[Long-Term Suppression with First-Line Chemotherapy(FOLFIRI plus BV)for Peritoneal Metastasis].

A 72-year-old man underwent right hemicolectomy for transverse colon cancer(pT4aN1aM0, Stage ⅢB), after which he received adjuvant chemotherapy(capecitabine plus oxaliplatin[CAPOX])for 6 months. Three years after the first surgery, FDG-PET/CT revealed a tumor in the abdomen. He underwent a tumorectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy(CAPOX plus bevacizumab[BV])performed for 6 months. Two years after a tumorectomy, the CEA level rose again. He was diagnosed peritoneal metastasis again. A central venous(CV)port was implanted for access to the right internal jugular vein, and he received systemic chemotherapy(fluorouracil, Leucovorin, and irinotecan[FOLFIRI]plus BV)as an outpatient. One year after this recurrence, no peritoneal dissemination was detected by CT. Thereafter, total 49 courses of FOLFIRI plus BV were introduced, but chemotherapy was discontinued due to CV port-related infection. Three months later, low back pain appeared and became a diagnosis of spondylodiscitis. He had surgery, but follow-up CT performed 8 years after the first surgery detected multiple liver metastasis. It was considered necessary to take infection control measures during long-term chemotherapy.
