Pre-transplant metabolic tumor volume predicts recurrence following liver transplantation for colorectal metastasis: A multicenter study

Liver transplant (LT) for colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) is increasingly popular, yet the ideal selection criteria remain unknown. Pre-transplant PET metabolic tumor volume (MTV) has been described as predicting recurrence, with a proposed cut-off of MTV ≥70 cm3. This approach has not been validated.
