Excerpt

Numerous studies have proposed risk-scoring systems after hepatectomy for resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) to guide perioperative treatment. Recent developments of precision oncology have demonstrated that molecular markers such as RAS, BRAF V600E, PIK3CA, SMAD4, and TP53 predict poor prognosis.1,2 However, since all of them were analyzed by tissue-based polymerase chain reaction or next-generation sequencing, it was not possible to timely incorporate the information regarding genomic alterations into guiding perioperative treatment at time of diagnosis for CRLM. …
