Management of Synchronous Metastatic Colorectal Cancer With Recurrent Liver Metastasis

The management of colorectal liver metastases has seen significant advancements over the past decade. These advancements include improved imaging techniques such as intraoperative ultrasound, new chemotherapy drugs and routes of administration, immunotherapy, and novel surgical approaches. Although the utilization of robotic surgery in hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) surgery has increased, its application in liver metastasis surgery remains an area of exploration. This video aims to showcase the feasibility and benefits of minimally invasive surgery in managing colorectal liver metastasis cases. Presented here is a 77-year-old man who underwent robotic surgery for the management of synchronous metastatic colorectal cancer. Unfortunately, during surveillance, a liver mass located in segment 5 was found. The patient subsequently underwent a robotic wedge resection. The minimally invasive approach holds great promise in enhancing surgical outcomes and patient care. Further research and advancements in this field will undoubtedly contribute to its wider adoption and continued success.
