Simultaneous colonic metastasis of advanced gastric cancer: a case report.

BACKGROUND: Although distant metastasis in gastric cancer can be present at the time of the initial diagnosis, colonic metastasis is extremely rare. This report describes a case of simultaneous colonic metastasis of advanced gastric cancer. CASE PRESENTATION: The patient was a 78-year-old woman with nausea and epigastric pain. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed an advanced invasive ulcerative tumor in the lesser curvature of the stomach extending from the anterior to the middle portion. Colonoscopy revealed a 4-mm polyp-like lesion in the mid-transverse colon; therefore, a polypectomy was performed. Both gastric and colonic tumors showed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with signet ring cell carcinoma. After providing informed consent, the patient underwent a total gastrectomy. Histologic examination showed similar morphologic features of both gastric and colonic tumors. Immunohistochemistry staining showed that these tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin (CK) 7 and negative for CK20. CONCLUSIONS: This was an extremely rare case of simultaneous colonic metastasis of advanced gastric cancer. Because missed metastasis can result in a poorer prognosis, we propose a systemic search including colonoscopy for patients with advanced gastric cancer, especially cases involving poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma or signet ring cell carcinoma.

[A Case of Complete Response to Chemotherapy and Radical Resection of Unresectable Advanced Gastric Cancer].

The patient was a 75-year-old woman who was referred to our department because she had type 3 advanced gastric cancer on the posterior wall of the gastric body. Following a thorough examination, she was diagnosed as cT4aN3M1 (#16a1 int, #16b2 lat), cStage Ⅳ, an unresectable advanced gastric cancer with multiple extranodal lymph node metastases. As radical resection was not possible, chemotherapy(SOX therapy)was started. After the start of chemotherapy, the main lesion and metastatic lymph nodes shrank markedly. At the time of 7 courses, it was judged that R0 resection by conversion surgery was possible, and surgical treatment was performed. The patient underwent sub-total gastrectomy with D2 dissection and para-aortic lymph node dissection. The specimen was submitted for pathological examination and showed no residual tumor component including the main lesion and dissected lymph nodes, indicating a complete pathological response. She was started on S-1 as adjuvant chemotherapy on postoperative day 51 and has been recurrence-free for approximately 5 months after surgery.

Short- and Long-Term Outcomes of Single-Incision Laparoscopic Surgery for Right-Side Colon Cancer.

INTRODUCTION: There are little data concerning the long-term outcome of single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) for colon cancer. Therefore, we investigated not only the short-term outcomes but also the long-term outcomes of SILS for right-side colon cancer. METHODS: We retrospectively compared short- and long-term outcomes of SILS and conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) for right-sided colon cancer in our institution. Intergroup differences of short-term outcomes were evaluated using χ2 or Fisher exact tests and 2-sample Student t tests. The disease-free survival rates (long-term outcome) of stage II and III patients were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using log-rank tests. RESULTS: There were 290 operations conducted for right-side (cecum and ascending) colorectal cancers from April 2011 to July 2018. Open surgery was performed in 12 cases from start to the operation. SILS was performed in 196 cases and CLS in 55 cases. One patient underwent intraoperative conversion from SILS to laparotomy for bleeding control. In addition, 1 port was added to SILS in 3 cases. These 4 cases were included in the analysis as the SILS group according to the principle of intent to treat. BACKGROUND: Factors including age, gender, body mass index, performance status, and tumor stage were not statistically different between the SILS and CLS groups. In short-term outcomes, the number of harvested lymph nodes was not statistically different. SILS required less operating time (p < 0.001) and resulted in a reduced bleeding volume (p < 0.001). There was no statistical difference in the frequency of overall complications (p = 0.06). The disease-free survival of stage II and III patients was not statistically different between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: With the proper adaptation of SILS by an experienced surgeon, the short- and long-term outcomes of SILS were not inferior to those of CLS. Therefore, SILS could be a treatment option for right-sided colon cancer.

[A Case of Metachronous Quintuple Cancer Involving the Stomach, Rectum, Colon, Liver and Prostate].

Advances and improvements in cancer diagnosis and treatment have made it possible to find multiple primary cancers. We report here a rare case of metachronous quintuple cancer involving the stomach, rectum, colon, liver and prostate. An 80s‒ year‒old male was referred to our hospital with abnormality on upper GI series. He had undergone a distal gastrectomy in May 2005. Postoperative diagnosis was advanced gastric cancer (pT2N1M0, pStage ⅡA). In August 2006, anterior resection was performed with a diagnosis of advanced rectal cancer(pT3N0M0, pStage Ⅱa). For ascending colon polyps, endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed with a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma in adenoma(pTisN0M0, pStage 0)in September 2007. In June 2016, laparoscopic ileocecal resection was performed with a diagnosis of advanced cecum cancer(pT3N0M0, pStage Ⅱa). Follow up CT images showed a liver tumor in S4. Partial liver resection was performed in October 2010. Postoperative pathological diagnosis was hepatocellular carcinoma(pT2N0M0, pStage Ⅱ). Prostate cancer(cT2aN0M0)was treated by androgen deprivation therapy from February 2018. Although he had high‒frequency microsatellite instability, germline mutations in hMLH1 and hMSH2 genes were not detected. Histopathological examination showed that each tumor was an independent tumor and had not metastasized from any others. The patient had a good clinical course after these treatment until now.

[A Case of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor(p-NET)with Long-Term Survival with Multidisciplinary Treatment].

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor(p-NET)is a relatively rare disease, and treatment is multidisciplinary with resection, local therapy, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. We report on a case in which long-term survival was achieved by multidisciplinary treatment. The case is a 47-year-old male. He was referred to our hospital because of the diagnosis of pancreatic tail tumor and underwent distal pancreatectomy in May 2008. And he was diagnosed as p-NET G1 by the pathological results. After 3 TACE treatments and 1 partial liver resection for recurrent liver metastasis, multiple liver metastases and lymph node metastases were found in August 2014. As a result of the everolimus treatment, the determination of efficacy to lymph nodes was CR and liver lesions were CR with the addition of TACE treatment. In July 2017, he had multiple liver metastases and right humeral metastases, and has been treated with radiotherapy for bone metastases and has maintained CR. After TACE in November 2017, he received 9 rounds of lanreotide treatment. In December 2018, he again had liver metastases and lymph node recurrence. He has been treated with everolimus treatment again and is maintaining SD in outpatient treatment.

[A Curatively Resected Case of Quadruple Cancer including Synchronous Gastric and Superficial Esophageal Cancers with Metachronous Sigmoid Colon Cancer and Hepatocellular Carcinoma].

A 80s year old man was referred to our hospital with melena. Colonoscopy revealed an elevated lesion in the sigmoid colon. Laparoscopic sigmoidectomy(D2)was performed in August 2011. Postoperative diagnosis was advanced sigmoid colon cancer(pT2N1M0 and pStage Ⅲa, UICC). In January 2015, He suffered from epigastric discomfort after meals. Gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed advanced gastric cancer and superficial esophageal cancer. For esophageal cancer, endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed with a diagnosis of cStage 0-Ⅱa(UICC). Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with Billroth Ⅰ reconstruction was performed for gastric cancer with a diagnosis of pT1bN0M0 and pStage ⅠA(UICC). Follow up CT and MRI images in October 2016 showed a liver tumor in S4/S5. Laparoscopic partial liver resection was performed. Postoperative pathological diagnosis was hepatocellular carcinoma pT1N0M0, pStage Ⅰ(UICC). We finished following up period of the sigmoid colon cancer. Gastric cancer and esophageal cancer are followed up by gastrointestinal endoscopy once a year. Hepatocellular carcinoma is followed up every 3 months. He has no recurrence until now.

[A Case of 5 mm Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumor(NET)G1 with Lymph Node Metastasis at Additional Surgical Resection after EMR].

We report the case of a patient who underwent additional surgical resection of a rectal neuroendocrine tumor(NET)G1 with a tumor diameter of 5 mm after endoscopic resection, and lymph node metastasis was observed. The patient was a 33- year-old woman. A lower gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed to examine the blood in the stool. A submucosal tumor of 5 mm in size was found in the rectum Ra, and endoscopic mucosal resection was performed. Pathological examination of the resected tissue revealed NET G1; HE staining revealed negative margins and no vascular invasion, but additional immunostaining revealed lymphatic invasion(Ly1a). Additional surgical resection was decided, and a laparoscopy-assisted low anterior resection D3 were performed. The surgical resection specimen showed no residual NET component in the rectum, but metastasis was found in one lymph node. The postoperative course of the patient has been uneventful, and the patient is currently undergoing without recurrence 6 months after the surgery. In the case of NET G1, it is important to search for detailed vascular invasion by immunostaining even in small lesions, and if vascular invasion is found, additional surgical resection should be considered.

[A Case of Jejunal Perforation by Ramucirumab Just below the Treitz Ligament Treated with Primary Suture].

We present a case of jejunal perforation just below the Treitz ligament treated with primary suture after administration of ramucirumab(RAM). The patient was a 74-year-old male. He was diagnosed with Stage Ⅳ sigmoid colon cancer with liver and lung metastasis. Laparoscopic sigmoid colon cancer resection was performed previously. As adjuvant chemotherapy, the patient received 3 courses of CapeOX plus bevacizumab(BEV)and 20 courses of FOLFOX plus BEV and was in PR. After operation for liver and lung metastases, the patient was observed without any treatment, but pelvic recurrence and lung metastasis were noted, and FOLFIRI plus RAM was started. On the 7th day after the second course, the patient experienced abdominal pain. Since an intestinal perforation was suspected, emergency surgery was performed on the same day. There was a 5-mm-diameter perforation in the jejunum just below the Treitz ligament, and were small ischemic changes near the perforation. The rest of the intestine was clear, the perforation was suspected due to RAM. Since anastomosis was difficult, we performed primary suture and decompression of the location. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on POD 18. Currently, RAM has been discontinued and chemotherapy is being continued with FOLFIRI.

[A Case of Medullary Carcinoma of the Colon with Poor Prognosis].

An 87-year-oldwoman was referredowing to lightheadedness. Severe anemia(Hb 3.9 g/dL)was detected, and colonoscopy revealeda circumferential elevatedlesion at the transverse colon(Group 5, por). The patient was diagnosed with colon cancer(cT4a, N0, M0, Stage Ⅱ), andright hemicolectomy was performed. Immunochemical analysis showedthat the lesion was MLH1- andPMS2- and confirmed a diagnosis of medullary carcinoma. Although the patient was discharged 48 days after surgery without any incident, she was readmitted because of lower leg edema. Liver metastasis and peritoneal dissemination were suspectedon performing computedtomography, andthe patient died3 5 days after readmission. Medullary carcinoma has molecular pathological features such as methylation of the promoter region andassociatedattenuation of MLH1 protein expression, as well as microsatellite instability. The prognosis for medullary carcinoma is relatively good comparedto that for poorly differentiatedad enocarcinoma, though the present case hada poor prognosis. Herein, we report a literature review.

[Analysis of Laparoscopic Liver Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Cirrhosis].

Laparoscopic liver resection is not only minimally invasive but also reduces blood loss and postoperative complications compared to open surgery. Laparoscopic liver resection has been reported to be non-inferior to open resection in long term results. The indications for laparoscopic liver resection is expected to expand for patients with cirrhosis. In this study, we evaluated the safety and outcome of 96 cases of laparoscopic liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)in cirrhosis comparing with 32 cases of open liver resection performed in our hospital. Comparing laparoscopic and open liver resection cases(laparoscopic/open), the operative time was 304.2/211.0 minutes(p=0.003), blood loss was 459.8/1,102.0 g(p= 0.027)and post-operative hospital stay was 16.2/14.7 days(p=0.760). In laparoscopic surgery, operation time was longer, but the amount of blood loss was less, and post-operative hospital stay was comparable. In terms of postoperative complications, surgical site infections occurred in 5(5.2%)/5(15.6%)(p=0.068)and postoperative bleeding occurred in 2 (2.1%)/1(3.1%)(p=0.736), postoperative cholestasis occurred in 3(3.1%)/0(0.0%)(p=0.312)and mortality was 1(1.0%)/1(3.1%)(p=0.411), there was no significant difference. Laparoscopic liver resection can be safely performed in HCC patients with cirrhosis, and the results were as good as those of open liver resection.

[Secondary Small Bowel Volvulus after Laparoscopic Pancreaticoduodenectomy].

Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD)is less invasive and provides better cosmetic outcomes than open pancreaticoduodenectomy( OPD). LPD without vascular excision and lymph node dissection has been covered by insurance since 2016 in Japan. On the other hand, secondary small bowel volvulus is a rare condition caused after abdominal operation. A 77-year-old woman underwent a laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy with pancreatic cancer of pT2N0M0, pStageⅠB. She suffered from epigastric pain after meal. The abdominal CT revealed counterclockwise rotation of the SMV on SMA about 540 degree. Gastrointestinal endoscopy showed no abnormal findings in May 2017. Her abdominal pain was disappeared in July 2017. But the pain was recurred in May 2019. The abdominal CT revealed mesenteric edema and counterclockwise rotation about 810 degree. Her abdominal pain was disappeared again in February 2020. The counterclockwise rotation was decreased about 540 degree. Between May 2012 and February 2020, 50 patients underwent LPD at Kansai Rosai Hospital. 111 patients who received OPD between 2010 and February 2015 were included for comparison. No significant differences were noted between the LPD and OPD groups with respect to patient age(67.9 vs 70.3), gender(M/F: 31/19 vs 70/41). The intraoperative blood loss was lower(106 g vs 1,064 g, p<0.0001)and the operation time was longer (624 vs 535 min, p<0.0001)in the LPD group than the OPD group. Small bowel volvulus over 270 degree was 7/43 vs 5/106(p=0.0338), and over 360 degree was 6/44 vs 1/110(p=0.0014), respectively. Small bowel volvulus after pancreaticoduodenectomy was frequently observed in the laparoscopic group.

Laparoscopic colectomy after transcatheter aortic valve implantation in an elderly patient with obstructive descending colon cancer and severe aortic stenosis: a case report.

BACKGROUND: The demand for laparoscopic colectomy is increasing due to greater number of elderly colon cancer patients, and it is important to evaluate existing comorbidities to ensure perioperative safety. Aortic stenosis (AS) is one of the most common heart diseases in the elderly, and elderly cancer patients with severe AS may be considered ineligible for optimal cancer treatment if they cannot endure surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). Recently, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become a valid option in patients who are high risk for SAVR. We herein present the first case of an elderly cancer patient with severe AS who underwent laparoscopic colectomy after TAVI. CASE PRESENTATION: An 87-year-old woman with a history of multiple cardiovascular diseases was diagnosed with obstructive descending colon cancer and initially underwent colonic stenting. However, as preoperative echocardiography revealed severe AS, she underwent TAVI prior to the colectomy to reduce perioperative risk. TAVI was chosen instead of SAVR due to high SAVR mortality risk, and laparoscopic colectomy was performed 22 days after TAVI. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged 14 days later without any deterioration in general condition. No recurrence was observed at more than 1 year, even without adjuvant therapy. CONCLUSION: TAVI facilitated subsequent laparoscopic colectomy in an elderly cancer patient with severe AS. Our case report shows that TAVI may enable further cancer treatment even in patients with severe AS, who may otherwise be considered not suitable for such treatments.

[Role of Palliative Chemotherapy for Peritonitis Carcinomatosa of Inoperable Advanced Gastric Cancer].

We report a case of peritoneal dissemination of gastric cancer in which the QOL was maintained with a less-than-optimum dose of anticancer agent. A 64-year-old man underwent total gastrectomy for corpus gastric cancer without distant metastasis performedas an open-laparotomy. Peritoneum disseminations were observed in the left sub-diaphragmatic space and back side of the mesocolon, andthe tumor passedd irectly to the superior mesenteric vein of transverse mesocolon. As a first- line chemotherapy, G-SOX therapy(S-1 80mg/day/body and oxaliplatin 100mg/m2)was administered for 15 courses. After these courses, the disease was categorized as PD. Next, RAM/PTX(ramucirumab 8mg/kg andpaclitaxel 80mg/m2) were administered as second-line chemotherapy. However, the PTX, especially causedprolongedad verse effects such as G4- leveledbloodtoxicity andsevere general fatigue. Therefore, we administereda lower dose of PTX than the original optimal minimum dose. This lower dose chemotherapy resulted in effective changes such as decreased pain and general fatigue and resolution of the bloodtoxicity. As a result, the patient's QOL improved, and his condition has been maintained as SD for 2 years after the operation. For these reasons, this ordinary chemotherapy may be used as a palliative chemotherapy.

[A Case of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Complicated with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura].

The patient was a 72-year-oldwoman. She had been diagnosed with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP), hepatitis B, and diabetes mellitus. She was admitted to our hospital because of anemia andvomiting of blood vomiting and was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma at S6. A splenectomy was performed, with a temporary improvement of her platelet count. We tried to control the platelet count with medication and performed transcatheter arterial embolization(TACE)3 times. However, the tumor size decreased only slightly anda new tumor was observed on S2. Therefore, we increased the patient's platelet count to 109×10 4/mL and performed a partial hepatectomy of 4 lesions. The postoperative complications included intraabdominal abscess, but there was no bleeding and the patient was discharged on POD 114. Platelet count is often difficult to maintain in patients diagnosed with ITP. We report our experiences and also provide a discussion of a case of operated hepatocellular carcinoma complicated with refractory ITP.

[A Case of a Duodenal GIST Observed as a Non-Functional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor].

A 67-year-oldman was referredto our hospital because his CEA level was increasing. In March 2007, abdominal computed tomography(CT)showedthe presence of a tumor(30mm in diameter)in the pancreatic head. Upon close inspection, the patient was diagnosed with a non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and was observed. In September 2016, the patient showedhyperglycemia, liver dysfunction, andelevation of tumor markers. CT revealeda tumor(42mm in diameter) in the pancreatic head. It hadincreasedmore than before. We diagnosedhim with a gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)of the duodenum based on endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy and performed pancreaticoduodenectomy. Immunohistochemical staining showedpositive c-kit, andmore than 10%positive MIB-1. Currently, the patient is alive after the surgery.

[A Case of Extramedullary Plasmacytoma of the Stomach Detected Due to Severe Anemia].

A 78-year-oldwoman was referredfor exertional dyspnea. Severe anemia(Hb 4.2 g/dL)was detected, and upper endoscopy revealeda giant ulcer at the posterior wall of the gastric body. Computedtomography showeda mass protruding from the gastric wall, suggestive of a submucosal tumor. Although biopsy did not confirm a diagnosis, we performed distal gastrectomy to control the bleeding. The pathological findings and systemic examination confirmed a diagnosis of extramedullary plasmacytoma of the stomach. Plasmacytoma is a tumor of the bone marrow derived from plasma cells that mature from B cells. The frequency of extramedullary plasmacytoma for all plasmacytoma is about 5% and plasmacytoma derived from the stomach occurs in approximately 2%of these cases. Complete resection with lymph node dissection according to the surgical treatment of gastric cancer is recommended. Large tumors, such as that in the present case, may have a poor prognosis; thus, careful follow-up is required for the early detection of recurrence. We report a case of extramedullary plasmacytoma of the stomach with a literature review.

[A Case of Long-Term Control of Stage â £ Gastric Cancer by Multimodal Therapy].

An 82-year-oldwoman was admittedto our hospital because of appetite loss andwas diagnosedwith a Type 3 tumor in the lower gastric body. Pathological examination suggested moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma with negative staining for HER2 by immunohistochemistry. An abdominal CT revealedthickening of the gastric wall andparaaortic lymph node metastases. The clinical findings suggested Stage Ⅳ disease(T4aN3M1). Chemotherapy was administered with a combination of S-1 plus oxaliplatin(SOX). After 2 courses of the SOX regimen, an abdominal CT showed a reduction of the paraaor- tic lymph node metastases, and the CEA level hadd ecreasedto 6.2 ng/mL. After 7 courses of the SOX regimen, the CEA level hadincreasedto 10.1 ng/mL, and the treatment schedule was changed to a regimen of paclitaxel plus ramucirumab(PTX/ RAM). However, grade 4 neutropenia was observed after the first treatment. Distal gastrectomy with D1+lymph node dissection was performedfor local control in September 2016. The post-operative pathological findings were ypT1b2ypN2M1, ypStage Ⅳ and the chemotherapeutic effect was grade 1a. A CT scan revealedregrowth of the paraaortic lymph node 3 months after the operation. Chemotherapy was administered with a combination of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin(CapeOX). At present, the patient is being treatedwith capecitabine monotherapy in the outpatient department with no signs of tumor regrowth.

[Curative Resection for Liver Metastasis Ten Years after Surgery for Rectosigmoid Cancer-A Case Report].

Here, we report the case of a 73-year-oldfemale patient, who previously underwent high anterior resection for rectosigmoidcancer at the age of 63. Her scheduled5 years of follow-up after colorectal surgery hadbeen finished, but she kept undergoing endoscopic mucosal resection for colorectal polyps every 1 or 2 years since then. Blood examination 10 years 6 months after surgery for rectosigmoidcancer revealedthat the value of her serum CEA was 5.5 ng/mL, which was slightly higher than the normal range. Contrast-enhancedCT showedan irregular-shapedtumor with a diameter of 3 cm in which the contrast of the peripheral area was mainly emphasized. When combining the results of MRI and PET-CT examinations, the liver tumor was clinically diagnosed as either intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or metastatic liver cancer. Since the first choice of therapy was tumor resection for both diagnoses, S8 subsegmental hepatectomy was performed 10 years 8 months after surgery for rectosigmoidcancer. HE staining of the resectedspecimen showedwell or moderately differentiatedad enocarcinoma, andits immunostaining findings were as follows: CDX-2: positive, CK20: positive, CK7: negative. It was pathologically diagnosed as liver metastasis from rectal cancer. It is rare for colorectal cancer to have metachronous liver metastasis more than 10 years after surgery. However, in any case where a tumor marker for colorectal cancer increases, it is necessary to examine carefully with the possibility of any metastasis in mind.

[Pregnancy-Associated Stage â £ Gastric Cancer with No Recurrence for a Long Time-A Case Report].

A 28-year-oldwoman visiteda clinic with a complaint of epigastralgia 3 months after delivery. She was diagnosedwith gastritis andtreatedwith medication. Two months later, in January 2006, she was admittedto our hospital with a complaint of dysphagia. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed type 3 gastric cancer in the lesser curvature of the cardia, and abdominal CT scan showed wall thickening of the upper gastric body. No apparent distant metastases were found. The patient underwent total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection in February 2006. Although there was no peritoneal dissemination, the patient testedpositive in peritoneal lavage cytology. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was gastric cancer pT4aN2M1(P0CY1H0), Stage Ⅳ. She was discharged on postoperative day 22. S-1 monotherapy(100mg/day, day 1- 28q6wks)was performedfor 1 year on an outpatient basis. For 13 years and1 0 months after the surgery, no apparent recurrences of gastric cancer have been observed. In gastric cancers associated with pregnancy, it is difficult to distinguish between perinatal symptoms andsymptoms of gastric disease. Therefore, endoscopic examination shouldbe performedfor perinatal patients presenting with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms.

[A Case of Locally Advanced and Metastatic Breast Cancer Treated with Preoperative Bevacizumab Combination Chemotherapy That Attained Local Control].

We report a case of a 74-year-old woman with a left breast tumor with skin infiltration. Luminal type breast cancer with lung, bone, and parasternal lymph node metastases was diagnosed. She received paclitaxel and bevacizumab treatment. After chemotherapy, the lung metastasis and parasternal lymph node metastasis had disappeared, and the breast tumor had shrunk. Mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection were performed. She has been receiving post-operative endocrine therapy. Paclitaxel and bevacizumab combination therapy is one of the useful treatments for metastatic breast cancer with skin infiltration.
