For the 20% of patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), hepatic resection is safe, effective and potentially curative. Factors related to the primary and metastatic tumors individually and in clinical risk-scoring schemes are the best prognostic factors, although it is difficult to define patient groups with resectable, liver-limited CRLM that should be excluded from surgery. Systemic chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer has improved but does not improve overall survival as adjuvant therapy after resection. Conversion to complete resection with systemic and/or hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy is an appropriate goal for patients with unresectable CRLM.
