[Curative Resection of Sigmoid Colon Cancer with Multiple Liver Metastases by Long-Term Multidisciplinary Treatment].

A male patient in his 80s underwent colonic stenting for obstructive sigmoid colon cancer with multiple liver metastases. With systemic chemotherapy for approximately 1 year, the liver metastasis disappeared, so laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy was performed for the primary lesion. No recurrence was observed for a while, although CT revealed liver metastasis in the liver S4, and radiofrequency ablation was performed. Radiation therapy was performed for the liver metastasis of liver S2 that subsequently appeared. After a recurrence-free period of approximately 2 years, a rapid regrowth of liver metastasis in liver S2 was observed. Thus, 4 years and 3 months after the initial diagnosis, lateral segmentectomy of the liver was performed. Five years have passed since the first visit, and he is alive without recurrence. The patient had obstructive colorectal cancer with unresectable liver metastasis, and as the obstruction was released by a colonic stent, systemic chemotherapy was prioritized. Hence, liver metastasis was controlled, and the primary lesion was resected. Furthermore, for the liver metastasis that appeared later, various loco-regional cancer therapies were provided to achieve a cancer-free state.
