Abstract

The introduction of new therapeutic agents and more aggressive surgical approach has dramatically improved the survival of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The definition of resectability of metastases has changed over the past decade. Patients with potentially curable disease are those in whom surgery can result in safe resection of all metastatic disease with negative margins. That is why the preoperative selection of patients is very important.
