RESUMEN
The impact of colonic stenting on long-term prognosis has not yet been clarified. We compared background factors, progression-free survival, and overall survival between patients with stents(stent group)who underwent surgery after colonic stenting as a bridge to surgery and patients without stents(non-stent group)who underwent emergency surgery for left-sided colorectal cancer ileus. There was no difference between the 2 groups in the induction of adjuvant chemotherapy, but the use of oxaliplatin-base was highly introduced in the stent group(p=0.03). The 5-year DFS rates were 55.1% and 70.3%(p=0.21)and the 5-year OS rates were 90.7%and 70%(p=0.35)in the stent and non-stent groups, respectively. In the present study, colon stent placement did not affect long-term prognosis.

We experienced a case of low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm complicated by pseudomyxoma peritonei that was successfully treated with cytoreductive surgery and early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy. The patient was a 26- year-old man with massive ascites and a swollen appendix on the computed tomography(CT). The appendix was a cystic mass of 5 cm in size. The entire parietal peritoneum, omentum, stomach, spleen, gall bladder, and entire colon were covered with numerous mucous nodules. Total colectomy, total gastrectomy, splenectomy, cholecystectomy, total omentectomy, parietal peritonectomy, ileostomy, and intraperitoneal irrigation were performed. The pathological diagnosis was low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm. Postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy with cisplatin and mitomycin C was performed. A residual tumor was found on the dorsal side of the hepatoduodenal ligament 3 months postoperation on the CT. The residual tumor was successfully excised via a concomitant resection of the hepatic caudate lobe. Postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy was then performed. No recurrence was found at 8 months postoperation. The addition of early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy improved the patient's quality of life in a short period. This could be one of the treatment options.
