Until recently, the prognosis for patients with liver metastases was poor; only where considerable expertise and resources were available were the results at all satisfactory. Over the last few years, however, there has been considerable research carried out on the natural history, diagnosis, medical and surgical treatments of hepatic metastases and the results of this research are incorporated into this book.
