“…[13][14][15][16] In the patients with relapse after the initial hepatic resection, the recurrences were distributed relatively equally among the liver, lung, and liver and lung concurrently, 3 and patients with pulmonary or pulmonary with hepatic recurrence had poorer prognoses than those with isolated intrahepatic recurrence, as reported previously by our colleagues. 7 It remains unclear whether sequential operative management for successive recurrences provides survival benefit after relapse.…”

“…At each of the repeat resections with curative intent, approximately one-third of the patients remained recurrence-free, and two-thirds developed recurrence events; of the latter, onehalf were found to be suitable candidates for further resection. Compared with previous studies in which repeated resections were carried out for selected recurrences in the liver or lung (Supplementary Table I, online version only), [13][14][15][16]21 our results provide the following additional clinically beneficial information: (1) the outcomes of sequential resections for successive recurrences, namely, natural history in the patients who underwent upfront curative hepatic resection; (2) the actual benefit of the repeat resection itself without perioperative intervention (ie, systemic chemotherapy, ablation therapy, or hepatic arterial infusion therapy) as the second, third, and fourth lines of treatment; and (3) data from a sufficient number of patients treated according to the same therapeutic policy for CLM and followed for a sufficient duration of time at a single specialized center. The recent report by Saiura et al 21 also lends support to the potentially curative role of repeat resection, especially for a first recurrence in the liver or lung alone after the initial liver resection for CLM.…”

“…Similarly, there is no consensus on frequent resection in the case of hepatic metastasis. However, Kulik et al reported that recurrent colorectal liver metastasis surgery is feasible, with morbidity and mortality rates similar to those for resection of initial or single colorectal liver metastases (3).…”

“…In previous studies, the number of CRLM was thought to be a prognostic factor for repeat hepatectomy. However, this has not been well studied compared with primary hepatectomy [6,11] . Major hepatectomy is associated with high morbidity rate.…”
