[A Case of Liver Metastasis of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma That Achieved Clinical Complete Response after Gemcitabine and Cisplatin Combination Chemotherapy].

We report a case of liver metastasis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that achieved clinical complete response after gemcitabine(GEM)and cisplatin(CDDP)combination chemotherapy. The patient was a 69-year-old man who was diagnosed with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with hilar invasion and intrahepatic metastasis(cT4N0M0, Stage ⅣA)and was initially treated with right trisegmentectomy with left portal vein resection, lymph node dissection, and reconstruction of the left portal vein and biliary tract after transhepatic portal vein embolization(PTPE). S-1 was administered continuously as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and the patient showed no signs of recurrence. Three years after the surgery, a CT scan showed LDA 10mm in diameter in the middle area of the remnant liver. We suspected liver metastasis when both serum CA19-9 and DUPAN-2 levels were elevated with the increasing size of LDA; liver biopsy was then performed, and he was diagnosed with liver metastasis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. After 3 courses of combination chemotherapy containing GEM and CDDP, a CT scan revealed that the liver metastasis reduced in size, and PR was achieved based on the RECIST standard. After 12 courses, the liver metastasis disappeared, and the patient had achieved CR based on the RECIST standard. The patient has received S-1 following the combination chemotherapy and survived for 6 years since initial treatment without any other metastatic lesions.
