[A 10-Year Survivor with Multidisciplinary Treatment for Pancreatic Carcinoma That Recurred 17 Months after...

Postoperative recurrence of invasive pancreatic ductal carcinoma(PC)has a poor prognosis. We experienced a case of PC that relapsed 17 months after pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD)and survived for more than 10 years after PD. A 51-year-old man underwent PD in December 2011(pT3pN1bM0, pStage Ⅱb). Gemcitabine(GEM)16 cycles were performed as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and a 1 cm nodule was found in the liver on abdominal CT scan, and partial liver resection was performed. After that, adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was performed for 12 months. Abdominal CT scan revealed abdominal lymph node metastasis, and radiation therapy(39.6 Gy)was requested from another hospital. Then, the combination therapy of 5-FU/l-LV plus L-OHP(or CPT-11)was started in September 2014. To date, a total of 131 cycles of chemotherapy have been given. 10 years and 5 months after pancreaticoduodenectomy and 9 years after hepatectomy, although recurrence around the superior mesenteric artery plexus was observed, outpatient visits are continued.
