Abstract:
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancies in human, and colorectal liver metastasis (CLM) is one of the most common leading causes of death in these patients. In recent years, along with the update of diagnosis and treatment concept and advancement of operative technique, more and more patients with CLM get surgical treatment opportunities and the outcomes are improved. In clinical practice of CLM, depending on evidence-based medicine, standardized diagnosis and treatment is particularly important, which includes diagnosis and treatment by multidisciplinary team, accurate evaluation of the resectability of CLM, standardized surgical resection and essential comprehensive treatment.
