Abstract
The reported incidence of synchronous and metachronous ovarian metastases (OM) from colorectal cancer (CRC) is ~3.4%. OM from CRC are often considered sanctuary sites due to their lower sensitivity to systemic treatment. It has thus been hypothesized that the presence of OM decreases overall survival. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to evaluate the impact of synchronous OM on overall survival in female patients with stage IV CRC treated with systemic therapy alone with palliative intent. The present study used data from the Netherlands Cancer Registry and included female CRC patients with synchronous systemic metastases who were treated with systemic therapy between 2008 and 2018. A subsample was created using propensity score matching to create comparable groups. Propensity scores were determined using a logistic regression model in which the dependent variable was the presence of OM and the independent variables were the variables that differed significantly between both groups. Our study included 5253 patients with stage IV CRC that received systemic therapy. Among these patients, 161 (3%) had OM while 5092 (97%) had extra-ovarian metastases only. Three-year overall survival rates did not show a significant difference between patients with OM compared to patients without ovarian metastases. Moreover, the propensity score-matched analysis showed that the presence of OM in patients treated with systemic therapy for stage IV CRC disease was not associated with decreased 3-year overall survival. However, the results of the present study should be interpreted with caution, due to its observational character and used selection criteria.

Abstract
Although progress has been made in the early diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and in the systemic therapy of patients with CRC, the prognosis for advanced CRC remains poor. Our previous study demonstrated that ARHGAP25 overexpression significantly inhibits CRC cell growth, invasion and migration. However, it was not possible to evaluate and analyze the overall survival (OS) rate of patients with CRC. Thus, the discovery of relevant factors and their expression on the basis of existing research is necessary to predict the OS rate of patients with advanced CRC. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to define the value of Rho GTPase-activating protein 25 (ARHGAP25) expression in predicting the OS rate in patients with CRC. The clinical data of 153 patients with CRC who underwent colorectal resection were retrospectively analyzed. In order to explore the expression of ARHGAP25, immunohistochemical analysis of the tumor tissues of these patients, was performed. Univariate Cox regression analysis was used to assess the prognostic value of ARHGAP25 expression for OS. Multivariate analysis was used to evaluate the effect of ARHGAP25 expression in the presence of other variables. Confounding factors and interaction were assessed by a stratified analysis using ARHGAP25 expression and other variables associated with survival. The univariate analysis revealed that, ARHGAP25 expression was associated with an improved OS in patients with CRC (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis revealed that ARHGAP25 expression was still correlated with an improved OS after adjusting for sex, age, invasion degree, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, TNM stage, tumor location, histological type, histological grade, tumor deposits, and postoperative treatment (P<0.05). The stratified analysis demonstrated that the predictive value of ARHGAP25 for the OS of patients with CRC was stronger in males, elderly patients (>70 years old), patients with T3 stage tumor, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage III, right hemicolon location and patients with a poorly differentiated tumor (P<0.05). Overall, our results demonstrated that ARHGAP25 may have an important potential value for improving the prognosis of patients with CRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic metastases are a major cause of death in patients with colorectal cancer. A comprehensive assessment of the prognostic factors associated with long-term survival could improve patient selection for surgical approaches and decrease morbidity and futile locoregional treatments. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases at a single center from 2000 to 2012. RESULTS To identify factors associated with 5- and 10-year overall (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), we analyzed 280 patients and 150 patients in the 5- and 10-year cohorts, respectively. Only seven relapses occurred after 5 years of follow-up, and no relapses occurred after 10 years. Multivariable analysis indicated that bilobar disease and extra-hepatic disease before hepatectomy were independent 5- and 10-year predictors of OS, and major postoperative complications predicted OS in the 5-year survival cohort only. Our analysis indicated that prognostic factors associated with DFS included some confounders and was therefore inconclusive. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our results suggest that the predictors of 5- and 10-year OS rates of colorectal cancer patients with hepatic metastases are similar, differing only by postoperative complications that influenced exclusively 5-year survival. Since no relapse occurred 10 years after hepatic resection, oncological remission is likely.

Abstract
Background Although hepatectomy is the standard and only curative treatment for colorectal liver metastases, recurrence occurs in various organs, including the remnant liver, lung, peritoneum, and others. The outcomes and predictive factors of repeat metastasectomy for recurrence after initial hepatectomy remains controversial. Methods We retrospectively assessed a consecutive series of 132 patients who underwent hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases in a single institute. Results There were 99 recurrence cases after initial hepatectomy, and 42 patients underwent metastasectomy (first repeat metastasectomy) to achieve R0 (17 liver cases, 16 lung cases, and 9 multiple or other cases), while 19 patients underwent subsequent second repeat metastasectomy (4 liver cases, 7 lung cases, and 8 multiple or other cases). Among the 99 recurrent cases after initial hepatectomy, the 5-year overall survival rate of the patients who underwent first repeat metastasectomy was significantly higher than that of chemotherapy/BSC (best supportive care) patients (60% vs. 14%, P < 0.0001). Furthermore, among the 26 recurrent cases after first repeat metastasectomy, the 5-year overall survival rate of the patients who underwent second repeat metastasectomy was significantly higher than that of chemotherapy/BSC patients (P = 0.024). A multivariate analysis revealed that lack of adjuvant chemotherapy, a short (<12 months) disease-free interval, and right-side colon primary were the independent poor prognostic factors for the overall survival after first repeat metastasectomy. Conclusion The current study indicated that repeat metastasectomy for recurrence after initial hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases could achieve a longer survival time, especially for patients with favorable predictive factors. Forty-two patients underwent repeat metastasectomy for recurrence after hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases. Five-year survival rate of the repeat metastasectomy group was significantly higher than that of chemotherapy group. A short disease-free interval was the independent poor prognostic factors for survival after repeat metastasectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In contrast with sporadic colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-related CRLM have not been studied to date. METHODS Patients who underwent resection for IBD-related and sporadic CRLM from 2000 to 2015 were identified from an international registry and matched for pertinent prognostic variables. Overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were subsequently assessed. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients had IBD-related CRLM. Synchronous extrahepatic disease was more common in IBD-related CRLM patients than patients with sporadic CRLM (28.6% vs 8.3%; P < 0.001), most commonly located in the lungs. In multivariable analysis, IBD did not have a significant influence on OS ( P = 0.835), and had a hazard ratio (HR) close to 1 (HR, 0.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.57-1.57). IBD was also not associated with inferior RFS (HR, 1.07; 95%CI, 0.68-1.68; P = 0.780). Among patients with IBD-related CRLM, 9(50%) had isolated intrahepatic recurrence and 8(44.4%) isolated extrahepatic recurrence, while only 1(5.6%) developed combined recurrence. Of those who experienced recurrence after resection of IBD-related CRLM, 10 had their recurrence treated with curative intent. CONCLUSIONS Patients with IBD-related CRLM had similar survival compared with patients with sporadic CRLM, even though they more often present with extrahepatic disease. In addition, patients with IBD-related CRLM may experience patterns of recurrence different from patients with sporadic CRLM.
