ABSTRACT
A 69-year-woman was admitted to the clinic in August 2018 because of general fatigue and low appetite.She had occult blood-positive and was referred to our hospital for further investigations.There was LST in the rectum for which colonoscopy and ESD were performed.She had abdominal pain and slight fever on postoperative day 1.Abdominal CT showed an intussusception in the ileum.We could not achieve endoscopic de-torsion and carried out laparotomy.The intussusception was found to be strangulated due to inflammatory polyp and mesenteric adhesion.The affected portion was resected.Although treatment for low hypoalbuminemia and neurogenic cystitis was required, she was discharged on postoperative day 28.

A 68-year-old man had undergone right hemicolectomy of ascending colon cancer with multiple liver metastases. This case of k-ras status on the cancer tissue also showed wild type. Chemotherapy with panitumumab and 5-FU/LV/irinotecan (FOLFIRI)regimen was performed after the resection of the ascending colon cancer. After seven curses of treatment, metastatic liver tumors were reduced considerably(PR). Liver resection(left hepatic lobectomy and partial resection of S4 and S5)and radiofrequency ablation therapy were performed. Recently, chemotherapy has improved overall survival of initially unresectable patients by allowing tumor downstaging and complete resection. Combination chemotherapy using panitumumab, and FOLFIRI plus operation is a candidate as a standard treatment strategy for multiple liver metastases of colon cancer.
