Abstract

We herein report the case of a patient with a cecal cancer with simultaneous liver, spleen, and ovarian metastases as well as peritoneal dissemination who achieved a long-term survival. The patient was a 67-year-old female. Ileocecal resection with partial hepatectomy, splenectomy, simple total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and resection of the peritoneal dissemination were performed. The final diagnosis was Stage IV (T4a, N1, M1b[H1, P3, OTH]). Adjuvant chemotherapy was administered, but abdominal computed tomography(CT)revealed a metachronous liver metastasis 41 months later. We performed partial hepatectomy, and the patient continued adjuvant chemotherapy. The patient is currently alive and disease-free 30 months after the last operation, 72 months after the initial surgery.
