title: [A case of liver metastatic recurrence of bile duct cancer completely responding to single drug, UFT, chemotherapy].
abstract: A 72-year-old man with common bile duct cancer was treated by pylorus preserving pancreatoduodenectomy with D3 lymph node dissection and preventive radiotherapy at hepaticojejunostomy. At 4 months after surgery, CT demonstrated multiple liver metastatic tumors. Single drug chemotherapy, UFT 600 mg, was started. After 6 months, the liver metastatic tumor could not be seen by CT. UFT may be a first candidate for chemotherapy for recurrence of bile duct cancer.
