Abstract
BACKGROUND In the last three decades, minimally invasive liver resection has been replacing conventional open approach in liver surgery. More recently, developments in neoadjuvant chemotherapy have led to increased multidisciplinary management of colorectal liver metastases with both medical and surgical treatment modalities. However, the impact of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the surgical outcomes of minimally invasive liver resections remains poorly understood. METHODS A multicenter, international, database of 4998 minimally invasive minor hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases was used to compare surgical outcomes in patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with surgery alone. To correct for baseline imbalance, propensity score matching, coarsened exact matching and inverse probability treatment weighting were performed. RESULTS 2546 patients met the inclusion criteria. After propensity score matching there were 759 patients in both groups and 383 patients in both groups after coarsened exact matching. Baseline characteristics were equal after both matching strategies. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was not associated with statistically significant worse surgical outcomes of minimally invasive minor hepatectomy. CONCLUSION Neoadjuvant chemotherapy had no statistically significant impact on short-term surgical outcomes after simple and complex minimally invasive minor hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a leading cause of postoperative mortality after liver surgery. Due to its significant impact, it is imperative to understand the risk stratification and preventative strategies for PHLF. The main objective of this review is to highlight the role of these strategies in a timeline centered way around curative resection. DATA SOURCES This review includes studies on both humans and animals, where they addressed PHLF. A literature search was conducted across the Cochrane Library, Embase, MEDLINE/PubMed, and Web of Knowledge electronic databases for English language studies published between July 1997 and June 2020. Studies presented in other languages were equally considered. The quality of included publications was assessed using Downs and Black's checklist. The results were presented in qualitative summaries owing to the lack of studies qualifying for quantitative analysis. RESULTS This systematic review with 245 studies, provides insight into the current prediction, prevention, diagnosis, and management options for PHLF. This review highlighted that liver volume manipulation is the most frequently studied preventive measure against PHLF in clinical practice, with modest improvement in the treatment strategies over the past decade. CONCLUSIONS Remnant liver volume manipulation is the most consistent preventive measure against PHLF.

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:1209-1216. [PMID: 36774216 PMCID: PMC10809954 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2023.01.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimal invasive liver resections are a safe alternative to open surgery. Different scoring systems considering different risks factors have been developed to predict the risks associated with these procedures, especially challenging major liver resections (MLR). However, the impact of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAT) on the difficulty of minimally invasive MLRs remains poorly investigated. METHODS Patients who underwent laparoscopic and robotic MLRs for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) performed across 57 centers between January 2005 to December 2021 were included in this analysis. Patients who did or did not receive NAT were matched based on 1:1 coarsened exact and 1:2 propensity-score matching. Pre- and post-matching comparisons were performed. RESULTS In total, the data of 5189 patients were reviewed. Of these, 1411 procedures were performed for CRLM, and 1061 cases met the inclusion criteria. After excluding 27 cases with missing data on NAT, 1034 patients (NAT: n = 641; non-NAT: n = 393) were included. Before matching, baseline characteristics were vastly different. Before matching, the morbidity rate was significantly higher in the NAT-group (33.2% vs. 27.2%, p-value = 0.043). No significant differences were seen in perioperative outcomes after the coarsened exact matching. After the propensity-score matching, statistically significant higher blood loss (mean, 300 (SD 128-596) vs. 250 (SD 100-400) ml, p-value = 0.047) but shorter hospital stay (mean, 6 [4-8] vs. 6 [5-9] days, p-value = 0.043) were found in the NAT-group. CONCLUSION The current study demonstrated that NAT had minimal impact on the difficulty and outcomes of minimally-invasive MLR for CRLM.

Chemotherapy-Induced Liver Injury in Patients with Colorectal Liver Metastases: Findings from MR Imaging. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12040867. [PMID: 35453915 PMCID: PMC9029929 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12040867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2022] [Revised: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced liver injury has been found to be quite common in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Being aware of chemotherapy-induced hepatotoxicity is important for avoiding errors in detecting liver metastases and for defining the most appropriate clinical management strategy. MRI imaging has proven to be a useful troubleshooting tool that helps overcome false negatives in tumor response imaging after chemotherapy due to liver parenchyma changes. The purpose of this review is, therefore, to describe the characteristics of magnetic resonance imaging of the broad spectrum of liver damage induced by systemic chemotherapeutic agents in order to avoid misdiagnoses of liver metastases and disease progression and to define the most appropriate clinical management strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) due to chemotherapy can cause severe hepatotoxicity, leading to impaired outcome in patients with colorectal cancer. A previous study introduced gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (Gd-EOB-MRI) to diagnose SOS. PURPOSE To assess the reproducibility of Gd-EOB-MRI-based SOS diagnosis and its relationship with response to chemotherapy and long-term outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-six Gd-EOB-MRI scans of patients undergoing chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) were retrospectively analyzed. Three radiologists, blinded to clinical data, independently scored presence and severity of SOS on a 5-point scale (0, definitely not present to 4, definitely present). Patients with a score ≥3 were considered SOS+. Inter-observer agreement between readers was assessed with kappa statistics. Response (RECIST 1.1.), occurrence of new CRLM during follow-up (hepatic progression) and overall survival (OS) were compared between patients with and without SOS. RESULTS The inter-observer agreement of SOS scores was poor, with quadratic kappas of 0.17-0.40. For the binary outcome of SOS+ (confidence level [CL] 3-4) vs. SOS- (CL 0-2) agreement was poor, with kappas of 0.03-0.37. Median follow-up was 24 months (range 4-44 months). Response and OS between patients with and without SOS did not differ significantly for any of the readers. CONCLUSION Inter-observer agreement for the diagnosis of SOS on Gd-EOB-MRI is poor. No significant correlation with relevant outcomes was found for any of the readers. Therefore, MRI for SOS diagnosis might be less useful than previously reported. Other techniques should be explored to accurately diagnose SOS in absence of histological confirmation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-associated liver injury (CALI) is a matter of concern for hepatobiliary surgeons as it can entail postoperative liver failure after an extensive hepatectomy. Recent studies have taken special interest in liver function parameters which can correlate with CALI to decrease this adverse event. Therefore, the current study investigates the usefulness of splenic volume as a biomarker of CALI through a portal hypertension mechanism, in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). STUDY DESIGN We carried out a study in patients with CRLM operated on between 2009 and 2014 in our center. All samples of healthy liver were graded for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and sinusoidal obstructive syndrome. Computarized tomography scans for spleen volumetry were analyzed for each patient at CRLM diagnosis, after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 1 and 6 months after resection. RESULTS A group of 65 consecutive patients with CRLM of large bowel adenocarcinoma submitted to liver resection were included. Patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy had a greater spleen volume increase than those who did not receive treatment (p = 0.053), finding a statistically significant spleen growth in patients with NAFLD (p = 0.036). There was no correlation between spleen enlargement and postoperative complications or average stay. However, survival was decreased in patients with spleen growth and CALI. CONCLUSIONS Patients who receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy for liver metastasis surgery have a greater splenic volume increase, which correlates with NAFLD and a lower survival.

Abstract
Liver resection is one of the main treatment strategies for liver malignancies. Mortality and morbidity of liver surgery has improved significantly with progress in selection criteria, development of operative procedures and improvements in perioperative management. Safe liver resection has thus become more available worldwide. We have identified four current topics related to liver resection (anatomical liver resection, laparoscopic liver resection, staged liver resection and chemotherapy-induced liver injury). The balance between treatment effect and patient safety needs to be considered when planning liver resection. Progress in this area has been rapid thanks to the efforts of many surgeons, and outcomes have improved significantly as a result. These topics remain to be solved and more robust evidence is needed. Precise selection of the optimal procedure and risk evaluation should be standardized with further development of each topic. The present article reviews these four current topics with a focus on safety and efficacy in recent series.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin is a core chemotherapeutic agent used for the treatment of colorectal liver metastasis; however, liver injury caused by oxaliplatin increases the risk of peri‑operative morbidity and mortality. Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate (MgiG) is a magnesium salt of 18‑α glycyrrhizic acid stereoisomer that has demonstrated liver‑protective effects against toxins and hepatitis. In the present study, the liver‑protective effect of MgiG against oxaliplatin‑induced hepatic injury was examined in vitro and in vivo. The results demonstrated that MgiG had a protective effect against oxaliplatin‑induced liver injury, as evidenced by the alleviation of hepatic pathological damage and transaminase levels. The protective effect of MgiG was demonstrated to be correlated with inhibition of oxidative stress, the interleukin‑6 pathway and the coagulation system. Altogether, the present findings suggested that MgiG may have potential value in the clinical prevention and treatment of oxaliplatin‑induced liver injury.

Abstract
Background Thanks to modern multimodal treatment the ouctome of patients with colorectal cancer has experienced significant improvements. As a downside, agent specific side effects have been observed such as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) after oxaliplatin chemotherapy (OX). Bevazicumab targeting VEGF is nowadays comprehensively used in combination protocols with OX but its impact on hepatotoxicity is thus far elusive and focus of the present study. Results After MCT administration 67% of animals developed SOS. GOT serum concentration significantly increased in animals developing SOS (p < 0.001). Subsequent to MCT administration 100% of animals treated with Anti-VEGF developed SOS. In contrast, animals receiving VEGF developed SOS merely in 40% while increasing the VEGF dose led to a further decrease in SOS development to 25%. MMP 9 concentration in animals developing SOS was significantly higher compared to controls (p < 0,001). Additional treatment with Anti-VEGF increased the MMP 9 concentration significantly (p < 0,05). Conclusions Preservation of liver function is a central goal in both curative and palliative treatment phases of patients with CRC. Thus, knowledge about hepatotoxic side effects of chemotherapeutic and biological agents is crucial. From the results it can be concluded that Anti-VEGF exacerbates SOS paralleled by MMP 9 production. Therefore, OX-Bevacizumab combination therapies should be administered with caution, especially if liver parenchyma damage is apparent. Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were gavaged Monocrotaline (MCT) to induce SOS. Recombinant VEGF or an Anti-VEGF antibody was administered to MCT-treated rats and the hepatotoxic effect monitored in defined time intervals. MMP 9 expression in the liver was measured by ELISA.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of colorectal liver metastases. Oxaliplatin, however, causes sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), which is characterized by portal hypertension, splenomegaly, thrombocytopenia, and liver dysfunction. SOS is diagnosed histopathologically by disruption of the sinusoidal endothelium, collagen deposition, fibrosis especially around zone 3, dilatation of the sinusoidal space and congestion. This study assessed the characteristics of a rat model of SOS. SOS was induced in rats by administration of monocrotaline (MCT). Blood chemistries and macroscopic and microscopic findings were compared in rats administered MCT and vehicle (control group). Levels of expression in the liver of CD41, P‑selectin, rat endothelial cell antigen‑1, CD34, and cleaved caspase‑3 were analyzed immunohistochemically. Moreover, livers of these rats were analyzed by electron microscopy. Macroscopically, MCT‑treated rats showed accumulation of bloody ascites and blue liver and were diagnosed with SOS histologically. Serum concentrations of aspartate aminotransferase (P=0.003), alanine aminotransferase (P=0.008), total‑bilirubin (P=0.012), direct‑bilirubin (P=0.007), indirect‑bilirubin (P=0.003), lactate dehydrogenase (P<0.001) and hyaluronic acid (P=0.016) were significantly higher, and platelet counts significantly lower (P=0.004), in MCT‑treated than in control rats. The livers of MCT‑treated rats were immunohistochemically positive for CD41 and P‑selectin, suggesting platelet aggregates; for rat endothelial cell antigen‑1 and CD34, suggesting sinusoidal endothelial disorder; and for cleaved caspase‑3, suggesting hepatocyte apoptosis. Electron microscopic findings revealed platelet aggregation in the space of Disse in the MCT group. Extravasated platelet aggregation in Disse's space may be involved in the development of SOS.

Abstract
PURPOSE In recent years, multimodal treatment approaches have led to an increased median survival time of patients with colorectal liver metastases. In particular, this results from new perioperative chemotherapy regimens, which in turn are accompanied by an increased risk of perioperative bleeding and/or liver failure due to the hepatotoxic side effects. Nineteen to 58 % of patients treated with oxaliplatin develop sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). The influence of preexisting SOS on liver surgery remains controversial. METHODS Animals were operated 4 days after SOS induction with monocrotaline and received either vascular occlusion in the form of Pringle maneuver (PM) or hepatectomy (LR; 70 %) or a combination of both (LR + PM). Postoperative liver function was assessed by determination of liver enzyme levels, bile production, and tissue oxygen saturation. RESULTS Preexisting SOS impaired morbidity after liver resection, reflected by elevated liver enzyme levels, reduced bile secretion, and low liver tissue oxygenation levels. Mortality was increased by up to 25 %. Additional ischemia in the form of PM showed no further impact in the LR ± PM group compared to LR alone. CONCLUSION PM without LR results in high enzyme distribution in the SOS group. SOS significantly affects the outcome after liver resection in our experimental rat model only without PM and showed no protective effect in ischemia in the form of PM.

Abstract
Background Some studies have suggested that preoperative chemotherapy for hepatic colorectal
metastases may cause hepatic injury and increase perioperative morbidity and
mortality. Aim To evaluate the prevalence of hepatic steatosis in patients undergoing
preoperative chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer. Methods Observational retrospective cohort study in which 166 patients underwent 185
hepatectomies for metastatic colorectal cancer with or without associated
preoperative chemotherapy from 2004 to 2011. The data were obtained from a review
of the medical records and an analysis of the anatomopathological report on the
non-tumor portion of the surgical specimen. The study sample was divided into two
groups: those who were exposed and those who were unexposed to chemotherapy. Results From the hepatectomies, 136 cases (73.5%) underwent preoperative chemotherapy,
with most (62.5%) using a regimen of 5-fluorouracil + leucovorin. A 40% greater
risk of cell damage was detected in 62% of the exposed group. The predominant
histological pattern of the cell damage was steatosis, which was detected in 51%
of the exposed cases. Exposure to chemotherapy increased the risk of steatosis by
2.2 fold. However, when the risk factors were controlled, only the presence of
risk of hepatopathy was associated with steatosis, with a relative risk of 4
(2.7-5.9). Conclusion Patients exposed to chemotherapy have 2.2 times the risk of developing hepatic
steatosis, and its occurrence is associated with the presence of predisposing
factors such as diabetes mellitus and hepatopathy.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy plays a central role in the treatment of patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). This treatment, however, has been associated with hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), a clinically important adverse effect characterized by a bluish hue of the liver, splenomegaly and thrombocytopenia, resulting in liver dysfunction. The significant association between the sinusoidal endothelium and platelets has suggested that oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy affects platelets in the liver. This study compared platelet counts in patients who did and did not receive oxaliplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). The peripheral blood platelet count was significantly lower in the NAC group (n=17) compared to that in the non-NAC, or control group (n=15) (P<0.05). The spleen index was also higher in the NAC group, although the difference was not significant. However, the spleens of the patients in the NAC group were significantly enlarged following treatment (P<0.01). Immunostaining for the platelet surface marker CD42b (glycoprotein Ib), revealed more platelets in the liver in the NAC compared to the control group, particularly in the centrilobular zone III, adjacent to the hepatic central vein and in contact with hepatocytes (P<0.01). The platelets present in the spaces of Disse, referred to as extravasated platelet aggregation (EPA), secrete a number of growth factors, including transforming growth factor-β, vascular endothelial growth factor-A, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and thromboxane A2. In conclusion, EPA may play an important role in the development of hepatic SOS. Moreover, antiplatelet drugs may prevent the onset of SOS and hepatic injury in patients treated with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy for CRLM.

Abstract
Systemic chemotherapy, targeted therapies and radiotherapy for patients with malignant tumors lead to unfavorable surgical conditions with increased risks of postoperative complications. For gastric cancer and cancer of the esophagogastric junction, surgery after neoadjuvant treatment is associated with a mortality of approximately 5 %. Given the increase in metastatic surgery for colorectal carcinoma, surgeons should be aware of the specific side effects of therapeutic drugs to ensure an optimal course of treatment. The impact of chemotherapy-induced hepatic lesions on postoperative development is unclear. Bevacizumab treatment should be stopped at least 5 weeks before surgery to reduce the risk of thromboembolic events, bleeding and wound healing complications. Immunosuppressive and immunomodulating agents alter wound healing and preoperative alterations should be carefully evaluated. For patients with chronic corticosteroid therapy, perioperative supplementation should be considered when planning surgery as well as routine dosages.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The most frequent presentation of chemotherapy-related toxicity in colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). The purpose of the present study was to identify preoperative factors predictive of SOS and to establish associations between type of chemotherapy and severity of SOS. METHODS A retrospective study was carried out in a tertiary academic referral hospital. Patients suffering from CRLM who had undergone resection of at least one liver segment were included. Grading of SOS on the non-tumoral liver parenchyma was accomplished according to the Rubbia-Brandt criteria. A total of 151 patients were enrolled and divided into four groups according to the severity of SOS (grades 0-3). RESULTS Multivariate analysis identified oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil as chemotherapeutic agents responsible for severe SOS lesions (P < 0.001 and P = 0.005, respectively). Bevacizumab was identified as having a protective effect against the occurrence of SOS lesions (P = 0.005). Univariate analysis identified the score on the aspartate aminotransferase : platelets ratio index (APRI) as the most significant biological factor predictive of severe SOS lesions. Splenomegaly is also significantly associated with the occurrence of severe SOS lesions. CONCLUSIONS The APRI score and splenomegaly are effective as factors predictive of SOS. Bevacizumab has a protective effect against SOS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy has been linked to the development of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), which is detrimental to outcome after liver resection for colorectal liver metastases (CLM). The aim of this study was to determine how the expression of genes involved in the transport and metabolism of FOLFOX chemotherapy impacts on tissue injury in a murine model of CLM. METHODS Experimental CLM was established in C57/B16 mice and treated with FOLFOX chemotherapy. After 3 weeks, the animals were killed and RNA extracted from liver, spleen and tumour tissue. DNA damage was assessed by immunohistochemistry for γH2AX. Gene expression was determined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS FOLFOX treatment was associated with an increase in the number of γH2AX-positive cells in both the spleen (P < 0.01) and tumour tissue (P < 0.01), but not the liver. Tissue resistance to injury following FOLFOX was associated with high expression of the copper transporter ATP7B. Differences in the expression of genes related to 5-fluorouracil metabolism or DNA repair did not correlate with the severity of tissue injury. CONCLUSIONS High levels of expression of ATP7B are associated with resistance to tissue injury following FOLFOX chemotherapy. Polymorphisms in the ATP7B gene may explain varying susceptibility to SOS among patients following oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) following oxaliplatin based chemotherapy can have a significant impact on post-operative outcome following resection of colorectal liver metastases. To date no relevant experimental models of oxaliplatin induced SOS have been described. The aim of this project was to establish a rodent model which could be utilised to investigate mechanisms underlying SOS to aid the development of therapeutic strategies. METHODS C57Bl/6 mice, maintained on a purified diet, were treated with intra-peritoneal FOLFOX (n=10), or vehicle (n=10), weekly for five weeks and culled one week following final treatment. Sections of the liver and spleen were fixed in formalin and paraffin embedded for histological analysis. The role of oxidative stress on experimental-induced SOS was determined by dietary supplementation with butylated hydroxyanisole and N-acetylcysteine. RESULTS FOLFOX treatment was associated with the development of sinusoidal dilatation and hepatocyte atrophy on H&E stained sections of the liver in keeping with SOS. Immunohistochemistry for p21 demonstrated the presence of replicative senescence within the sinusoidal endothelium. FOLFOX induced endothelial damage leads to a pro-thrombotic state within the liver associated with upregulation of PAI-1 (p<0.001), vWF (p<0.01) and Factor X (p<0.001), which may contribute to the propagation of liver injury. Dietary supplementation with the antioxidant BHA prevented the development of significant SOS. CONCLUSIONS We have developed the first reproducible model of chemotherapy induced SOS that reflects the pathogenesis of this disease in patients. It appears that the use of antioxidants alongside oxaliplatin based chemotherapy may be of value in preventing the development of SOS in patients with colorectal liver metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-associated liver injury is a major cause for concern when treating patients with colorectal liver metastases. The aim of this review was to determine the pathological effect of specific chemotherapy regimens on the hepatic parenchyma as well as on surgical morbidity, mortality and overall survival. METHODS A systematic review of the published literature and a meta-analysis were performed. For each of the variables under consideration, the effects of different chemotherapy regimens were determined by calculation of relative risks by a random-effects model. RESULTS Hepatic parenchymal injury is regimen specific, with oxaliplatin-based regimens being associated with grade 2 or greater sinusoidal injury (number needed to harm 8; 95 % confidence interval [CI] 6.4-13.6), whereas irinotecan-based regimens associated with steatohepatitis (number needed to harm 12; 95 % CI 7.8-26). The use of bevacizumab alongside FOLFOX reduces the risk of grade 2 or greater sinusoidal injury (relative risk 0.34; 95 % CI 0.15-0.75). CONCLUSIONS Chemotherapy before resection of colorectal liver metastases is associated with an increased risk of regimen-specific liver injury. This liver injury may have implications for the functional reserve of the liver for patients undergoing major hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases.

Abstract
The aim of our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of liver transplantation in patients with cholangiocarcinoma. According to the requirements of Cochrane systematic review, a thorough literature search was performed in PubMed/Medline, Embase and Cochrane electronic databases between 1995 and 2009 in terms of the key words "liver transplantation" and "cholangiocarcinoma," "cholangiocellular carcinoma" or "bile duct cancer," with restricted articles for the English language. Data were processed for a meta-analysis by Stata 10 software. Altogether 14 clinical trials containing 605 transplanted patients of bile duct cancers were finally enrolled in our study. The overall 1-, 3- and 5-year pooled survival rates were 0.73 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.65-0.80], 0.42 (95% CI = 0.33-0.51) and 0.39 (95% CI = 0.28-0.51), respectively. Of note, preoperative adjuvant therapies [orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT)-PAT group] rendered the transplanted individuals with comparably favorable outcomes with 1-, 3- and 5-year pooled survival rates of 0.83 (95% CI = 0.57-0.98), 0.57 (95% CI = 0.18-0.92) and 0.65 (95% CI = 0.40-0.87). In addition, the overall pooled incidence of complications was 0.62 (95% CI = 0.44-0.78), among which that of OLT-PAT group (0.58; 95% CI = 0.20-0.92) was relatively acceptable compared to those of liver transplantation alone (0.61; 95% CI = 0.33-0.85) and liver transplantation with extended bile duct resection (0.78; 95% CI = 0.55-0.94). In comparison to curative resection of cholangiocarcinoma with the 5-year survival rate reported from 20 to 40%, the role of liver transplantation alone is so limited. In the future, attention will be focused on liver transplantation following neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy, which requires a well-designed, prospective randomized controlled study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between the pre-surgical administration of a chemotherapy regime based on irinotecan or oxaliplatin and the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), and the influence of these histological changes on the outcome of patients after surgical intervention. PATIENTS AND METHOD A prospective study which included 45 patients surgically intervened due to colorectal cancer liver metastases between May 2005 and July 2009. Demographic data and the variables before during and after the operation were collected. A specimen of the resection was obtained for histological analysis following the classification parameters of the NAFLD (NASH index) and SOS scale. RESULTS Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was given before the resection in 22 cases (study group) and 23 patients made up the control group (no chemotherapy). Borderline or diagnostic steatohepatitis was observed in 4 of the 7 patients (57.2%) who were given preoperative irinotecan (P=0.001). Seven of the 15 patients (46.7%) treated with oxaliplatin developed a moderate or severe SOS (P=0.002). There were no differences in morbidity or mortality associated to the NAFLD grade, but there was a higher rate of liver complications and longer mean hospital stay in patients with moderate/severe SOS (P=0.004 and P=0.021, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Treatment with irinotecan was significantly associated with an increase in the incidence of steatohepatitis, but did not increase the morbidity or mortality. Patients treated with oxaliplatin had a higher incidence of SOS, an increase in liver complications and a longer mean hospital stay.

Abstract
The evolution of chemotherapeutic regimens that include targeted molecular agents has resulted in a breakthrough in the management of advanced colorectal liver metastasis (CLM), improving the progression-free survival after liver resection, and rendering initially unresectable liver tumors resectable, with reported resection rates ranging from 13% to 51%. In addition, the criteria used for selecting patients for hepatectomy have been expanding because of advances in surgical techniques and improvements in chemotherapy. However, the increasing use of chemotherapy has raised concern about potential hepatotoxicities such as steatosis, chemotherapy-associated steatohepatitis, and sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, and their deleterious effects on postoperative outcome. The present review focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of chemotherapy, strategies for the prevention and diagnosis of chemotherapy-associated liver injury, and the adoption of more aggressive surgical approaches, which have changed the traditional paradigm for CLM.

Abstract
Colorectal adenocarcinoma remains the third most common cause of cancer death in the United States, with an estimated 146,000 new cases and 50,000 deaths annually. Survival is stage dependent, and the presence of liver metastases is a primary determinant in patient survival. Approximately 25% of new cases will present with synchronous colorectal liver metastases (CLM), and up to one-half will develop CLM during the course of their disease. The importance of safe and effective therapies for CLM cannot be overstated. Safe and appropriately aggressive multimodality therapy for CLM can provide most patients with liver-dominant colorectal metastases with extended survival and an improved quality of life.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is integral to the management of patients with advanced colorectal cancer liver metastases. Due to their improved efficacy, modern regimens can sometimes convert unresectable disease to a resectable state. As chemotherapy is often administered prior to hepatic resection, adverse effects on the liver are increasingly being recognized. Investigators have identified a wide spectrum of effects on the underlying liver parenchyma, ranging from mild forms of steatosis to severe steatohepatitis and sinusoidal obstruction syndrome. As the histopathologic definitions of these changes evolve, studies have identified specific patterns of hepatic injury related to the various chemotherapeutic agents. The impact of these changes on perioperative outcome after partial hepatectomy remains controversial. Timing and duration of chemotherapy may play a key role and account for discrepancies in outcomes seen among studies. In this review, we provide an overview of the spectrum of chemotherapy-associated liver injury and discuss its relevance to perioperative management of patients undergoing hepatic resection of colorectal cancer liver metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative chemotherapy containing oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) or irinotecan (FOLFIRI) causes histological liver injury and increases postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). However, information on the aggravation of liver function and its reversibility is scarce. METHODS A total of 55 patients who underwent a hepatectomy after receiving FOLFOX and/or FOLFIRI were included in the present study. Indocyanine green tests were repeatedly performed before hepatectomy for monitoring the change of hepatic functional reserve. RESULTS A significant decrement in the ICG R15 value was observed at 2-4 weeks (12.9%, P = .04), 4-8 weeks (11.4%, P = .01), and 8 or more weeks (11.1%, P = .006) after the last chemotherapy, compared with results documented within 2 weeks (16.8%). However, no significant change was observed among the values obtained at 2-4 weeks, 4-8 weeks, and 8 or more weeks. The individual ICG R15 values at the beginning and end of the cessation period also improved from 17.7% to 11.6% (P = .001). Histological liver injury was associated with larger amounts of operative blood loss but not with morbidity. Neither liver failure nor mortality occurred in the present series. CONCLUSIONS The hepatic functional reserve, represented by the ICG R15 value, improves during the period after chemotherapy cessation. The present study suggests that chemotherapy cessation for at least 2-4 weeks enables an improvement in the hepatic functional reserve, especially among patients with an abnormal ICG R15 value (> 10%) who have received 6 or more cycles of FOLFOX and/or FOLFIRI.
