Patients with desmoplastic (angiogenic) histopathological growth pattern (HGP) colorectal liver metastases (CLM) might derive more benefit from bevacizumab-based chemotherapy than those with replacement (non-angiogenic) HGP. This study investigated the association of HGP with the immune phenotype (IP) and clinical outcome after liver resection.
