الوصف: An 80-year-old man presenting with abdominal distension was admitted to our hospital. He was diagnosed with sigmoid cancer with multiple liver and lung metastases. We first performed a sigmoidectomy to avoid obstruction, and then initiated chemotherapy with S-1(120mg/day). The tumor showed a complete clinical response after 10 courses, but we had to change the regimen after 18 courses because of growth of the lung metastases. After 10 courses of capecitabine(4,200mg/ day)treatment, we again observed growth of the lung metastases; a new nodule, which was also considered to be a metastasis, appeared on the abdominal wall. We then decided to administer mFOLFOX6(5-fluorouracil+Leucovorin+oxaliplatin) after the patient had received oral anticancer drugs for 3 years 4 month. In conclusion, oral chemotherapy drugs may prevent tumor growth over a long period and improve quality of life(QOL)in elderly patients with Stage IV colon cancer.
