[A case of advanced colon cancer responding to l-LV+5-FU as neoadjuvant chemotherapy].
2004
: The patient was a 45-year-old woman who had ascending colon cancer with multiple paramesenteric and paraaortic lymph node metastases. Combined l-LV 400 mg/body (250 mg/m2) +5-FU 950 mg/body (600 mg/m2) therapy was carried out as neoadjuvant chemotherapy. After 2 cycles of this therapy, the lymph node metastases were not detectable on computed tomography. Thus, right hemicolectomy was performed (D3, CurB). It is suggested that l-LV+5-FU therapy may be useful for advanced colon cancer as neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
