Congratulations to the team on the latest publication demonstrating acceptable safety and survival outcomes of combined HR+ablation in multiple CRLM! Great effort lead by star fellow @MikeWach_MD!

Resection, TACE, HAI, systemic therapies, even transplant...There are many options for patients with multiple CRLM. Combined HR+ablation is one more tool in the armamentarium and should be considered when approaching these patients. @hpbjournal @LabTohme
