[A Case of Rectal Cancer with Multiple Pulmonary and Liver Metastases Could Be Resected through Chemotherapy].

The patient was a 47-year-old man, whose chief complaint was melena. He visited a nearby hospital, and further evaluation showed rectal cancer invading the prostate, with multiple lung and liver metastases. The clinical diagnosis was cT4b(prostate), cN1, cM1b(H2, PUL2), cStage IV . We performed colostomy in the transverse colon prior to chemotherapy. He was administered 1 course of mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab and 7 courses of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab. The primary tumor showed PR. The liver metastases were localized and shrunken, while the lung metastases disappeared. Approximately 6 months after the start of chemotherapy, a laparoscopic total pelvic exenteration and ileal conduit were performed following the diagnosis of ycT4b(prostate), ycN1, ycM1a(H2), ycStage IV . About 3 months later, a partial resection of the left liver lobes(S1 and S5/S8)was performed laparoscopically. He has been cancer-free for 8 months.
