According to number and combination of metastatic sites. Median overall survival (mOS) in months and estimated 5-year OS-rate for resected patients calculated from diagnosis of metastatic disease (mOS mCRC) and from 1st resection (mOS 1st resection), and recurrence-free survival (mRFS 1st resection) and 1-year RFS-rate calculated from first resection.

mOS = median overall survival from metastatic colorectal cancer diagnosis, mOS 1st resection = median overall survival from first resection, mRFS 1st R0/1-resection = median relapse-free survival from first resection with R0/1 and/or local ablative therapy (LAT), NE = no estimate.
