However, at 4 years and 9 months after the initial operation, CT showed a recurrence of Douglas pouch peritoneal dissemination without any other obvious metastasis. Laparoscopic low anterior resection of the rectum and hysterectomy were performed. Here, we encountered a case that could be radically resected for peritoneal dissemination twice after the colon cancer surgery.The treatment for peritoneal dissemination of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)remains to be established. Therefore, peritoneal recurrence ofHCC has a poor prognosis. Here, we report a case ofperitoneal recurrence ofHCC after a liver resection. The patient underwent surgery for peritoneal recurrence 5 times already and had taken sorafenib for 3 years. No recurrence occurred for 55 months during the last follow-up. Therefore, multidisciplinary treatment for peritoneal recurrence of HCC, including surgical resection, may improve prognosis.We report a case of splenic lymph node recurrence 7 years after a distal bile duct carcinoma. A 70s man underwent pylorus ring-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for distal bile duct carcinoma in 20XX. The pathological diagnosis was T2N0M0, Stage Ⅱ(Japanese Classification of the Biliary Tract Cancers 5th edition). Then, S-1 was administered as an adjuvant chemo- therapy 1month later and continued for 3 years. At 7 years postoperatively, the serum CEA level was elevated(CEA 77.0 ng/ mL), and FDG-PET showed high-grade accumulation in the splenic hilum lymph node, which was diagnosed as lymph node recurrence. Because it was a solitary metastasis and had a long recurrence-free period, tumor resection was not performed, and the patient opted for a nonsurgicaltreatment. No recurrence occurred to date. Recurrent resection is rarely performed for splenic lymph node metastasis.An 80-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of jaundice and fatigue. Abdominal computed tomography(CT) scan revealed an extrahepatic bile duct tumor, and biliary cytology detected adenocarcinoma; therefore, subtotal stomachpreserving pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. Histological analysis showed that the tumor was a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma without lymph node metastasis. Two years after the initial surgery, blood examination detected an elevated serum CA19-9 level and submucosal tumor which is 2.5 cm diameter with an ulcer at the gastrojejunostomy anastomosis. Tumor biopsy was performed, and histological analysis revealed a recurrent cholangiocarcinoma. The tumor directly invaded the transverse colon mesentery; therefore, distal gastrectomy and right hemicolectomy were performed. The patient survived 12 months postoperatively without recurrence. Gastric metastasis from cholangiocarcinoma rarely occurs. Intraoperative exposure of bile juice may have caused gastric metastasis in this case.Currently, chemotherapy against unresectable advanced gastric cancer is progressing with the development new drugs and due to results of several clinical trials. Here, we reported a case of long-term survival of gastric cancer with multiple liver and lymph node metastases. A 68-year-old man was diagnosed with gastric cancer and Virchow lymph node, para-aortic lymph node, and multiple liver metastases at another hospital. He was referred to our hospital from Yamashita Naika Syokakika. We administrated 4 courses of S-1 plus CDDP. The main tumor and all metastatic lesions were significantly reduced. Subsequently, total gastrectomy, partial liver resection, and left neck and para-aortic lymph node resection(conversion surgery)were performed. Rigosertib PLK inhibitor The cancer cell was remnant at the main tumor and para-gastric lymph node. No cancer cells were detected in another lesion(R0 resection). Postoperatively, only S-1 was administered. However, 28 months after undergoing gastrectomy, liver metastasis occurred. Therefore, S-1 plus oxaliplatin, paclitaxel plus ramucirumab, and CPT-11 plus CDDP were administered. Liver metastases again increased and decreased, respectively. However, 46 months after gastrectomy, liver metastasis recurred and nivolumab was administered. Subsequently, liver metastases disappeared. At 55 months after gastrectomy, rectal resection was performed against rectal cancer and partial liver resection against liver metastases. Cancer cells were not detected in the resected specimens.A woman in her 40s was hospitalizedfor jaundice. Six years before, she hadbeen diagnosedwith synchronous esophageal andgastric cancers andhadund ergone subtotal esophagectomy andtotal gastrectomy, accompaniedby reconstruction with the pedicled jejunum. Multimodal imaging revealed a tumor at the pancreatic head, probably pancreatic cancer, which induced severe stenosis of the intrapancreatic bile duct. Scraping cytology findings of the lesion via the percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage(PTCD)route strengthenedthe suspicion. In the image, although no obvious invasion of the major vessels or apparent distant metastases were detected, an abnormal shadow was found continuously lining the main tumor andpara -aortic region, which was a contraindication for curative resection. Therefore, we performed neoadjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus S-1. After 3 courses, the lesion size reduced notably, and pancreatoduodenectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was pancreatic cancer(ph, ypT3, ypN1a, ypM0, ypStage ⅡB). Except for pancreatic fistulas(Clavien-Dindo Ⅲa), the postoperative clinical course was uneventful, andshe was dischargedon postoperative day 27. To date, the patient is alive without recurrence and is undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1.A 50-year-old woman was referred to our hospital due to breast cancer with multiple liver metastasis diagnosed by CT scan. Laboratory findings showed liver dysfunction(T-Bil 7.6mg/dL)with marked elevation of tumor markers(CEA 727.9 ng/mL). Breast tumor biopsy showed an invasive ductal carcinoma(scirrhous type), ER(+), PgR(-), and HER2(3+). Combination therapy with docetaxel, carboplatin and, trastuzumab was administered after the end of 1 course of weekly paclitaxel plus bevacizumab regimen. The patient maintained a good condition without liver dysfunction 8 months after the first visit. Follow-up CT scan showed partial response of breast and hepatic tumors. Our case suggests that careful chemotherapy can improve the prognosis of breast cancer with liver metastasis even if a patient is in an icteric condition.
