title: [Results of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy by FOLFOX and FOLFIRI for colorectal liver metastasis].
abstract: We analyzed a treatment outcome and the effect of FOLFOX and FOLFIRI neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for patient with liver metastasis of colorectal cancer. Eleven patients undergoing hepatectomy after NAC were investigated. FOLFOX was performed for 8 patients, and FOLFIRI was for 3 patients. The response rate was 45.5% (PR 5, SD 6), and the reduction rate was 37.7%. The average ICG R15 value before hepatectomy was 13.7%. A complication during and after operations was not recognized. The average observation period was 19.8 months (8-45 months). Now, 9 patients are alive with no recurrence. NAC by FOLFOX for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer showed a high reduction rate, and there was a little influence to hepatectomy indicating that FOLFOX could be an effective therapy.
