Background: The presence of extrahepatic disease, bilobar disease or greater than four hepatic lesions were once considered contraindications to hepatectomy for colorectal metastases but are being reconsidered. We reviewed our experience with resection of extrahepatic disease (EHD) at the time of hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer to determine the impact on perioperative and long-term outcome. Methods: The medical records of 441 patients who underwent hepatectomy for colorectal cancer metastases from 1989 to 2010 were reviewed. Demographics, clinicopathologic characteristics, and outcomes were compared between those with and without extrahepatic disease. Overall survival curves were constructed using the Kaplan Meier method and co...
