Guidelines for the detection and treatment of liver metastases of colorectal cancer
Tóm tắt
The spread of the surgical treatment for hepatic metastases have been crucial in the improvement of treatment and survival of metastatic colorectal cancer. The early and accurate diagnosis of metastases and the assessment of their size are essential factors to reach the optimal results with this treatment strategy. The precise indication of the surgical technique with or without the previous administration of neoadjuvant chemotherapy is of significant importance for the choice of R0 surgery and the timing of intervention. Although there is an agreement regarding some parameters related to diagnosis techniques and surgical criteria such as the bilobar extension, the size of the remaining liver post-surgical removal and the indication of pre-operatory chemotherapy, it is necessary to consider all these factors to set up standard criteria and optimize the results. In this article we review all these parameters, from disease follow up to detect metastatic dissemination to the basic criteria for use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, in order to suggest some general recommendations of evidence level II and recommendation grade A.
