[Two Cases of Resectable Liver Metastasis from Colorectal Cancer with Pathological Complete Response after...

A 57-year-old male, who had received a laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer 12 months ago, was diagnosed a resectable liver metastasis from rectal cancer by computed tomography(CT). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab and FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab was performed for liver metastasis. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, partial response(PR)was proved on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(RECIST)and partial resection of the liver was conducted. Pathological findings showed no viable cancer cells. He is alive without recurrence 5 years after the surgery. A 70-year-old female, who had received a laparoscopic high anterior resection for rectal cancer 17 months ago, was diagnosed a resectable liver metastasis from rectal cancer by CT. SOX plus bevacizumab was performed for liver metastasis. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, PR was proved on the RECIST and right hepatic lobectomy was performed. Pathological findings showed no viable cancer cells and she is alive without recurrence 4 years after the surgery. We expected neoadjuvant chemotherapy for resectable liver metastasis might be an option of treatment.
