文摘We read with great interest the recently published article of Boudjema and collaborators(1).The authors evaluated the safety and efficacy of delayed resection(DR)versus simultaneous resection(SR)for patients with initially resectable synchronous colorectal cancer liver metastases(CRC-SLM).The aforementioned study(METASYNC)was the first randomized controlled trial comparing two resection strategies for CRC-SLM.In the literature,large retrospective studies didn’t seem to favor one type of treatment,particularly when comparisons are based on a propensity match score(2).
