RESUMEN
We report a case of gastric metastasis of lung cancer performed gastrectomy for the primary foci. A 70s woman was diagnosed as having right lung cancer and underwent right lower lobectomy and lymph node dissection. The histological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma (pT4, N2, M0). Four years later, positron emission tomography (PET)-CT revealed a tumor in the stomach and para-aortic lymph nodes swelling. The submucosal tumor was showed in the cardia by endoscopic examination. Biopsy showed a papillary adenocarcinoma. With the diagnosis of gastric metastasis from lung cancer, she was operated on. A proximal gastrectomy was carried out. The histopathological examination demonstrated papillary adenocarcinoma similar to that of the lung cancer with lymph node metastasis. No postoperative complications occurred and she was discharged from the hospital. Since then, she was treated with adjuvant chemotherapy as an outpatient.

We report a case of multiple liver metastases of rectsigmoid colon cancer treated with systemic chemotherapy and hepatectomy. A 40s woman had undergone anterior resection of rectum for rectsigmoid colon cancer with multiple liver metastases. Then FOLFOX4 regimen was performed fifteen times, and FOLFIRI regimen was performed eleven times. After chemotherapy was enforced, an abdominal CT revealed that liver metastases were reduced in size (effect judgment of partial response). Hepatic resection of the right lobe and partial of S2 segment were performed. Pathological findings of the resected liver revealed no residual cancer cells, indicating that the histological effect of chemotherapy was complete response (CR).
