ABSTRACT
A 47-year-old woman with a complaint of weight loss for the past 5 months was referred to our hospital. Colonoscopy revealed advanced rectal cancer 20 cm from the anal verge. The patient had left hydronephrosis caused by ureteral invasion. Firstly, we performed transverse colostomy and left nephrostomy. After 8 courses of capecitabine, oxaliplatin plus bevacizumab( CAPOX plus Bmab)therapy, colonoscopy and computed tomography revealed shrinkage of both the primary and metastatic lesions. Laparoscopic high anterior resection was performed, and the left ureter was successfully preserved. The patient received chemotherapy after surgery. Neither local recurrence nor enlargement of metastases has been observed 8 months after surgery.
