Reresection of Colorectal Liver Secondaries: A Preliminary Report

摘要

During a 4.5–year period, 5 patients underwent reresection of colorectal liver metastases. Two patientsdied of recurrent disease, 9–11 months after reresection. Three patients are alive, one without and twowith recurrent disease, 15, 15 and 68 months after reresection. Although our results suggest that liverreresection may be meaningful in selected patients with colorectal liver metastases, further studies arenecessary in order to define candidates for this procedure.
