[Advanced Colon Cancer Resected after a Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy of CAPOXIRI-A Case Report].

: We report a case ofadvanced colon cancer, stage cT4bN0M0 in the descending colon with formation ofabscesses in the retroperitoneal space ofa 66-year-old woman. After constructing a transverse colostomy and percutaneous abscess drainage, chemotherapy was initiated with CAPOX. After 4 courses of CAPOX, the tumor had significantly regressed; therefore, the regimen was switched to a triplet combination called CAPOXIRI. After 3 courses of CAPOXIRI, the tumor had become smaller and had separated from the iliopsoas muscle, which led us to perform surgical resection. Left hemicolectomy was performed with R0 resection, and the tumor was pathologically diagnosed as ypT3N0M0. The patient is alive 12 months after the surgery, with no signs of recurrence.
