[A Long-Term Survival Case of Multiple Liver Metastases from Colon Cancer Treated with Intensive Multimodality Therapy].

A 60-year-old man diagnosed with sigmoid colon cancer was admitted to our hospital. A CT scan revealed multiple liver metastases. The patient was administered 15 courses of FOLFIRI chemotherapy and 15 courses of FOLFIRI plus Cmab chemotherapy. After this treatment, multiple liver metastases disappeared, and laparoscopic resection of the sigmoid colon was performed. Two months later, a recurrent lesion was found in the liver segment(S1), and 5 courses of FOLFIRI plus Cmab chemotherapy were performed. Although the CEA level decreased, the tumor size remained unchanged. Therefore, partial resection of the liver was performed, followed by 18 courses of FOLFIRI chemotherapy. After that, the patient was followed for a year without chemotherapy. However, about 1 year later, recurrence was observed in liver segments S5 and S6. A right lobectomy was performed for these 2 lesions, and then 16 more courses of FOLFIRI chemotherapy were performed. The chemotherapy was discontinued, and the patient was then followed up as an outpatient without chemotherapy; there has been no recurrence.
