Case 2. Radiation lobectomy of the right lobe for colorectal cancer metastases.

Case 2

(A) Baseline MRI scan demonstrates large hepatic metastases confined to the right lobe. Following treatment, significant response and dramatic hypertrophy of segments 2/3 are observed. (B) 3D volume reconstructions of the right lobe (including 4) and segments 2/3 demonstrate significant FLR increase from 17% to 41%. (C) The patient underwent an extended right trisegmentectomy and is free of liver disease three years following surgery. (This figure appears in colour on the web.)
