Core Tip Colorectal cancer is one of the commonest cancers in the world. The management of metastatic colorectal cancer has changed significantly in last decade or so; primarily based on better understanding of the molecular complexity of colorectal cancer coupled with aggressive approach in management of colorectal liver metastases. Colorectal liver metastasises were once considered as incurable disease but with better treatment options and valuable input from multi-disciplinary teams, this disease can be cured in a proportion of patients. This review takes into account various clinical scenarios and their complexity that the clinicians may face during management of this disease.
