ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate hepatectomy for liver metastasis in breast cancer patients. Methods From May 1997 to May 2000, 18 primary breast cancer patients with metachronous liver metastases underwent hepatectomy. The clinicopathologic features and surgical results were analyzed. Results The actuarial 1,3-year survival rates after hepatic resection were 100% and 83. 3% for patients with solitary metastasis, and 90.9% and 54.5% for those with multiple foci. Conclusions Posthepatectomy long term survival was correlated with the number of foci in postmastectomy breast cancer patients suffering from heterochronous liver metastasis. Tumor size and TNM stage of breast cancer were not correlated with the survival. Aggressive surgery helps to prolong the survival.
