long-term survival in mCRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical outcomes for elderly patients undergoing liver resection for colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases are poorly characterised. This study aimed to investigate the impact of advancing age on the incidence of liver resection and post-operative outcomes. METHODS Patients in the National Bowel Cancer Audit undergoing major CRC resection from 2010 to 2016 in England were included. Liver resection was identified from linked Hospital Episode Statistics data. A Cox-proportional hazards model was used to compare 3-year mortality. RESULTS Of 117,005 patients, 6081 underwent liver resection. For patients <65 years there was 1 liver resection per 12 cases, 65-74, 1 per 17, and ≥75, 1 per 40. 90-day mortality after liver resection increased with advancing age (<65 0.9% (26/2829), 65-74 2.8% (57/2070), ≥75 4.0% (47/1182); P < 0.001). Age was an independent risk factor for 3-year mortality. Patients 65-74 did not have adjusted mortality higher than those <65, yet age ≥75 was associated with increased overall mortality (Hazard ratio (HR) 1.47 (95% CI 1.30-1.68)) and cancer-specific mortality (HR 1.30 (95% CI 1.13-1.49)). CONCLUSION Although advancing age was associated with higher rates of 90-day mortality following liver resection, 3-year mortality for patients 65-74 years was comparable to younger patients. These results will aid clinicians and patients in pre-operative decision-making.

Abstract
Liver metastasis (LM) is one of the major causes of death in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Approximately 60% of CRC patients develop LM during the course of their illness. About 85% of these patients have unresectable disease at the time of presentation. Surgical resection is currently the only curative treatment for patients with colorectal LM (CRLM). In recent years, with the help of modern multimodality therapy including systemic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery, the outcomes of CRLM treatment have significantly improved. This article summarizes the current status of surgical treatment of CRLM including evaluation of resectability, treatment for resectable LM, conversion therapy and liver transplantation for unresectable cases, liver resection for recurrent CRLM and elderly patients, and surgery for concomitant hepatic and extra-hepatic metastatic disease (EHMD). We believe that with the help of modern multimodality therapy, an aggressive oncosurgical approach should be implemented as it has the possibility of achieving a cure, even when EHMD is present in patients with CRLM.

Abstract
The treatment of advanced colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) follows the biphasic pattern characteristic of oncological surgery. A phase of escalation-the therapeutic aggressiveness-is followed by a phase of de-escalation aimed at decreasing the morbidity, while preserving the gains in survival. From a maximum of three lesions, the rule no longer limits the number, provided the intervention does not cause lethal liver failure. Technically feasible non-anatomical resections, two-stage hepatectomies, portal vein obliteration and so forth, have pushed the boundaries of surgery far. However, the impact and the biology of metastatic processes have been long ignored. Parenchymal sparing surgery (PSS) is a de-escalation strategy that targets only metastasis by minimising the risk of stimulating tumour growth, while enabling iterative interventions. Reducing the loss of healthy parenchyma increases the tolerance of the liver to interval chemotherapy. Technically, PSS could use any type of hepatectomy, providing it is centred on the metastatic load alongside intraoperative ablation. The PSS concept sometimes wrongly comes across as a debate between minor versus major hepatectomies. Hence, we propose a clear definition, both quantitative and qualitative, of what PSS is and what it is not. Conversely, the degree of selectivity of PSS as a percentage of the volume of resected metastases versus the volume of total liver removed has not been stopped to date and should be the subject of prospective studies. Ultimately, the treatment of advanced CRLMs, of which PSS is a part, needs to be personalised by the multidisciplinary team by adapting its response to each new recurrence.

Abstract
Synchronous colorectal carcinoma (SCRC) indicates more than one primary colorectal carcinoma (CRC) discovered at the time of initial presentation, accounts for 3.1%-3.9% of CRC, and may occur either in the same or in different colorectal segments. The accurate preoperative diagnosis of SCRC is difficult and diagnostic failures may lead to inappropriate treatment and poorer prognosis. SCRC requires colorectal resections tailored to individual patients, based on the number, location, and stage of the tumours, from conventional or extended hemicolectomies to total colectomy or proctocolectomy, when established predisposing conditions exist. The overall perioperative risks of surgery for SCRC seem to be higher than for solitary CRC. Simultaneous colorectal and liver resection represents an appealing surgical strategy in selected patients with CRC and synchronous liver metastases (CRLM), even though the cumulative risks of the two procedures need to be adequately evaluated. Simultaneous resections have the noticeable advantage of avoiding a second laparotomy, give the opportunity of an earlier initiation of adjuvant therapy, and may significantly reduce the hospital costs. Because an increasing number of recent studies have shown good results, with morbidity, perioperative hospitalization, and mortality rates comparable to staged resections, simultaneous procedures can be selectively proposed even in case of complex colorectal resections, including those for SCRC and rectal cancer. However, in patients with multiple bilobar CRLM, major hepatectomies performed simultaneously with colorectal resection have been associated with significant perioperative risks. Conservative or parenchymal-sparing hepatectomies reduce the extent of hepatectomy while preserving oncological radicality, and may represent the best option for selected patients with multiple CRLM involving both liver lobes. Parenchymal-sparing liver resection, instead of major or two-stage hepatectomy for bilobar disease, seemingly reduces the overall operative risk of candidates to simultaneous colorectal and liver resection, and may represent the most appropriate surgical strategy whenever possible, also for patients with advanced SCRC and multiple bilobar liver metastases.

Radiofrequency ablation for colorectal cancer liver metastases initially greater than 25 mm but downsized by neo-adjuvant chemotherapy is associated with increased rate of local tumor progression. HPB (Oxford) 2018; 20:76-82. [PMID: 29029986 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2017.08.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2017] [Revised: 08/18/2017] [Accepted: 08/26/2017] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a valid treatment for liver metastases from colorectal cancer (CRLM) smaller than 25 mm and unsuitable for surgical resection. Tumor size is predictive for local tumor progression (LTP). The aim of this study was to evaluate whether RFA is indicated for lesions >25 mm at presentation but <25 mm after chemotherapy. METHOD Patients who underwent RFA for CRLM after chemotherapy (January 2004-December 2012) were reviewed. Metastases were classified according to their size. Group 1: ≤25 mm before and after chemotherapy. Group 2A: >25 mm before but ≤25 mm after chemotherapy. Group 2B: >25 mm before and after chemotherapy. RESULTS 133 CRLM were ablated in 83 patients (median follow-up 56 months). At 1-year, the LTP rate was higher in group 2A than in group 1 (32% vs. 16%, p ≤ 0.001). The highest rate of 1-year LTP was 64% in group 2B. Time to LTP (TLTP) was shorter in group 2A than in group 1 (HR: 2.89; 95% CI [1.04-8.01]; p = 0.004). Following multivariate analysis, the group type was the only predictive factor for TLTP (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS RFA is not the optimal treatment for CRLM > 25 mm at presentation.

Thermographic real-time-monitoring of surgical radiofrequency and microwave ablation in a perfused porcine liver model. Oncol Lett 2017; 15:2913-2920. [PMID: 29435018 PMCID: PMC5778864 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2017.7634] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2017] [Accepted: 11/21/2017] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA) are currently the dominant modalities to treat unresectable liver tumors. Monitoring the ablation process with b-mode-sonography is often hampered by artefacts. Furthermore, vessels may cause cooling in the adjacent tumor target (heat-sink-effect) with risk of local recurrence. The present study evaluated infrared-thermography to monitor surgical RFA/MWA and detect heat-sink-effects in real-time. RFA and MWA of perfused porcine livers was conducted at peripheral and central-vessel-adjacent locations, and monitored by real-time thermography. Ablation was measured and evaluated by gross pathology. The mean time for ablation was significantly longer in RFA compared with MWA (8 vs. 2 min). Although mean macroscopic ablation diameter was similar (RFA, 3.17 cm; MWA, 3.38 cm), RFA showed a significant heat-sink-effect compared with MWA. The surface temperature during central RFA near vessels was 1/3 lower compared with peripheral RFA (47.11±8.35°C vs. 68.72±12.70°C; P<0.001). There was no significant difference in MWA (50.52±8.35°C vs. 50.18±10.35°C; P=0.74). In conclusion, thermography is suitable to monitor the correct ablation with MWA and RFA. The results of the current study demonstrated a significant heat-sink-effect for RFA, but not MWA near vessels. MWA reaches consistent surface temperatures much faster than RFA. With further in vivo validation, thermography may be useful to ensure appropriate ablation particularly near vulnerable or vascular structures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Combination hepatic artery infusion (HAI) and systemic (SYS) chemotherapy for unresectable CRLM results in high tumor-response rates. This study represents an update of long-term survival and conversion to resectability in patients with unresectable CRLM treated with HAI and SYS chemotherapy in a phase II study. METHOD The primary endpoint was complete resection. Multivariate and landmark analysis assessed the effect of complete resection on progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS From 2007 to 2012, 64 patients with median of 13 tumors were enrolled; 67% had prior chemotherapy. 33 patients (52%) were converted to resection. Median follow-up among survivors was 81 months. Median PFS and OS were 13 and 38 months, respectively, with 5-year-OS of 36%. Chemotherapy-naïve patients had 5-year-OS of 51%. Conversion to resection was the only independent factor prognostic of improved PFS and OS. Nine of 64 patients (14%) are NED (five since initial resection, three after resection of recurrent disease, one from chemotherapy alone) at median follow-up of 86 months from treatment initiation, and 72 months from last operative intervention. CONCLUSION Combination HAI and SYS is an effective therapy for high-volume unresectable CRLM, resulting in a high rate of resection, long-term survival, and the potential for cure.

Abstract
Background Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) is increasingly performed in specialized centers. While there is a trend towards a parenchyma-sparing strategy in multimodal treatment for CLM, its role is yet unclear. In this study we present short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic parenchyma-sparing liver resection (LPSLR) at a single center. Patients and methods LLR were performed in 951 procedures between August 1998 and March 2017 at Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway. Patients who primarily underwent LPSLR for CLM were included in the study. LPSLR was defined as non-anatomic hence the patients who underwent hemihepatectomy and sectionectomy were excluded. Perioperative and oncologic outcomes were analyzed. The Accordion classification was used to grade postoperative complications. The median follow-up was 40 months. Results 296 patients underwent primary LPSLR for CLM. A single specimen was resected in 204 cases, multiple resections were performed in 92 cases. 5 laparoscopic operations were converted to open. The median operative time was 134 minutes, blood loss was 200 ml and hospital stay was 3 days. There was no 90-day mortality in this study. The postoperative complication rate was 14.5%. 189 patients developed disease recurrence. Recurrence in the liver occurred in 146 patients (49%), of whom 85 patients underwent repeated surgical treatment (liver resection [n = 69], ablation [n = 14] and liver transplantation [n = 2]). Five-year overall survival was 48%, median overall survival was 56 months. Conclusions LPSLR of CLM can be performed safely with the good surgical and oncological results. The technique facilitates repeated surgical treatment, which may improve survival for patients with CLM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The definition of parenchymal sparing surgery (PSS) for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) diverges requiring a clarification of the concept. METHOD A consecutive series of patients were treated by PSS for their CRLMs, either by resection or intra-operative ablation (IOA), whenever possible a one-stage surgery and minimal usage of portal vein embolization. Post-operative complications were the primary endpoint with a special focus on post-operative liver failure. RESULTS Three hundred and eighty-seven patients underwent a PSS out of which 328 patients received a median of 9 pre-operative cycles of chemotherapy. One hundred and twenty-eight patients had a major resection, combined with IOA in 137 patients and IOA alone in 50 cases. The 5yr-overall survival was 50.3%. There was no difference in post-operative complications between minor and major resections, validating our PSS definition based on the Tumor burden/Healthy liver ratio and not just the retrieved volume. CONCLUSIONS PSS is defined as a high ratio of tumoral burden per specimen retrieved while favoring one-stage surgery approach. Our series, using combined resections and IOAs, matches this definition well. Furthermore, complications were correlated neither to chemotherapy nor to liver-induced toxicities, contrary to extended hepatectomies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study analysed the effect of age on survival in patients undergoing major hepatectomy (MH) for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). The effect of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) with age was also assessed. METHOD Patients undergoing MH for CRLM between 1996 and 2011 were reviewed. Patients aged <75 or ≥75 were compared for disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS) as well as impact of AC on survival. RESULTS Seven hundred twenty-seven patients underwent MH of which 105 (14 %) were aged ≥75. Morbidity was greater in the ≥75 group (25 versus 34 %, p = 0.048). No difference was noted in mortality. There was no difference in DFS between the two groups at 5 years (16.8 vs 18.9 months (p = 0.570). OS was longer in the <75 group (38.6 vs 32.0 months (p = 0.001). DFS was better in groups receiving AC than those not (<75 24.2 vs 12.2 months (p = <0.001) and ≥75 24 vs 12.1 months (p = 0.007)). OS in the ≥75 group was improved in the group receiving AC compared to the ≥75 group not (41.1 vs 16.6 months, p = 0.005). Age ≥75 was not an independent risk factor for reduced DFS on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Well-selected patients aged ≥75 should be considered for MH followed by adjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract
Resection of colorectal liver metastases is a treatment standard because patients experience long-term disease-free survival or are even cured after undergoing this procedure. Improved surgical techniques for liver resection in combination with downsizing liver metastases by chemotherapy, interventions to induce liver hypertrophy before resection, and the use of ablative techniques have allowed us to expand the indications for liver surgery and local treatment in situations with limited metastatic colorectal cancer. Resectability and identification of patients who might benefit from liver surgery and local ablative techniques are key factors for the treatment of patients with colorectal cancer. Despite the wide acceptance of liver surgery and ablative techniques, there are many open questions on the management of limited metastatic disease, such as which patients benefit from an aggressive surgical approach, what the indications for ablative and other local techniques are, and what the role of chemotherapy is for patients with resectable or resected disease. Unfortunately, results of randomized trials are only available for a limited number of these questions.

Abstract
Advances in surgery and chemotherapy regimens have increased the long-term survival of patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Although liver resection remains an essential part of any curative strategy for resectable CRLM, chemotherapy regimens have also improved the long-term outcomes. However, the optimal timing for chemotherapy regimens remains unclear. Thus, this review addressed key points to aid the decision-making process regarding the timing of chemotherapy and surgery for patients with resectable CRLM. J. Surg.

[PMID: 27593596 PMCID: PMC5011081 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2016.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2016] [Revised: 06/01/2016] [Accepted: 06/08/2016] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to evaluate whether a parenchymal-sparing strategy provides similar results in terms of morbidity, mortality, and oncological outcome of non-PSH hepatectomies in a propensity score matched population (PSMP) in case of multiple (>3) bilobar colorectal liver metastases (CLM). BACKGROUND The surgical treatment of bilobar liver metastasis is challenging due to the necessity to achieve complete resection margins and a sufficient future remnant liver. Two approaches are adaptable as follows: parenchymal-sparing hepatectomies (PSH) and extended hepatectomies (NON-PSH). METHODS A total of 3036 hepatectomies were analyzed from a multicentric retrospective cohort of hepatectomies. Patients were matched in a 1:1 propensity score analysis in order to compare PSH versus NON-PSH resections. RESULTS PSH was associated with a lower number of complications (≥1) (25% vs. 34%, p = 0.04) and a lower grade of Dindo-Clavien III and IV (10 vs. 16%, p = 0.03). Liver failure was less present in PSH (2 vs. 7%, p = 0.006), with a shorter ICU stay (0 day vs. 1 day, p = 0.004). No differences were demonstrated in overall and disease-free survival. CONCLUSION In conclusion, PSH resection for bilobar multiple CLMs represents a valid alternative to NON-PSH resection in selected patients with a reduced morbidity and comparable oncological results.

Parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy for deep-placed colorectal liver metastases. Surgery 2016; 160:1256-1263. [PMID: 27521044 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2016.06.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2016] [Revised: 06/27/2016] [Accepted: 06/27/2016] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The feasibility of parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy has yet to be assessed based on the tumor location, which affects the choice of treatment in patients with colorectal liver metastases. METHODS Sixty-three patients underwent first curative hepatectomy for deep-placed colorectal liver metastases whose center was located >30 mm from the liver surface. Operative outcomes were compared among patients who underwent parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy or major hepatectomy (≥3 segments). RESULTS Parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy and major hepatectomy were performed for deep-placed colorectal liver metastases in 40 (63%) and 23 (37%) patients, respectively. Resection time was longer in the parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy than in the major hepatectomy group (57 vs 39 minutes) (P = .02) and cut-surface area was wider (120 vs 86 cm2) (P < .01). Resected volume was smaller in the parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy than in the major hepatectomy group (251 vs 560 g) (P < .01). No differences were found between the 2 groups for total operation time (306 vs 328 minutes), amount of blood loss (516 vs 400 mL), rate of major complications (10% vs 13%), and positive operative margins (5% vs 4%). Overall, recurrence-free, and liver recurrence-free survivals did not differ between the 2 groups. Direct major hepatectomy without portal venous embolization could not have been performed in 40% of the parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy group (16/40) because of the small liver remnant volume. CONCLUSION Parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy for deep-placed colorectal liver metastases was performed safely without compromising oncologic radicality. Parenchymal-sparing hepatectomy can increase the number of patients eligible for an operation by halving the resection volume and by increasing the chance of direct operative treatment in patients with ill-located colorectal liver metastases.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in Western countries. Over the last 20 years, and the last decade in particular, the clinical outcome for patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC) has improved greatly due not only to an increase in the number of patients being referred for and undergoing surgical resection of their localised metastatic disease but also to a more strategic approach to the delivery of systemic therapy and an expansion in the use of ablative techniques. This reflects the increase in the number of patients that are being managed within a multidisciplinary team environment and specialist cancer centres, and the emergence over the same time period not only of improved imaging techniques but also prognostic and predictive molecular markers. Treatment decisions for patients with mCRC must be evidence-based. Thus, these ESMO consensus guidelines have been developed based on the current available evidence to provide a series of evidence-based recommendations to assist in the treatment and management of patients with mCRC in this rapidly evolving treatment setting.

Eradication of Missing Liver Metastases After Fiducial Placement. J Gastrointest Surg 2016; 20:1173-8. [PMID: 26791387 DOI: 10.1007/s11605-016-3079-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2015] [Accepted: 01/11/2016] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) disappearing on cross-sectional imaging has increased with advances in preoperative chemotherapy, but <50 % of disappearing CLM demonstrate complete pathological response. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of fiducial marker placement before potentially curative treatment of CLM at risk of disappearing with chemotherapy. METHODS All consecutive patients who underwent fiducial placement for tracking of CLM at a tertiary center were reviewed. RESULTS Among 1377 patients undergoing CLM resection between 2005 and 2015, 35 patients underwent fiducial placement. Three patients were excluded due to disease progression. The study population comprised 32 patients who underwent fiducial placement in 41 CLM. Among the 41 marked CLM, 34 (83 %) were located >10 mm deep in the liver parenchyma, 25 (61 %) were in the right liver, and median size was 12 mm (range, 6-20 mm). No complication occurred after fiducial placement. After chemotherapy, 19 (46 %) of the 41 marked metastases disappeared on cross-sectional imaging. All fiducial-tracked CLM were treated with resection (n = 31) or ablation (n = 10). After median follow-up of 14 months (range, 0-64 months), no local recurrences were observed. CONCLUSION Fiducial placement represents a safe procedure that facilitates accurate localization for resection or ablation of small CLM at risk of disappearing with chemotherapy.

Present and future role of surgery in metastatic gastrointestinal malignancies. Curr Opin Oncol 2016; 28:348-52.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Metastases from gastrointestinal malignancies are systemic or abdominal disseminations of cancer cells. From a biological perspective surgical resections are questionable but case series show that for some tumour types, surgery influences survival outcome. This review focuses on management and indications for surgery in recent literature of these metastatic gastrointestinal malignancies. RECENT FINDINGS A few gastrointestinal malignancies have emerged to be candidates for surgery in case of metastatic disease. Surgery can be considered in selected cases with liver metastases or abdominal dissemination of colorectal cancer, metastases from gastrointestinal stromal tumours or neuroendocrine tumours. On the contrary, recent publications do not support surgery for metastatic disease of any other gastrointestinal origin. The literature has ample examples of small series and anecdotal cases of successful surgical interventions for most tumour types but no new evidence has been presented to support broader indications for surgery. SUMMARY The evidence base for surgery of different metastatic gastrointestinal malignancies is unchanged. There are some clarifications when to perform surgery and the timing of surgery in regard to combined treatments. No new tumour types are added to potential candidates for surgery.
