Chemotherapy With Bevacizumab Does Not Affect Liver Regeneration After Portal Vein Embolization in the Treatment of Colorectal Liver Metastases by Zorzi, Daria

“…Background Blockage of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in murine models has been shown to impair liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab (monoclonal antibody anti-VEGF) on liver regeneration after portal vein embolization (PVE) in the treatment of colorectal liver metastases and its possible effect on postoperative outcome after major liver resection. …”
