Abstract
AbstractColorectal cancer liver metastases (CLM) treatment is very important given the high incidence of colorectal cancer with liver metastases, which are primarily treated by surgical resection. Transformational therapy such as systemic chemotherapy, hepatic arterial infusion (HAI), portal vein embolization (PVE), ablation therapy, and targeted therapy, should be applied to CLM patients who are unable to undergo immediate surgery to improve patients’ survival and quality of life.
