Article Title: Consideration of tumor genomics in the management of synchronous colorectal liver metastases
Abstract: Colorectal cancer with synchronous metastatic disease to the liver represents a particular challenge in multidisciplinary cancer care. Optimal management involves a combination of surgical resection, systemic, regional and/or targeted therapies; however, the order of and timing of specific therapies requires a nuanced understanding of the disease biology including tumor genomics. In the following article, we conducted a narrative review of the literature to critically examine existing data on the impact of tumor genomics in synchronous colorectal liver metastasis management. We provide a qualitative synthesis of the available literature and identify areas of particular interest for investigation moving forward. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
