Abstract / Description of output

The acceptable indications for liver resection in patients with colorectal metastases have increased significantly in the last decade. It is thus becoming more difficult to ascertain the limitations for selection as the boundaries have been greatly extended. This has resulted in not only more extensive resections, but more atypical and bilobar resections. The aim of this study was to compare the outcome of patients undergoing different extent of liver resection in a specialist unit.
