Liver resection of colorectal metastases in elderly patients

Abstract: Liver resection for CLM in elderly patients can achieve a reasonable 3-year survival rate, with an acceptable morbidity rate. There should be no upper age limit but risk factors may help predict potential benefit.

“…The majority of the panel (14/15, 93%) agreed that synchronicity is a sign of poor prognosis, irrespective of the treatment. In the ongoing LiverMetSurvey international registry, an international registry of patients undergoing surgery for CRCLM, [20], available current data show a significant difference in survival when metastases are detected at or 1 month before diagnosis vs 0-3 months after diagnosis (p < 0.0001); 5-year survival is 39% vs 44%, respectively (Fig. 1).…”

“…One study looking at liver surgery for CLM in the elderly (>70 years old) reported a slightly higher mortality rate (3.8% versus 1.6%) and postoperative complication rate (15.9% versus 12.5%) compared with patients <70 years old. While patients need to be selected carefully in this group, they should not be excluded from potentially curative or life extending intervention solely on the basis of age [Adam et al 2010b]. The following criteria are generally considered to be contraindications to hepatic resection: Extensive unresectable extrahepatic disease (EHD), involvement of contralateral portal structures (e.g.…”

“…Показано, в част-ности, что у больных с метастазами рака толстой кишки в печень успешная радикальная резекция позволяет до-биться высоких показателей отдаленной выживаемости вне зависимости от исходного возраста пациента [1]. В то же время, старение населения и расширение показаний к опе-рации делают оценку возможности проведения резекции печени у больных пожилого и старческого возраста, нередко страдающих серьезными сопутствующими заболеваниями, все более важной проблемой для хирургов-гепатологов [2].…”
