Background/Aim. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of routine lymphadenectomy of the hepatic basin on the duration of the liver resection for colorectal carcinoma (CRC) metachronous liver metastases. Methods. A total of 50 patients with CRC metachronous liver metastases underwent liver resection with routine hepatic basin lymphadenectomy. Results. Larger volume of metastases (measured in millilitres mL), the number of affected segments, and the number of metastases, as well the diameter of the largest lesion (in millimetres mm), determine the duration of the liver resection itself, and the surgical procedure overall. The duration of lymphadenectomy was 25 55 minutes (32.2 minutes on average). Conclusion. Routine lymphadenectomy of the hepatic basin following liver resection for CRC metachronous liver metastases, minimally prolongs the duration of the operation.
