Abstract
- The patient was a 54-year-old male at the time of initial examination. He was aware of numbness and weakness in the left hemisphere of his body and came to see the hospital. He was diagnosed with brain metastasis of lung cancer and started treatment(cT2N0M1[Brain]). He underwent gamma knife for the head lesion and nivolumab for the lung lesion. The patient's lesions shrank with the success of the medical treatment, but recurred with small intestinal metastasis. He underwent a partial resection of the small intestine and was treated again with nivolumab, which resulted in a complete response. He is currently alive without recurrence. We have experienced a very rare case of recurrence-free survival after treatment for brain metastasis and small intestinal metastasis of lung cancer.
