This cohort study examines overall and recurrence-free survival outcomes in adult patients with liver-confined, unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases who underwent a living-donor liver transplant.

Extended lymphadenectomy patients (≥20 LNs) had worse OS when compared with those with more limited (<20 LNs) resection. An LNR of at least 0.37 is an independent predictor of DFS.

OSNA has an unacceptably low positive predictive value, leading to axillary clearances that would not be recommended if standard histology had been used to assess the sentinel node.
