Eighteen tumor samples from 11 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were cytogenetically analyzed after shortterm culturing. Of the 13 metastases examined, 11 were from lymph nodes, 1 from the peritoneum and 1 from the lung. In 5 of the 11 patients, matched samples from the primary tumor and l
A significant number of patients who undergo complete resection of colorectal carcinoma develop pulmonary metastases.

One hundred fifty-eight procedures were performed on 136 patients with unresectable hepatic metastases using hepatic cryotherapy to ablate the tumors. The median age was 62 years. Patients included 90 males and 46 females. Fifty-eight patients had synchronous metastases, 55 had bilobar lesions, and
## Background and objectives: After curative resection of hepatic colorectal metastases, 10-20% of patients experience a resectable hepatic recurrence. we wanted to assess the expected risk-to-benefit ratio in comparison to first hepatectomy and to determine the prognostic factors associated with s
