[A Case of Long-Term Survival after Multidisciplinary Treatment for Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine Carcinoma].

A 55-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for examination and treatment of a transverse colon tumor detected at a nearby hospital. After CT, FDG-PET, and laparotomy biopsy, he was diagnosed with neuroendocrine cancer(Ki-67 index 40%)without distant metastasis. He underwent transverse colectomy. The pathological diagnosis was transverse colon neuroendocrine cancer(Ki-67 index 24.7%). Six courses of carboplatin and etoposide therapy as adjuvant chemotherapy were administered. Seven months after surgery, he developed lung metastasis that was surgically removed by partial lung resection. Eighteen months after the initial surgery, liver metastasis developed in S5 and S8. A right hepatic lobectomy was performed and there has been no recurrence after hepatectomy. The patient remains alive at 3 years and 4 months after initial treatment.
