Local treatment strategies in oligometastatic colorectal cancer
摘要
Management of oligometastatic disease in colorectal cancer is increasingly focused on local treatment strategies that can significantly enhance survival outcomes. The integration of surgical resection, thermal ablation and catheter-directed therapies, as well as ablative radiotherapy, and the combination with systemic therapy are critical components of a multidisciplinary approach to optimize patient care. The purpose of this manuscript is to review current definitions of oligometastatic cancer and summarize the current literature describing treatment and outcomes of local therapy in patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer.
