[A Case of Rectal Cancer in Which Total Pelvic Organ Excision Could Be Avoided by TNT Therapy and Robotic Surgery].

The patient is a 50s year old man. He visited his local doctor with complaints of anal pain and bloody stools, and a rectal examination revealed a tumor on the anterior wall of the rectal canal. CT imaging showed tumors invading the prostate, urethra, and anorectal muscles, and a 3 mm-sized nodule was found in the lungs. The patient was diagnosed as cT4bN1M1a, Stage Ⅳ, and total neoadjuvant chemotherapy was planned as preoperative treatment. The 5 Gy×5 times radiation therapy followed by 5 courses of CAPOX plus BEV as preoperative chemotherapy and CAPOX. CAPOX was administered. After completion of treatment, the colonoscopy showed PR, and MRI showed clear boundary between the prostate and tumor but invasion into the anorectal muscles; CT showed no lung metastasis, and preoperative diagnosis was ycT4bN0M0, ycStage Ⅱ. Robotic-assisted rectal amputation and left lateral lymph node dissection were performed under general anesthesia. Pathologically, the patient was diagnosed as ycT4bN0M0, Stage Ⅱ, and the efficacy was determined as TRG 1(AJCC). Vertical dissection was negative and radical resection was possible.

[A Case of Locally Advanced Sigmoid Colon Cancer Invading the Urinary Bladder Treated with Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Robot Assisted Urinary Bladder-Conserving Surgery].

We report a case of 72s male with locally advanced sigmoid colon cancer. Colonoscopy revealed an advanced sigmoid colon cancer(AV 15 cm, type 2, semi-peripheral, deeper than T3). He was diagnosed as cT4bN2M0, cStage Ⅲc(Japanese Classification of Colorectal, appendiceal, and, Carcinoma, 9th edition), and was given chemotherapy as preoperative treatment. He was treated with CAPOX plus BEV as neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Preoperative diagnosis was ycT4bN0M0, ycStage Ⅱc. The robot assisted high anterior resection and partial bladder resection were performed. The bladder was sutured under robotic assistance. The residual bladder capacity was 100 mL. Postoperative diagnosis was ypT0N0M0, ypStage 0, TRG 0 (AJCC). We experienced a case of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for rectosigmoid colon cancer with bladder invasion, which resulted in pCR.

[Two Cases of Locally Recurrent Rectal Cancer Undergoing Preoperative Chemoradiationtherapy].

Case 1 is a 68-year-old woman with locally recurrent rectal cancer(LRRC)developed 5 years after resection of primary rectal cancer. The tumor seized right lateral side in pelvic. We performed tumor excision after preoperative chemoradiation comprised external beam radiation with oral S-1(tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil). He has been relapse-free for 3 years 3months after surgery. Case 2 is a 74-year-old man with LRRC developed 2 years after resection of primary rectal cancer. The tumor was located dorsal to anastomosis site in pelvic. We performed abdominoperineal resection for LRRC after preoperative chemoradiation with oral S-1. He has been relapse-free for 2 years. It was suggested that preoperative radiotherapy combined with oral FU for local recurrence after rectal cancer may contribute to distant and local control.
