Core Tip	For patients with extensive bilobar colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), surgery may not be an option and a multimodal approach including computer navigated intervention may be the only chance for prolonged survival. Here we report on a 59-year-old patient undergoing combined resection/microwave ablation for multiple, synchronous bilobar CRLM using an intraoperative navigation system. Of the ten lesions detected in a preoperative computed tomography scan, the largest was resected and the remaining nine ablated. Navigated interventions may provide excellent tumor control, possibly improve longer-term survival, provide real-time information to the surgeon, thus aiding the decision-making process and substantially improving ablation and resection accuracy.
