Review Title: Hepatic metastasis from breast cancer
Abstract: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and breast cancer liver metastasis may be associated with poor outcomes. Emerging locoregional therapies can be given in outpatient settings or with short hospital stays, to provide local control, support quality of life, preserve liver function, and potentially prolong survival. This review discusses retrospective studies suggesting potential benefits of locoregional treatment of breast cancer liver metastasis. Future prospective studies are needed to demonstrate efficacy and optimize patient selection. © 2020 BMJ Publishing Group. All rights reserved.
