Two-stage hepatectomy (TSH) with portal vein embolization (PVE) is associated with high morbidity and mortality and may result in liver failure due to insufficient future liver remnant. The objectives of this investigation were to evaluate the short-term outcomes of patients with colorectal cancer liver metastasis who underwent TSH with PVE, and to critically review the selection criteria for TSH-PVE.
