Article Synopsis
- Portal vein embolization (PVE) can allow the removal of liver metastases from colorectal cancer, but the role of pre-embolization bevacizumab on liver regeneration and tumor growth is unclear.
- A study evaluated CT scans of 109 patients before and after PVE, comparing results from those treated with bevacizumab and those without, alongside a control group without PVE.
- The findings showed that while PVE led to significant increases in liver volume, there was no notable difference in tumor growth between the chemotherapy groups, indicating that although liver regeneration occurred post-PVE, tumor progression was a concern.
