Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and breast cancer liver metastasis may be associated with poor outcomes. Emerging locoregional therapies can be given in outpatient settings or with short hospital stays, to provide local control, support quality of life, preserve liver function, and potentially prolong survival. This review discusses retrospective studies suggesting potential benefits of locoregional treatment of breast cancer liver metastasis. Future prospective studies are needed to demonstrate efficacy and optimize patient selection.
乳腺癌是女性中最常见的癌症,乳腺癌肝转移可能与不良预后相关。新出现的局部区域疗法可以在门诊环境中进行,或只需短暂住院,以实现局部控制、支持生活质量、保护肝功能并有可能延长生存期。本综述讨论了回顾性研究,这些研究提示了乳腺癌肝转移局部区域治疗的潜在益处。未来需要进行前瞻性研究以证明疗效并优化患者选择。
