Colorectal Cancer (CRC)
Conditions
Brief summary
Colorectal cancer (CRC) often metastasizes to the liver, with synchronous metastases observed in 20% of cases. Surgical resection is the primary treatment, but the impact of simultaneous and staged resections on clinical outcomes remains unclear. This study employs propensity score matching (PSM) in a nationwide survey to compare clinical characteristics, complications, and survival, providing valuable insights for optimizing the management of colorectal liver metastases.
