Abstract
Current surgical treatment options for liver metastasis Abstract. Metastasis are the most frequent hepatic tumors. Although current treatment regimens focus highly on interdisciplinarity and are individualized, surgical resection remains the only curative treatment and represents the current gold standard approach. Advances in surgical, systemic and interventional treatment within the last years have resulted in a multidisciplinary therapy, individualized for each patient depending on their disease stage and condition. With these advancements, initially non-resectable liver metastasis can now be candidates for a surgical approach. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy, minimal invasive ablation, two- or multi-staged resections of the liver with or without portal vein embolization have contributed to this development. Advances in surgical and perioperative treatment also account for significantly increased overall survival.
