Abstract: 【Abstract】〓Objective〓To assess the value of the liver resection in breast cancer patients with liver metastasis. Methods〓Between March 2001 and July 2009, a total of 1357 patients underwent breast cancer surgery in Taishan People's Hospital were enrolled. Among them, 59 patients were confirmed as liver metastasis. All patients were assigned into: (A) accepted liver resection (n=11); (B) only with conservative treatment (n=48). The survival rate and survival time after liver resection were measured. Results〓The mean survival time of A group was 24.44±16.23 months. There was a statistically advance between our research and traditional therapies. The mean survival time in groups A were significantly longer than that in group B (P<0.05). Conclusion〓Our study suggested that liver resection results in advanced survival time for metastasis breast cancer patients, especially in patients with solitary liver metastasis.
