Transplantation möjlighet vid kolorektala levermetastaser
(2020) In Läkartidningen 17-18.- Abstract (Swedish)
- Surgical treatment of liver metastases from colorectal cancer (CLM) is the only treatment option with curative potential; however, only about 15% to 20% of the patients seen at major hospitals are candidates for surgical resection. In a prospective study of liver transplantation (Ltx) for non-resectable CLM a 5-year overall survival rate of 60 % has been shown. We now plan to evaluate if the addition of Ltx to conventional treatment of non-resectable, non-ablatable CLM increases overall survival compared to best established treatment. This will be done in a randomized study, primarily utilizing liver grafts from extended criteria donors not utilized for approved indications.
