Tailoring the management of nonparasitic liver cysts.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The objective of this pilot study was to investigate the potential for long-term overall survival (OS) after liver transplantation for colorectal liver metastases (CLMs). BACKGROUND:Patients with nonresectable CLMs have poor prognosis, and few survive beyond 5 years. CLMs are currently considered an absolute...
