Abstract
BACKGROUND In the era of innovating minimal invasive surgery, laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy (RLPS) is considered a technically challenging procedure for its deeply anatomic location.1,2 Performed by experienced surgeons, it has been shown to be a safe and feasible procedure.3-6 The purpose of this video was to show the technique of a RLPS. METHODS This is the case of a 70-year-old man who was treated for a mid-rectum adenocarcinoma with two synchronous liver metastases located in the posterior sector of the right liver. Tumor board decision was chemoradiotherapy followed by a simultaneous rectal and hepatic surgery. RESULTS An extrahepatic Glissonian approach of the right posterior pedicle was performed. After selective clamping of the right posterior pedicle and injection of indocyanine green, the right portal fissure between the two sectors of the right liver appeared. The parenchymal transection performed in a caudal approach, along a perfectly marked plane. One metastasis was in contact with the right hepatic vein. Because R1 vascular surgery has demonstrated similar oncological outcomes to R0 resection, we detached the metastasis from the vein to preserve a good venous drainage of the remaining right liver.7 The procedure was completed with a laparoscopic anterior resection of the rectum. The duration of the liver resection was 200 min, and blood loss was 300 ml. Postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative Day 10. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy is a safe and feasible procedure.3-6 However, it is technically challenging and requires advanced experience in liver and laparoscopic surgery.5,6.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to investigate the value of delayed 18F fluorodeoxyglucose PET/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) images in patients with small colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLMs) with hypothyroidism. METHOD We performed a retrospective analysis of 66 small-CRLM patients with hypothyroidism and 66 small-CRLM patients with euthyroidism, all of whom underwent dual-time-point 18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging. First, the diagnostic accuracy of PET/CT early imaging and PET/CT delayed imaging on lesions was analyzed. Next, the correlation of metabolic parameters between PET/CT early imaging and PET/CT delayed imaging was analyzed according to the grouping of all lesions. Finally, PET/CT parameters were analyzed for correlation with thyroid hormones. RESULTS The diagnostic accuracy of delayed imaging in small-CRLM patients with hypothyroidism is not as good as that in small-CRLM patients with euthyroidism; PET/CT metabolic parameters are also unfavorable for the diagnosis of small-CRLM. For small-CRLM patients with hypothyroidism, the greater the thyroid-stimulating hormone level, the greater the uptake of 18 F-FDG in normal liver tissue, and the smaller the ratio of tumor lesion uptake to normal liver tissue uptake. CONCLUSION PET/CT-delayed imaging has better performance than early imaging in small-CRLM patients with euthyroidism. However, the more severe the hypothyroidism, the worse the diagnostic delayed imaging performance. The scan time can be extended appropriately to optimize the imaging efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive caudate lobectomy, or even paracaval caudate resection, can be associated with significant bleeding due to its abutment of inferior vena cava (IVC), portal pedicle and hepatic veins.1-3 This risk can be magnified by cirrhosis as well as response to neoadjuvant therapy (a common phenomenon after excellent response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy), leading to obliteration or even fusion of the hepato-caval space.4-7 PATIENT: A 68-year-old female with stage IVa colorectal adenocarcinoma was found to have a single liver metastasis (3.8 × 3.1 cm) in the paracaval caudate lobe. The patient received four cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, leading to inflammatory fusion of the hepato-caval space. Despite this, the patient underwent a safe laparoscopic Spiegel process resection. TECHNIQUE Prior to surgery, three-dimensional liver and port site modeling was performed to optimize the understanding of the spatial relationship between the tumor, IVC, and portal-hepatic veins. Following inflow control of portal veinous branches, the fused hepato-caval space was dissected. The adhesions were then sharply dissected to mobilize the paracaval caudate lobe off the IVC. Using scissors rather than an energy device reduced the risk of inadvertent thermal injury to the IVC. CONCLUSION Preoperative virtual hepatectomy facilitates surgical planning, increasing the understanding of the tumor/vessel relationship and port placement. In case of a fused hepato-caval space, low central venous pressure and judicious management of short hepatic vein branches are the key for a successful dissection. Moreover, anticipation of a fused hepato-caval space and its strategic management are paramount when performing a minimally invasive caudate resection.

Abstract
Metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) is still in need of effective treatments. This study applies a holistic approach to propose new targets for treatment of primary and liver metastatic CRC and investigates their therapeutic potential in-vitro. An integrative analysis of primary and metastatic CRC samples was implemented for alternative target and treatment proposals. Integrated microarray samples were grouped based on a co-expression network analysis. Significant gene modules correlated with primary CRC and metastatic phenotypes were identified. Network clustering and pathway enrichments were applied to gene modules to prioritize potential targets, which were shortlisted by independent validation. Finally, drug-target interaction search led to three agents for primary and liver metastatic CRC phenotypes. Hesperadin and BAY-1217389 suppress colony formation over a 14-day period, with Hesperadin showing additional efficacy in reducing cell viability within 48 h. As both candidates target the G2/M phase proteins NEK2 or TTK, we confirmed their anti-proliferative properties by Ki-67 staining. Hesperadinin particular arrested the cell cycle at the G2/M phase. IL-29A treatment reduced migration and invasion capacities of TGF-β induced metastatic cell lines. In addition, this anti-metastatic treatment attenuated TGF-β dependent mesenchymal transition. Network analysis suggests IL-29A induces the JAK/STAT pathway in a preventive manner.

Abstract
Liver metastasis is the leading cause of mortality in patients with colorectal cancer. Given the significance of both epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of tumor cells and the immune microenvironment in colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM), the interplay between them could hold the key for developing improved treatment options. We employed multiomics analysis of 130 samples from 18 patients with synchronous CRLM integrated with external datasets to comprehensively evaluate the interaction between immune cells and EMT of tumor cells in liver metastasis. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis revealed distinct distributions of nonmalignant cells between primary tumors from patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and non-metastatic colorectal cancer, showing that Th17 cells were predominantly enriched in the primary lesion of mCRC. TWEAK, a cytokine secreted by Th17 cells, promoted EMT by binding to receptor Fn14 on tumor cells, and the TWEAK-Fn14 interaction enhanced tumor migration and invasion. In mouse models, targeting Fn14 using CRISPR-induced knockout or lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated siRNA alleviated metastasis and prolonged survival. Mice lacking Il17a or Tnfsf12 (encoding TWEAK) exhibited fewer metastases compared with wild-type mice, while cotransfer of Th17 with tumor cells promoted liver metastasis. Higher TWEAK expression was associated with a worse prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer. In addition, CD163L1+ macrophages interacted with Th17 cells, recruiting Th17 via the CCL4-CCR5 axis. Collectively, this study unveils the role of immune cells in the EMT process and identifies TWEAK secreted by Th17 as a driver of CRLM. SIGNIFICANCE TWEAK secreted by Th17 cells promotes EMT by binding to Fn14 on colorectal cancer cells, suggesting that blocking the TWEAK-Fn14 interaction may be a promising therapeutic approach to inhibit liver metastasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the prognostic accuracy of intraprocedural and 4-8-week (current standard) post-microwave ablation zone (AZ) and margin assessments for prediction of local tumor progression (LTP) using 3-dimensional (3D) software. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data regarding 100 colorectal liver metastases (CLMs) in 75 patients were collected from 2 prospective fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT)-guided microwave ablation (MWA) trials. The target CLMs and theoretical 5- and 10-mm margins were segmented and registered intraprocedurally and at 4-8 weeks after MWA contrast-enhanced CT (or magnetic resonance [MR] imaging) using the same methodology and 3D software. Tumor and 5- and 10-mm minimal margin (MM) volumes not covered by the AZ were defined as volumes of insufficient coverage (VICs). The intraprocedural and 4-8-week post-MWA VICs were compared as predictors of LTP using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 19.6 months (interquartile range, 7.97-36.5 months). VICs for 5- and 10-mm MMs were predictive of LTP at both time assessments. The highest accuracy for the prediction of LTP was documented with the intra-ablation 5-mm VIC (area under the curve [AUC], 0.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.66-0.89). LTP for a VIC of 6-10-mm margin category was 11.4% compared with 4.3% for >10-mm margin category (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS A 3D 5-mm MM is a critical endpoint of thermal ablation, whereas optimal local tumor control is noted with a 10-mm MM. Higher AUCs for prediction of LTP were achieved for intraprocedural evaluation than for the 4-8-week postablation 3D evaluation of the AZ.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There is a lack of sufficient evidence regarding the use of extended shelf-life (ExSL) Yttrium-90 ( 90 Y) glass radiomicrospheres in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of ExSL 90 Y glass radiomicrospheres with a personalized treatment approach by analyzing 18 F-FDG PET/CT quantitative parameters [metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG)] separately before and after the treatment. METHODS A total of 93 radioembolization sessions involving 77 patients were included. Simplicit 90 Y software was utilized to perform multicompartmental voxel-based dosimetry. Adverse events were recorded using the CTCAE v5.0 criteria. The survival data were recorded in detail. RESULTS The overall disease control rate was 84.9%, with a median overall survival (OS) of 12.7 months and median progression-free survival (PFS) of 8.3 months. A statistically significant increase in treatment response rate was observed when there was an increase in absorbed tumor dose for pre-treatment unit MTV ( P = 0.005) and TLG ( P = 0.004) values. We didn't observe any additional side effects/vital risks that could be considered clinically significant. CONCLUSION Our study has provided evidence on the therapeutic effectiveness and safety in terms of dose-toxicity profile of ExSL 90 Y glass microspheres in a large cohort of mCRC patients. With a personalized treatment approach, the increase in radiation dose absorbed by the tumor has shown a significant contribution to treatment response rate, as indicated by quantitative measurements obtained through 18 F-FDG PET/CT.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, with nearly half of the affected patients developing liver metastases. For three decades, liver resection (LR) has been the primary curative strategy, yet its applicability is limited to about 20% of cases. Liver transplantation (LT) for unresectable metastases was attempted unsuccessfully in the 1990s, with high rates of perioperative death and recurrence. There is now more interest in this strategy due to improvements in systemic therapies and surgical techniques. A significant study conducted by the Oslo group showed that patients receiving liver transplants had a 60% chance of survival after five years. Significantly better results have been achieved by using advanced imaging for risk stratification and further refining selection criteria, especially in the Norvegian SECA trials. This review carefully charts the development and history of LT as a treatment option for colorectal cancer liver metastases. The revolutionary path from the early days of exploratory surgery to the current situation of cautious optimism is traced, highlighting the critical clinical developments and improved patient selection standards that have made LT a potentially curative treatment for such challenging very well selected cases.

Abstract
Intrabiliary growth (IG) is an unusual modality for colorectal metastases to spread. Relatively little is known about this condition because large series are lacking. The aim of the study was to compare the surgical and oncological outcomes of patients with or without IG. From 01/2010 to 12/2020, 999 patients underwent hepatectomy for colorectal metastases. Clinicopathological variables were retrospectively analyzed from a prospective-collected database of patients with or without IG. A propensity score matched (PSM) analysis to compare OS and DFS was performed. At first hepatectomy, 29 patients (2.9%) had IG: 7 isolated IG and 22 mixed-type (mass-forming lesion with IG). 4 patients presented IG at repeat hepatectomy for recurrence, of whom 3 had no biliary invasion at initial surgery. IG resulted to be more common in older patients (median age 70 in IG vs 60 years of no-IG, p = 0.004). Mean time from colorectal tumor was longer in IG (20.4 months) than no-IG (12.9 months), p = 0.038. Major hepatectomies (55.2% IG vs 29.7% no-IG, p = 0.003) and anatomic resections (89.7% vs 58.2%, p = 0.001) were more frequently required to treat IG. In 5 (17%) of IG, a resection of main bile duct was performed. Overall postoperative mortality and complications were similar in the two groups, while bile leak was 17.2% IG vs 5.6% no-IG (p = 0.024). Median margin width was comparable in IG (1.4 mm) and no-IG (2 mm). Five-year overall survival (IG 45.9% vs no-IG 44.5%) and Disease-Free Survival (IG 35.9% vs no-IG 36.6%) were similar in the two groups. According to PSM, 145 patients with no-IG were compared to 29 of IG group. After PSM, OS and DFS did not show any statistically significant difference. IG has similar oncological outcomes of resected colorectal metastases without IG, although it affects surgical management.

Abstract
The liver is the most frequent and often the only site of distant disease in colorectal cancer and, of all treatment protocols currently in use, resection is the most likely to result in long-term cure. Within the liver, tumour proximity to major vasculature and biliary structures poses a resection challenge, requiring a balance of achieving negative margins while preserving adequate vascular circulation and biliary drainage. The focus on parenchymal sparing resections are important but just as important may be the 'biological' behaviour of the tumour. In colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), biomarkers such as the Kirsten rat sarcoma oncogene homologue (KRAS) gene and histological growth patterns (HGPs) further improve the prognostication after resection. However, to date, the association between the KRAS status and HGPs in CRLM and their impact on resection margins around major vasculature or biliary structures in terms of overall survival and recurrence rates are unclear. The aim of this review was to explore the available evidence for the association between KRAS and HGPs in CRLM and attempt to define their impact on resection margins near major structures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The clinical role of lymphadenectomy (LAD) as part of hepatic resection for malignancies of the liver remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to report on the use cases and postoperative outcomes of liver resection and simultaneous LAD for hepatic malignancies (HM). MATERIALS AND METHODS Clinicopathological data from patients who underwent surgery at 13 German centers from 2017 to 2022 (n = 3456) was extracted from the StuDoQ|Liver registry of the German Society of General and Visceral Surgery. Propensity-score matching (PSM) was performed to account for the extent of liver resection and patient demographics. RESULTS LAD was performed in 545 (16%) cases. The most common indication for LAD was cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), followed by colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). N+ status was found in 7 (8%), 59 (35%), and 56 cases (35%) for HCC, CCA, and CRLM, respectively (p < 0.001). The LAD rate was highest for robotic-assisted resections (28%) followed by open (26%) and laparoscopic resections (13%), whereas the number of resected lymph nodes was equivalent between the techniques (p = 0.303). LAD was associated with an increased risk of liver-specific postoperative complications, especially for patients with HCC. CONCLUSION In this multicenter registry study, LAD was found to be associated with an increased risk of liver-specific complications. The highest rate of LAD was observed among robotic liver resections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to explore the effect of different organ metastasis on the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Patients with distant metastatic NSCLC were selected from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database during 2016 to 2019. The incidence of different organ metastasis and their association with clinicopathological factors were explored. Overall survival (OS) and lung cancer-specific survival (LCSS) for metastatic NSCLC were calculated, and multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed with a nomogram for OS being constructed based on Cox regression. RESULTS Total 26,210 patients with distant metastatic NSCLC were included in this study. Around 48.9% of the metastatic NSCLC were multiple-organ metastasis and bone was the most commonly involved organ (44.4%). For patients with single-organ metastasis, the prognosis for lung or distant lymph nodes (LNs) metastasis was better than others (with median OS of 15 and 16 months for lung and distant LNs metastasis, respectively), and liver metastasis resulted in the worst prognosis with median OS of 8 months. A nomogram was constructed to visualize Cox regression model, along with the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve demonstrated good discrimination for the predictive model with 1- and 2-year area under the curve of ROC of 0.687 and 0.702, respectively. CONCLUSION The prognosis of NSCLC patients with distant metastasis was poor. Liver metastasis results in the worst prognosis among the single-organ metastasis. The nomogram developed based on the Cox regression model has provided a useful tool to estimate the probability of OS of the metastatic NSCLC.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate the practice and the associated outcomes of surgical treatment for young-onset colorectal cancer (YOCRC) patients presenting with synchronous liver metastases. The study cohort was divided into two groups according to surgery date: 131 patients in the early era (EE, 1998-2011) and 179 in the contemporary era (CE, 2012-2020). The CE had a higher rate of node-positive primary tumors, higher carcinoembryonic antigen level, and lower rate of RAS/BRAF mutations. The CE had higher rates of reverse or combined resection, multi-drug prehepatectomy chemotherapy, and two-stage hepatectomy. The median survival was 8.4 years in the CE and 4.3 years in the EE (p = 0.011). On multivariate analysis, hepatectomy in the CE was independently associated with improved overall survival (HR 0.48, p = 0.001). With a combination of perioperative systemic therapy, careful selection of treatment approach, and coordinated resections, durable cure can be achieved in YOCRC patients.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most aggressive malignancies, and the prognosis for its recurrence after surgery is very poor. Here, we report a case of metachronous oligo-hepatic and peritoneal metastases in a patient who survived without recurrence for 3 years after conversion surgery combined with perioperative sequential chemotherapy using gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (GnP) and modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX). The patient was a 70-year-old man with pancreatic ductal carcinoma, classified as cT3N0M0, cStage IIA, who underwent a distal pancreatosplenectomy. At 1 year and 4 months later, two liver metastases and one peritoneal metastasis were detected. A systemic 9-month course of chemotherapy was administered with GnP and mFOLFIRINOX as the first- and second-line chemotherapeutic agents, respectively. The two liver metastases were judged as showing a partial response, but one dissemination was considered stable disease. After receiving informed consent from the patient, we performed resection of the disseminated tumor and lateral segmentectomy of the liver. Adjuvant chemotherapy using mFOLFIRINOX and GnP was administered for 10 months. The patient has now been alive for 5 years and 6 months after the initial pancreatosplenectomy, and 3 years and 3 months after the conversion surgery, without subsequent tumor recurrence. Thus, a multidisciplinary treatment approach including surgery and perioperative sequential chemotherapy using GnP and mFOLFIRINOX may be beneficial for treating metachronous oligo-hepatic and peritoneal metastases, depending on the patient's condition.

Abstract
Chemotherapy alters the prognostic biomarker histopathological growth pattern (HGP) phenotype in colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) patients. We aimed to develop a CT-based radiomics model to predict the transformation of the HGP phenotype after chemotherapy. This study included 181 patients with 298 CRLMs who underwent preoperative contrast-enhanced CT followed by partial hepatectomy between January 2007 and July 2022 at two institutions. HGPs were categorized as pure desmoplastic HGP (pdHGP) or non-pdHGP. The samples were allocated to training, internal validation, and external validation cohorts comprising 153, 65, and 29 CRLMs, respectively. Radiomics analysis was performed on pre-enhanced, arterial phase, portal venous phase (PVP), and fused images. The model was used to predict prechemotherapy HGPs in 112 CRLMs, and HGP transformation was analysed by comparing these findings with postchemotherapy HGPs determined pathologically. The prevalence of pdHGP was 19.8% (23/116) and 45.8% (70/153) in chemonaïve and postchemotherapy patients, respectively (P < 0.001). The PVP radiomics signature showed good performance in distinguishing pdHGP from non-pdHGPs (AUCs of 0.906, 0.877, and 0.805 in the training, internal validation, and external validation cohorts, respectively). The prevalence of prechemotherapy pdHGP predicted by the radiomics model was 33.0% (37/112), and the prevalence of postchemotherapy pdHGP according to the pathological analysis was 47.3% (53/112; P = 0.029). The transformation of HGP was bidirectional, with 15.2% (17/112) of CRLMs transforming from prechemotherapy pdHGP to postchemotherapy non-pdHGP and 30.4% (34/112) transforming from prechemotherapy non-pdHGP to postchemotherapy pdHGP (P = 0.005). CT-based radiomics method can be used to effectively predict the HGP transformation in chemotherapy-treated CRLM patients, thereby providing a basis for treatment decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selection of colorectal cancer patients with concomitant peritoneal (PM) and liver metastases (LM) for radical treatment with cytoreductive surgery (CRS), including liver resection and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), needs improvement. This retrospective, monocentric study was designed to evaluate the predictive factors for early recurrence, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) in such patients treated in a referral center. METHODS Consecutive colorectal cancer patients with concomitant LM and PM treated with curative intent with perioperative systemic chemotherapy, simultaneous complete CRS, liver resection, and HIPEC in 2011-2022 were included. Clinical, radiological (before and after preoperative chemotherapy), surgical, and pathological data were investigated, along with long-term oncologic outcomes. A multivariate analysis was performed to identify predictive factors associated with early recurrence (diagnosed <6 months after surgery), DFS, and OS. RESULTS Of more than 61 patients included, 31 (47.1%) had pT4 and 27 (40.9%) had pN2 primary tumors. Before preoperative chemotherapy, the median number of LM was 2 (1-4). The median surgical PCI (peritoneal carcinomatosis index) was 3 (5-8.5). The median DFS and OS were 8.15 (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.5-10.1) and 34.1 months (95% CI 28.1-53.5), respectively. In multivariate analysis, pT4 (odds ratio [OR] = 4.14 [1.2-16.78], p = 0.032]) and pN2 (OR = 3.7 [1.08-13.86], p = 0.042) status were independently associated with an early recurrence, whereas retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis (hazard ratio [HR] = 39 [8.67-175.44], p < 0.001) was independently associated with poor OS. CONCLUSIONS In colorectal cancer patients with concomitant PM and LM, an advanced primary tumor (pT4 and/or pN2) was associated with a higher risk of early recurrence following a radical multimodal treatment, whereas RLN metastases was strongly detrimental for OS.

Abstract
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) safely and effectively controls liver metastases (LMs), but its safety and efficacy when combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are not well characterized. This analysis of 3 phase 1 trials of combination SBRT and ICI evaluates whether LM-SBRT increases the risk for hepatotoxicity when combined with ICI and explores efficacy endpoints. METHODS AND MATERIALS Data were analyzed from 3 phase 1 trials of combination SBRT and ICI for patients with metastatic solid tumors conducted between 2016 and 2020. ICI was administered per trial protocol with LM-SBRT delivered to 45 Gy in 3 fractions with mean liver dose <16 Gy and ≥700 cc of normal liver spared 17.1 Gy. Hepatic adverse events (HAEs) were defined as hepatic failure, autoimmune hepatitis, or elevation of aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, bilirubin, or alkaline phosphatase using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0. Cumulative incidence of HAEs and local failure were modeled with death as a competing risk. Competing risk regression was performed using Fine-Gray modeling. Survival was estimated via the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Two hundred patients were analyzed, including 81 patients with LM, 57 of whom received LM-SBRT. The 12-month rate of any grade ≥2 HAE was 11% and 10% in LM-SBRT and non-LM-SBRT patients, respectively non-significant (NS). Radiographic evidence for liver disease and dual-agent ICI was significantly associated with HAEs on univariable and multivariable analysis, but liver dose metrics were not. Patients with LM had significantly worse progression-free and overall survival compared with those without, and local failure of treated LM was significantly higher than for treated extrahepatic metastases (28% vs 4% at 12 months, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Combination LM-SBRT and ICI did not significantly increase the risk for HAEs compared with ICI without LM-SBRT, suggesting hepatotoxicity is largely driven by factors other than liver radiation therapy, such as choice of ICI. LM is associated with worse overall survival and local control outcomes.

Abstract
The management of patients with locally advanced mid/low rectal cancer with resectable liver metastases is complex because of the need to combine the optimal treatment of both tumors. This study aims to review the available treatment strategies and compare their outcome, focusing on radiotherapy (RT) and liver-first approach (LFA). A systematic review was performed in PubMed, Embase, and web sources including articles published between 2000 and 02/2023 and reporting mid-/long-term outcomes. Overall, twenty studies were included (n = 1837 patients). Three- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 51-88% and 36-59%. Although several strategies were reported, most patients received RT (1448/1837, 79%; > 85% neoadjuvant). RT reduced the pelvic recurrence risk (5.8 vs. 13.5%, P = 0.005) but did not impact OS. Six studies analyzed LFA (n = 307 patients). LFA had a completion rate similar to the rectum-first approach (RFA, 81% vs. 79%) but the interval strategy-an LFA variant with liver surgery in the interval between radiotherapy and rectal surgery-had a better completion rate than standard LFA (liver surgery/radiotherapy/rectal surgery, 92% vs. 75%, P = 0.011) and RFA (79%, P = 0.048). Across all series, LFA achieved the best survival rates, and in one paper it led to a survival advantage in patients with multiple metastases. In conclusion, different strategies can be adopted, but RT should be included to decrease the pelvic recurrence risk. LFA should be considered, especially in patients with high hepatic tumor burden, and RT before liver surgery (interval strategy) could maximize its completion rate.

Abstract
The annual postoperative disease-free survival for colorectal liver metastases can be easily estimated by weighting six preoperative clinical parameters (Beppu score). We identified three recurrence-risk stratification groups: the low (≤6 points), moderate (7-10 points), and high-risk (≥11 points). For low-, moderate-, and high-risk patients, hepatectomy alone, hepatectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy, and hepatectomy with preoperative chemotherapy are recommended, respectively. The Beppu score enables the decision on the necessity and timing of perioperative chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A large proportion of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) presents with synchronous colorectal liver metastases (sCRLM) at diagnosis. Surgical approaches for patients with sCRLM have evolved over the past decades. Simultaneous resection (SR) of CRC and sCRLM for selected patients has emerged as a safe and efficient alternative approach to traditional staged resections. METHODS A comprehensive review of the literature was performed using MEDLINE/PubMed and Web of Science databases with the end of search date October 30, 2023. The MeSH terms "simultaneous resections" and "combined resections" in combination with "colorectal liver metastases," "colorectal cancer," "liver resection," and "hepatectomy" were searched in the title and/or abstract. RESULTS SRs aim to achieve maximal tumor clearance, minimizing the risk of disease progression and optimizing the potential for long-term survival. Improvements in perioperative care, advances in surgical techniques, and a better understanding of patient selection criteria have collectively contributed to reducing morbidity and mortality associated with these complex procedures. Several studies have demonstrated that SR are associated with reduced overall length of stay and lower costs with comparable morbidity and long-term outcomes. In light of these outcomes, the proportion of patients undergoing SR for CRC and sCRLM has increased substantially over the past 2 decades. CONCLUSION For patients with sCRLM, SR represents an attractive alternative to the traditional staged approach and should be selectively used; however, the decision on whether to proceed with a simultaneous versus staged approach should be individualized based on several patient- and disease-related factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this study, we aimed to examine parameters of cryoablation, tumor characteristics, and their correlations with distant tumor response and survival of liver metastatic melanoma patients receiving cryoablation and PD-1 blockade (cryo-PD-1) combination treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study was conducted among 45 melanoma patients who received combined PD-1 blockade therapy and cryoablation for liver metastasis from 2018 to 2022. Cox regression was utilized to determine the associations between factors and overall survival (OS). Changes in cytokines and immune cell compositions in peripheral blood samples following the combined treatment were investigated, along with their correlations with treatment response. RESULTS The mean cycle of cryo-PD-1 combination treatment was 2.2 (range, 1-6), and the 3-month overall response rate (RECIST 1.1 criteria) was 26.7%. Of the 21 patients who failed previous PD-1 blockade therapy after diagnosis of liver metastasis, 4 (19.0%) achieved response within 3 months since combination treatment. The diameter of ablated lesion ≤ 30 mm, metastatic organs ≤ 2, and pre-treatment LDH level ≤ 300 U/L were independent prognostic factors for favorable OS. Further analysis showed patients with intrahepatic tumor size of 15-45 mm, and ablated lesion size of ≤ 30 mm had significantly higher 3-month response rate (42.9% vs 12.5%; P = 0.022) and survival time (30.5 vs 14.2 months; P = 0.045) than their counterparts. The average increase in NLR among patients with ablated tumor size of ≤ 3 cm and > 3 cm were 3.59 ± 5.01 and 7.21 ± 12.57, respectively. The average increase in serum IL-6 levels among patients with ablated tumor size of ≤ 3 cm and > 3 cm were 8.62 ± 7.95 pg/ml and 15.40 ± 11.43 pg/ml, respectively. CONCLUSION Size selection of intrahepatic lesions for cryoablation is important in order to achieve abscopal effect and long-term survival among patients with liver metastatic melanoma receiving PD-1 blockade therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Textbook outcome (TO) represents a multidimensional quality measurement, encompassing the desirable short-term outcomes following surgery. This study aimed to investigate whether achieving TO after resection of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) surgery is related to better overall survival (OS) in a national cohort. METHOD Data was retrieved from the Dutch Hepato Biliary Audit. A modified definition of TO (mTO) was used because readmissions were only recorded from 2019. mTO was achieved when no severe postoperative complications, mortality, prolonged length of hospital stay, occurred and when adequate surgical resection margins were obtained. To compare outcomes of patients with and without mTO and reduce baseline differences between both groups propensity score matching (PSM) was used for patients operated on between 2014 and 2018. RESULTS Out of 6525 eligible patients, 81 % achieved mTO. For the cohort between 2014 and 2018, those achieving mTO had a 5-year OS of 46.7 % (CI 44.8-48.6) while non-mTO patients had a 5-year OS of 33.7 % (CI 29.8-38.2), p < 0.001. Not achieving mTO was associated with a worse OS (aHR 1.34 (95 % CI 1.17-1.53), p < 0.001. Median follow-up was 76 months., PSM assigned 519 patients to each group. In the PSM cohort patients achieving mTO, 5-year OS was 43.6 % (95 % CI 39.2-48.5) compared to 36.4 % (95 % CI 31.9-41.2) in patients who did not achieve mTO, p = 0.006. CONCLUSION Achieving mTO is associated with improved long-term survival. This emphasizes the importance of optimising perioperative care and reducing postoperative complications in surgical treatment of CRLM.

Abstract
There are controversial about the application of cancer-directed surgery (CDS) in patients with liver metastases from gastric cancer, with improved responses to chemotherapy and targeted treatments, the role of CDS in metastatic gastric cancer to the liver needs to be revisited. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of CDS on patients with liver metastases from gastric cancer. Data for patients with liver metastases from gastric cancer were extracted from the population-based Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. A total of 958 individuals were enrolled, 285 in the CDS group and 673 in the non-cancer guided surgery (Non-CDS) group. Following propensity score matching (PSM) analysis at 1:1 in the two groups,285 were included in the survival analysis for each group. Kaplan-Meier values and Cox proportional risk models were used to estimate the effect of CDS on patients' prognoses. Compared with the Non-CDS group, the CDS group significantly prolonged the median overall survival from 4 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3-5) to 11 months (95% CI 8-12), p value < 0.001. Overall survival (OS) at 1 year was higher in the CDS group than in the Non-CDS group, at 44% (95 CI 38-50) and 25% (95 CI 20-30), respectively. OS at 3 years was also higher in the CDS group than in the Non-CDS group, at 24% (95 CI 19-29) and 6% (95 CI 3-9), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that Non-CDS (hazard ratio[HR] = 2.26, 95% CI 1.88-2.72, p value < 0.001) was an adverse independent prognostic factor for patients. This study concludes that CDS prolonged survival in patients with gastric cancer with liver metastases. Due to the lack of information on the quality of life, biomarkers, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy in the SEER database, the observed improved survival rates following CDS of hepatic metastasis from gastric cancer requires prospective studies that take these factors into account to properly address the survival advantages and impact on quality of life of such a method.

Abstract
We aimed to analyze and investigate the clinical factors that influence the occurrence of liver metastasis in locally advanced rectal cancer patients, with an attempt to assist patients in devising the optimal imaging-based follow-up nursing. Between June 2011 and May 2021, patients with rectal cancer at our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. A random survival forest model was developed to predict the probability of liver metastasis and provide a practical risk-based approach to surveillance. The results indicated that age, perineural invasion, and tumor deposit were significant factors associated with the liver metastasis and survival. The liver metastasis risk of the low-risk group was higher at 6-21 months, with a peak occurrence time in the 15th month. The liver metastasis risk of the high-risk group was higher at 0-24 months, with a peak occurrence time in the 8th month. In general, our clinical model could predict liver metastasis in rectal cancer patients. It provides a visualization tool that can aid physicians and nurses in making clinical decisions, by detecting the probability of liver metastasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) using [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE has been shown to effectively prolong progression free survival in grade 1-2 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NET), but is less efficacious in patients with extensive liver metastases. The aim was to investigate whether tumour uptake in liver metastases can be enhanced by intra-arterial administration of [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE into the hepatic artery, in order to improve tumour response without increasing toxicity. METHODS Twenty-seven patients with grade 1-2 GEP-NET, and bi-lobar liver metastases were randomized to receive intra-arterial PRRT in the left or right liver lobe for four consecutive cycles. The contralateral liver lobe and extrahepatic disease were treated via a "second-pass" effect and the contralateral lobe was used as the control lobe. Up to three metastases (> 3 cm) per liver lobe were identified as target lesions at baseline on contrast-enhanced CT. The primary endpoint was the tumour-to-non-tumour (T/N) uptake ratio on the 24 h post-treatment [177Lu]Lu-SPECT/CT after the first cycle. This was calculated for each target lesion in both lobes using the mean uptake. T/N ratios in both lobes were compared using paired-samples t-test. FINDINGS After the first cycle, a non-significant difference in T/N uptake ratio was observed: T/NIA = 17·4 vs. T/Ncontrol = 16·2 (p = 0·299). The mean increase in T/N was 17% (1·17; 95% CI [1·00; 1·37]). Of all patients, 67% (18/27) showed any increase in T/N ratio after the first cycle. CONCLUSION Intra-arterial [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE is safe, but does not lead to a clinically significant increase in tumour uptake.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) occurs in upto 50% of cases and drives patient outcomes. Up-front liver resection is the treatment of choice in resectable cases. There is no consensus yet established as to the safety of intraoperative autotransfusion in liver resection for CRLM. METHODS Patients undergoing curative-intent hepatectomy for CRLM at a single quaternary-care institution from 1999 to 2016 were included. Demographics, surgical variables, Fong Clinical Risk Score (FCRS), use of intraoperative auto and/or allotransfusion, and survival data were analyzed. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed accounting for allotransfusion, extent of hepatectomy, FCRS, and systemic treatment regimens. RESULTS Three-hundred sixteen patients were included. The median follow-up was 10.4 years (7.8-14.1 years). The median recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in all patients were 1.6 years (interquartile range: 0.63-6.6 years) and 4.4 years (2.1-8.7), respectively. Before PSM, there was a significantly reduced RFS in the autotransfusion group (0.96 vs. 1.73 years, p = 0.20). There was no difference in OS (4.11 vs. 4.44 years, p = 0.118). Patients in groups of FCRS 0-2 and 3-5 both had reduced RFS when autotransfusion was used (p = 0.005). This reduction in RFS was further found when comparing autotransfusion versus no autotransfusion within the FCRS 0-2 group and within the FCRS 3-5 group (p = 0.027). On Cox-regression analysis, autotransfusion (hazard ratio = 1.423, 1.028-2.182, p = 0.015) remained predictive of RFS. After PSM, there were no differences in FCRS (p = 0.601), preoperative hemoglobin (p = 0.880), allotransfusion (p = 0.130), adjuvant chemotherapy (p = 1.000), immunotherapy (p = 0.172), tumor grade (p = 1.000), use of platinum-based chemotherapy (p = 0.548), or type of hepatic resection (p = 0.967). After matching, there was a higher rate of recurrence with autotransfusion (69.0% vs. 47.6%, p = 0.046). There was also a reduced time to recurrence in the autotransfusion group compared with the group without (p = 0.006). There was no difference in OS after PSM (p = 0.262). CONCLUSION Autotransfusion may adversely affect recurrence in liver resection for CRLM. Until further studies clarify this risk profile, the use of intraoperative autotransfusion should be critically assessed on a case-by-case basis only when other resuscitation options are not available.

Abstract
The liver is a common site for the development of metastases in colorectal cancer. Treatment selection for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is difficult; although hepatic resection will cure a minority of CRLM patients, recurrence is common. Reliable preoperative prediction of recurrence could therefore be a valuable tool for physicians in selecting the best candidates for hepatic resection in the treatment of CRLM. It has been hypothesized that evidence for recurrence could be found via quantitative image analysis on preoperative CT imaging of the future liver remnant before resection. To investigate this hypothesis, we have collected preoperative hepatic CT scans, clinicopathologic data, and recurrence/survival data, from a large, single-institution series of patients (n = 197) who underwent hepatic resection of CRLM. For each patient, we also created segmentations of the liver, vessels, tumors, and future liver remnant. The largest of its kind, this dataset is a resource that may aid in the development of quantitative imaging biomarkers and machine learning models for the prediction of post-resection hepatic recurrence of CRLM.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer exerts a very high level of liver metastases, even on primary diagnosis, with 80%-90% unresectable nodules. At the same time, the possibility of resection has a significant impact on survival: 5-year survival is 6%-10% without liver surgery and up to 30% upon resection of liver metastases. Finding ways to improve resectability is a topical search for doctors all over the world. One of the promising methods to convert unresectable liver metastases of colorectal cancer into resectable ones is a hepatic artery infusion, or intra-arterial chemotherapy allowing for the delivery of cytotoxic drugs directly to the common hepatic artery via catheter or pump with decreased systemic toxicity and increased local drug concentration. In this article, we discuss the literature data on the impact of intra-arterial chemotherapy on the resectability of colorectal metastases in the liver and present the results of the successful clinical case. The literature shows a positive impact of the hepatic artery infusion on the resectability of hepatic metastases of colorectal cancer. The National Cancer Institute (Ukraine) has its own experience in hepatic artery infusion with further resection of primary-unresectable colorectal metastases in the liver. In our clinical case, a patient with liver-limited metastasis of colorectal cancer was initially inoperable due to the size of tumor lesions and an insufficient residual volume of the liver. Hepatic artery infusion tactics was chosen for this patient. The patient received six cycles of intra-arterial chemotherapy, namely five FOLFOX cycles and one 5-FU cycle, and then met the resectability criteria. Also, it is important to notice that the case demonstrates chemoresistance overcoming, since the patient had disease progression before, following systemically administered XELOX, and the period until readmission of the drugs was less than 6 months. So, hepatic artery infusion can be considered a promising method to convert unresectable liver metastases of colorectal cancer into resectable ones for highly selected patients.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Approximately half of the patients diagnosed will develop colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Liver resection has a 50% 5-year survival; however, only a fourth of cases are resectable. Unresectable CRLM has poor prognosis despite improved systemic and local ablative treatments. Liver transplantation (LT) has demonstrated a survival benefit in initial prospective clinical trials. Current use of LT for CRLM is limited to several randomized trials and high-performing centers. Improving patient selection criteria and perioperative management, LT will likely become an important part of the multidisciplinary approach to managing the metastatic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of hepatectomy for metastatic disease in children is controversial. Rationales include potential cure, obtaining a diagnosis, and guiding chemotherapy decisions. This study examines the safety and utility of hepatic metastasectomy for children at a single institution. METHODS After IRB approval (#22-1258), medical records were reviewed from 1995 to 2022 for children undergoing hepatic metastasectomy. En-bloc hepatectomies during primary tumor resection were excluded. RESULTS Hepatic metastasectomy was performed in 16 patients for a variety of histologies. Median patient age was 12.2 years [IQR 6.9-22.6], and 13/16 patients were female (81 %). Number of hepatic metastases ranged from 1 to 23 and involved between 1 and 8 Couinaud segments. Anatomic resections included 4 hemihepatectomies and 1 sectionectomy. All other resections were nonanatomic. 3/6 resections for germ cell tumor (GCT) revealed only mature teratoma, driving adjuvant therapy decisions. When indicated, median time to adjuvant chemotherapy was 19 days [IQR 11-22]. No patients had Clavien-Dindo Class III or higher perioperative morbidity. Three patients (1 GCT, 1 adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), and 1 gastric neuroendocrine tumor (GNET) experienced hepatic relapse. The patients with relapsed GCT and GNET are alive with disease at 17 and 135 months, respectively. The patient with ACC died of disease progression and liver failure. One patient with Wilms tumor experienced extrahepatic, retroperitoneal recurrence and died. With a median follow-up of 38 months, 10-year disease-specific and disease-free survival were 77 % and 61 %, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Hepatic metastasectomy can be accomplished safely in children, may guide adjuvant therapy decisions, and is associated with long-term survival in selected patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV. TYPE OF STUDY Treatment Study, Case series with no comparison group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to characterize the risk of postoperative complications relative to the surgical approach and overall synchronous colorectal liver metastases tumor burden score. METHODS Patients with synchronous colorectal liver metastases who underwent curative-intent resection between 2000 and 2020 were identified from an international multi-institutional database. Propensity score matching was employed to control for heterogeneity between the 2 groups. A virtual twins analysis was performed to identify potential subgroups of patients who might benefit more from staged versus simultaneous resection. RESULTS Among 976 patients who underwent liver resection for synchronous colorectal liver metastases, 589 patients (60.3%) had a staged approach, whereas 387 (39.7%) patients underwent simultaneous resection of the primary tumor and synchronous colorectal liver metastases. After propensity score matching, 295 patients who underwent each surgical approach were analyzed. Overall, the incidence of postoperative complications was 34.1% (n = 201). Among patients with high tumor burden scores, the surgical approach was associated with a higher incidence of postoperative complications; in contrast, among patients with low or medium tumor burden scores, the likelihood of complications did not differ based on the surgical approach. Virtual twins analysis demonstrated that preoperative tumor burden score was important to identify which subgroup of patients benefited most from staged versus simultaneous resection. Simultaneous resection was associated with better outcomes among patients with a tumor burden score <9 and a node-negative right-sided primary tumor; in contrast, staged resection was associated with better outcomes among patients with node-positive left-sided primary tumors and higher tumor burden score. CONCLUSION Among patients with high tumor burden scores, simultaneous resection of the primary tumor and liver metastases was associated with an increased incidence of postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Discontinuation of the Codman 3000 pump in 2018 left no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved hepatic artery infusion (HAI) device for unresectable colorectal liver metastases (uCLM) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (uIHC). Historically, HAI has been performed at academic medical centers in large metropolitan areas, which are often inaccessible to rural patients. Consequently, feasibility of dissemination of HAI to rural populations is unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS Under an FDA investigational device exemption, we opened the only HAI program in Kentucky and enrolled patients with uCLM and uIHC in a phase I clinical trial. The trial examined the safety of the hybrid Codman catheter/Medtronic SynchroMed II pump (hCMP) combination, defined as successful completion of one cycle of HAI chemotherapy. Rural feasibility was assessed by number of missed pump fills appointments. RESULTS A total of 21 patients (n = 17 uCLM, n = 4 uIHC) underwent hCMP implantation before accrual was stopped early owing to FDA approval of the Intera 3000 pump. 20/21 (95%) patients met the primary safety endpoint. Serious adverse events (AEs) included a grade 5 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection (n = 1) and a grade 3 catheter erosion into the bowel (n = 1). Biliary sclerosis developed in two patients (9.5%). Median distance to infusion center was 47.6 miles (2-138 miles), and 62% were from Appalachia, yet there were no missed pump fill appointments. The 2-year overall survival was 82.4% (uCLM) and 50% (uIHC). CONCLUSIONS The hCMP device had an acceptable safety profile. Despite the complexity of starting a new HAI program, early results showed feasibility for HAI delivery in a rural catchment area and comparable outcomes to larger urban-based HAI centers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited anatomic resections (LARs), such as segmentectomies, performed using a fully laparoscopic approach, have gained popularity for liver malignancies. However, the oncologic efficacy of laparoscopic LARs (Lap-LARs) needs further investigation. This cohort study evaluated the oncologic outcomes of Lap-LAR for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). METHODS At a Japanese referral center, 112 patients underwent Lap-LAR using the Glissonean approach and indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence navigation. Recurrence-free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS), time to interventional failure (TIF), and time to surgical failure (TSF) were assessed. RESULTS Among the 112 patients (median age, 74 years [range, 66-80 years]; 80 men [71.4 %]), Lap-LAR showed promising results. The median operative time was 348 min (range, 280-460 min), and the median blood loss was 190 mL (range, 95.5-452.0 mL). The median error between the estimated and actual liver volumes was 2 % (1.2-4.8 %). Complications greater than Clavien-Dindo 3a were observed in 11.6 % of the patients. The 5-year RFS, OS, and TIF rates for HCC were 45.1 % ± 7.9 %, 73.1 % ± 6.7 %, and 74.2 % ± 6 .6 %, respectively. The 5-year RFS, OS, and TSF rates for CRLM were 36.8 % ± 8.7 %, 60.1 % ± 13.3 %, and 63.6 % ± 10.4 %, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Lap-LAR showed favorable oncologic outcomes for HCC and CRLM. Its precise technique makes it a promising therapeutic option for liver malignancies. Further comparisons with conventional approaches are warranted.

Abstract
Importance Liver malignancies are an increasing global health concern with a high mortality. We review outcomes following liver transplant for primary and secondary hepatic malignancies. Observations Transplant may be a suitable treatment option for primary and secondary hepatic malignancies in well-selected patient populations. Conclusions and Relevance Many patients with primary or secondary liver tumors are not eligible for liver resection because of advanced underlying liver disease or high tumor burden, precluding complete tumor clearance. Although liver transplant has been a long-standing treatment modality for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, recently transplant has been considered for patients with other malignant diagnoses. In particular, while well-established for hepatocellular carcinoma and select patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, transplant has been increasingly used to treat patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, as well as metastatic disease from colorectal liver and neuroendocrine primary tumors. Because of the limited availability of grafts and the number of patients on the waiting list, optimal selection criteria must be further defined. The ethics of organ allocation to individuals who may benefit from prolonged survival after transplant yet have a high incidence of recurrence, as well as the role of living donation, need to be further discerned in the setting of transplant oncology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Alterations in liver histology influence the liver's capacity to regenerate, but the relevance of each of the different changes in rapid liver growth induction is unknown. This study aimed to analyze the influence of the degree of histological alterations during the first and second stages on the ability of the liver to regenerate. METHODS This cohort study included data obtained from the International ALPPS Registry between November 2011 and October 2020. Only patients with colorectal liver metastases were included in the study. We developed a histological risk score based on histological changes (stages 1 and 2) and a tumor pathology score based on the histological factors associated with poor tumor prognosis. RESULTS In total, 395 patients were included. The time to reach stage 2 was shorter in patients with a low histological risk stage 1 (13 vs 17 days, P ˂0.01), low histological risk stage 2 (13 vs 15 days, P <0.01), and low pathological tumor risk (13 vs 15 days, P <0.01). Regarding interval stage, there was a higher inverse correlation in high histological risk stage 1 group compared to low histological risk 1 group in relation with future liver remnant body weight ( r =-0.1 and r =-0.08, respectively), and future liver remnant ( r =-0.15 and r =-0.06, respectively). CONCLUSIONS ALPPS is associated with increased histological alterations in the liver parenchyma. It seems that the more histological alterations present and the higher the number of poor prognostic factors in the tumor histology, the longer the time to reach the second stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumors at the hepatocaval confluence can be treated with parenchyma-sparing surgery, also with minimally invasive approach.1,2 The "Liver Tunnel" was described for tumors involving the paracaval portion of Sg1 in contact or infiltrating the middle hepatic vein (MHV).3 A "Liver Tunnel" with laparoscopic approach is proposed. METHODS A 48-year-old woman was referred for three synchronous colorectal liver metastases in the paracaval portion of Sg1 in contact with the inferior vena cava and the MHV, in Sg8 ventral and in Sg6, after an urgent left laparoscopic hemicolectomy for an obstructing carcinoma. A laparoscopic Sg1 resection extended to Sg8 ventral were planned after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Estimated future liver remnant (FLR) was 75% (840 ml) of healthy liver (Fig. 1). In case of right hepatectomy extended to Sg1, estimated FLR was 25% (280 ml) of healthy liver. Fig. 1 3D reconstruction and intraoperative images of Liver Tunnel (A) and Sg6 resection (B). Total liver volume: 1110 ml. Total resected liver volume 270 ml: Liver Tunnel 93 ml; Sg6 177 ml. Liver volumes were measured with HA3D™ technology with Medics3D software (Medics3D, Turin, Italy) RESULTS: Pneumoperitoneum is established, and four operative ports are placed. Sg1 is approached from the left, dividing the Glissonean pedicles and short hepatic veins. MHV is approached cranio-caudally from the dorsal side. The resection continues on the ventral side, according to our "Ultrasound Liver Map technique" with a cranio-caudal approach to the MHV.4 Sg8 ventral pedicles are divided and the resection completed with aid of indocyanine green negative staining. A Sg6 resection is then performed. Operative time was 480 min. Blood loss was 100 ml. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on fourth postoperative day. The two parenchyma-sparing resections saved an estimated volume of 75% (840 ml) of healthy liver (Fig. 1). The estimated remnant liver volume after a right hepatectomy extended to Sg1 would have been only 25%. CONCLUSIONS Tumors at the hepatocaval confluence involving Sg1 can be removed with the "Liver Tunnel," which can be performed with minimally invasive approach. The "Laparoscopic Liver Tunnel" pushes further the limit of minimally invasive parenchyma-sparing surgery for ill-located tumors with complex vascular relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic vein reconstruction (HVR) is occasionally necessary for resecting hepatic malignancies to ensure surgical margins while preserving remnant liver function [1]. Reports of multiple HVR are rare due to the highly technical demanding procedure and high risk of morbidity [2]. We introduce our procedure of double HVR for metastatic liver tumors invading the right hepatic vein (RHV) and middle hepatic vein (MHV). METHODS The patient was a 66-year-old man with colorectal liver metastasis in segment 8, invading RHV and MHV. Due to impaired liver function, extended right hemihepatectomy was unsuitable. Thus, extended anatomical resection of segment 8 with double HVR was performed. The liver was completely mobilized and the RHV and MHV were secured. After liver parenchyma dissection, the specimen was connected by RHV and MHV (Fig. 1). The MHV was dissected and reconstructed using a right superficial femoral vein graft while the RHV remained connected [3]. Reconstruction of the MHV was performed on the posterior wall of the proximal side, followed by the anterior wall, using 4-point supporting threads. Anastomosis was performed by the over-and-over suture method. On the distal side, two-point supporting threads were applied. After specimen removal, the RHV was resected and reconstructed in the same manner using a left internal jugular vein graft [4]. RESULTS The patient was discharged on postoperative day 14 with no signs of liver failure. Computed tomography performed six months after surgery revealed no graft occlusion (Fig. 2). CONCLUSION In appropriately selected patients, this technique may be a useful option for preserving the remnant liver function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite increased adoption of the robotic platform for complex hepatobiliary resections for malignant disease, little is known about long-term survival outcomes. This is the first study to evaluate the postoperative outcomes, and short- and long-term survival rates after a robotic hepatectomy for five major malignant disease processes. METHODS A prospectively collected database of patients who underwent a robotic hepatectomy for malignant disease was reviewed. Pathologies included colorectal liver metastases (CLM), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), Klatskin tumor, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCC), and gallbladder cancer (GC). Data are presented as median (mean ± standard deviation) for illustrative purposes. RESULTS Of the 210 consecutive patients who underwent robotic hepatectomy for malignant disease, 75 (35 %) had CLM, 69 (33 %) had HCC, 27 (13 %) had Klatskin tumor, 20 (10 %) had IHCC, and 19 (9 %) had GC. Patients were 66 (65 ± 12.4) years old with a BMI of 29 (29 ± 6.5) kg/m2. R0 resection was achieved in 91 %, and 65 % underwent a major hepatectomy. Postoperative major complication rate was 6 %, length of stay was four (5 ± 4.3) days, and 30-day readmission rate was 17 %. Survival at 1, 3, and 5-years were 93 %/75 %/72 % for CLM, 84 %/71 %/64 % for HCC, 73 %/55 %/55 % for Klatskin tumor, 80 %/69 %/69 % for IHCC, 79 %/65 %/65 % for GC. CONCLUSION This study suggests a favorable 5-year overall survival benefit with use of the robotic platform in hepatic resection for colorectal metastases, hepatocellular carcinoma, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, Klatskin tumor, and gallbladder cancer. The robotic platform facilitates fine dissection in complex hepatobiliary operations, with a high rate of R0 resections and excellent perioperative clinical outcomes.
