Abstract

A 65-year-old woman with cecum cancer underwent laparoscopic right colectomy.After 3 years, she was diagnosed with a local recurrence with small bowel invasion and underwent tumor resection.One year later, she had a re-recurrent lesion involving her right iliac bone.After one year of chemotherapy, a PET-CT showed no other abdominal lesions suggestive of malignancy.She underwent resection of the re-recurrent tumor involving the right iliac bone and R0 resection was achieved. She was able to ambulate postoperatively and returned home.In selected cases, extended surgery including bone resection can be an option for the local recurrence of advanced colon cancer.
