Phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin (p‐mTOR) plays a crucial role in the process of cancer progression. Common gene mutations of colorectal cancer lead to the activation of the PI3k/Akt/mTOR pathway. In this study, we determined whether p‐mTOR expression in colorectal liver metastases is a predictive marker of prognosis following liver resection.
