Core Tip	Previous studies reported that hepatectomy is better than radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to improve survival outcomes in the patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). However, there is still controversy that RFA is beneficial in selected patients. In this study, hepatectomy was better than RFA for the treatment of CRLM. However, RFA might be suitable for selected patients with single, small CRLM (≤ 2 cm).
