Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

While there is promising survival data for cryosurgery of colorectal liver metastases, local recurrence following cryoablation remains a problem. We aimed to compare morbidity and mortality, as well as the recurrence pattern and survival after liver resection and cryotherapy (alone or in combination with resection) for liver metastases.
