[A case or resection of synchronous multiple liver metastases from rectal cancer after FOLFOX4 therapy]

A 7 0-year-old man with multiple liver metastases from rectal cancer was admitted to our hospital. From imaging inspection, a resection was determined to be difficult, so he was treated with FOLFOX4 therapy. After ten courses of FOLFOX4, the liver metastases showed 52% reduction in size and were judged to be PR. Therefore low anterior resection of the rectum, left lobectomy of the liver and partial resection of the liver(S7, S8)were performed. He was able to undergo curative surgery after FOLFOX4 therapy.
