[A case of colon cancer with long-term survival treated by resection of recurrence on the rectum and chemotherapy for lung metastasis].

A 69-year-old male was operated on sigmoidectomy for sigmoid colon cancer (SS, N2, H0, P0, M0, stage IIIb) 7 years ago. Two years later, he was diagnosed for rectal cancer and bilateral lung metastases by TBLB. We performed Mile's operation, and the rectal focus was pathologically diagnosed with a recurrence of sigmoid colon cancer. After surgery, chemotherapy with FOLFOX was started for bilateral lung metastases, resulting in CR during the 22 months. But bilateral lung metastases were exacerbated, and then we administered several other chemotherapies. Five years have passed since chemotherapy started, although the focuses tended to progress. Right now, he has been a chemotherapy outpatient for last 5 years.
