Core Tip |
It is a well-established fact that more than 40% of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) develop liver metastasis during the disease course despite all the surveys leading to more suitable systemic treatments, efficient chemotherapy, and surgical resections. liver transplantation (LT) could be a treatment option for patients with unresectable CRC liver metastasis without extrahepatic involvement. The initial assessment and proper selection of suitable patients is mandatory for better outcomes for these patients. It turns out that to be candidates for an LT, patients have to meet strict criteria described in the two prospective studies, SECA-I and SECA-II. Despite the proven benefits of LT for non-resectable colorectal liver metastases, this method is still not widely used worldwide due to a lack of policy and healthcare reforms in many countries. |
