Objective: The aim of our study was to conduct a meta-analysis of reports published on
hepatic resection for colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) and determine whether a negative …

Objective: To examine the impact of surgical margin width on survival following R0 hepatic
resection for colorectal metastases (CRLM). Summary of Background Data: Although …

BACKGROUND: The optimal margin width and its influence on outcomes after hepatic
resection for colorectal liver metastases is still controversial: a meta-analysis was conducted …

Background Traditionally a 1-cm margin has been accepted as the gold standard for
resection of colorectal liver metastases. Evidence is emerging that a lesser margin may …

Background Several reports have presented conflicting results regarding the association
between resection margins (RMs) and outcome after surgery for colorectal liver metastases …

Objective The need to achieve a tumor-free margin of≥ 1 mm (R0) for colorectal liver
metastases (CRLM) after hepatic resection has been questioned recently. This study …

Objective: To analyze the impact of margin width on long-term outcome after hepatic
resection for colorectal metastasis. Summary Background Data: The optimal margin width …

BACKGROUND: Hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) may offer good long-
term survival. The impact of the tumor-free surgical margin on long-term results remains …

Background Optimal margin width is uncertain because of conflicting results from recent
studies using overall survival as the end-point. After recurrence, re-resection and aggressive …

Background The purpose of the present study was to assess the prognostic impact of
positive surgical margins (R1) after liver resection (LR) of colorectal liver metastases …
