Abstract
It is rare for portal vein thrombosis to complicate colorectal liver metastases. However malignant portal vein thrombosis must be anticipated when considering hepatic resection. While this finding may influence long-term survival, it does not absolutely contraindicate hepatic resection. We report here a case of colorectal metastasis to the liver with associated macroscopic malignant portal vein thrombosis treated with hepatic resection; the patient is free from recurrence at 5-year follow-up.
