Abstract:
We report a 73-year-old male patient who underwent low anterior resection for rectal cancer (Stage IIIb). Nine months after the surgery, multiple metastases of liver, lung, brain and lymph node were detected. He was treated with FOLFOX4 and FOLFIRI though lung metastases progressed and caused dyspnea. Cetuximab plus irinotecan therapy was dramatically effective, which improved his quality of life for over 10 months.
