Summary:Background When hepatectomy is used as a primary treatment for liver metastasis from colorectal cancer (CRCLM), the balance between surgical curability and functional preservation of the remnant liver is of great importance. Methods A total of 108 patients who underwent initial hepatectomy for CRCLM were retrospectively analyzed with respect to tumor extent, operative method, and prognosis, including recurrence. Results The 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates (OS) for all patients were 90.5%, 77.8%, 63.2%, and 51.6%, respectively.
