Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Medical Oncology

Background:

  • Surgical treatment of primary and secondary liver tumors faces limitations like bilobar metastases, small residual liver volume, and vascular infiltration.
  • While surgery is the gold standard for long-term survival in liver tumors, local ablation and chemotherapy have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of aggressive surgical resection combined with multidisciplinary treatments for liver tumors.
  • To determine survival rates in patients with complex liver metastases undergoing advanced surgical procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiofrequency ablation.
  • Extended liver resection following selective portal vein embolization.
  • Two-stage hepatectomy and resection of vascular structures under deep hypothermia.

  • Simultaneous resection of pulmonary metastases.
  • Main Results:

    • Achieved 5-year survival rates of 26-46% for colorectal liver metastases and 40% for primary liver tumors.
    • Reported a median survival of 42 months after combined liver and lung metastases resection.
    • Demonstrated increased resectability in patients with poor prognoses.

    Conclusions:

    • Interdisciplinary treatment and aggressive surgical resection are justified as curative options for liver tumors.
    • Safe surgical execution is paramount for achieving curative outcomes.
    • Advanced surgical techniques improve survival in challenging liver cancer cases.
