[Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Associated with Bevacizumab during Chemotherapy for Clinical Stage â £ Sigmoid Colon Cancer-A Case Report].

ABSTRACT

The case is a 59‒year‒old woman. A detailed examination of fecal occult blood revealed a diagnosis of cStage Ⅳ sigmoid colon cancer cT3N1M1b(liver H2, hilar liver and celiac artery lymph nodes). After excision of the primary lesion, decided to give chemotherapy. The gene test was RAS gene mutation negative and EGFR positive, and mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab (pani)was started as the first‒line treatment. Imaging tests at the end of 13 courses showed that the maximum diameter of liver metastases was reduced from 54 mm to 16 mm, and CEA was normalized from 93.9 ng/mL. However, metastasis was found in the hilar lymph nodes, it was judged that hepatectomy is not indicated, radiofrequency ablation therapy was performed. But FOLFIRI plus pani was restarted because metastatic liver tumor relapsed on CT 5 months later. After 6 courses, she felt tired, so I consulted her and changed to TAS‒102 plus bevacizumab. Sudden headache and vomiting appear during 3 courses, head CT revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage. No brain metastases or organic lesions such as cerebral aneurysms and stenotic lesions, the relationship with bevacizumab was strongly suspected.
