Rates and Patterns of Recurrence Following Curative Intent Surgery for Colorectal Liver Metastasis

Abstract: While 5-year survival following surgery for colorectal liver metastasis approaches 50%, over one-half of patients develop recurrence within 2 years. The pattern of failure is distributed relatively equally among intrahepatic, extrahepatic, and intra- plus extrahepatic sites. Patients undergoing repeat surgery for recurrent metastasis have similar patterns of recurrence and RFS time.

“…To our knowledge, no other studies have investigated the correlation of metabolic activity and extrahepatic disease recurrence. Other studies that investigated possible predictors of extrahepatic recurrence after curative-intent surgery, found the following characteristics associated with an increased risk: primary rectal tumour site, primary tumour lymph node metastasis, hepatic tumour size >5 cm, hepatic tumour number >4, as well as receipt of chemotherapy [32][33][34][35]. The lack of association between metabolic activity and extrahepatic disease in our cohort is remarkable as our results demonstrated a significant association between metabolic activity and OS.…”

“…In most series, up to 25% of patients presenting with stage IV CRC undergo hepatic resection (Kopetz et al, 2009), with reported 5-year survival rates up to 50% (Taylor et al, 2010;Choti et al, 2002;Chua et al, 2011). However over one-half of patients will develop recurrence within 2 years (de Jong et al, 2009;Fong et al, 1999;Nordlinger et al, 1996), not getting any long-term survival benefit from hepatic resection.…”

“…Therefore difficulties remain in deciding who is a good candidate for liver resection. Many studies have examined several clinical and pathological factors, including number and size of CLM, disease-free interval from primary to CLM, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level, primary tumor stage, synchronous or metachronous CLM, as potential prognostic determinants of survival after surgical resection of CLM, in order to establish a preoperative scoring system that is able to predict the risk of recurrence after resection, and ultimately allows the selection of those patients who may benefit more from surgery (Choti et al, 2002;de Jong et al, 2009;Fong et al, 1999;Nordlinger et al, 1996;Mann et al, 2004;Nagashima et al, 2006a,b).…”
