[A Case Report of Huge Liver Synchronous Metastases of Colon Cancer that Occurred after Right Liver Lobectomy].

We report a patient who experienced a weight loss, general fatigue, and appetite loss and had huge hepatic metastases of colon cancer after right lobectomy for hepatic stone. After 2 courses of treatment with high-dose hepatic arterial infusion of 5-FU (HDHAI; 5-FU 6 g/week), the appetite loss decreased, and low anterior resection was performed. Unfortunately, the other symptoms continued, and she received 5 additional courses of HDHAI during about 6 months. Finally, all of the symptoms disappeared, and she could receive systemic chemotherapy and HAI. Bone metastasis at vertebra TH 9 was observed about 9 months after radiotherapy, and local recurrence at the anastomosis site was observed at about 1 year 1 months after radiotherapy. Both the metastasis and local recurrence were well controlled. Although the lung metastases were growing slowly (number and size), the patient was well enough to go to the hospital on her own and her weight loss almost disappeared. If liver metastases were the most threatening factor of life, HDHAI may be effective for the improvement of symptoms.
