ABSTRACT
Colorectal cancer has been one of the leading malignancies with a high incidence and a great mortality in the world, Liver is the most common site of metastases.For nonresectable colorectal liver metastases(nrCRLM), no palliative therapy brings any change of terminal death.With limited sample sizes but long enough follow-ups, a series of clinical trials have confirmed that selected nrCRLM patients may be cured by liver transplantation(LT). However, there are great challenges of donor shortage, recipient criteria and high recurrence rate after LT.For promoting the curative effect and quality control, the authors elaborated upon various major issues of LT for nrCRLM, including non-resectability of colorectal liver metastases, chemotherapy-associated liver injuries, prognostic factors, surgical approaches and post-transplant therapies.
