title: [A Case of Sigmoid Colon Cancer with Synchronous Liver Metastasis, Treated with Laparoscopic Liver Resection after SOX plus BV Chemotherapy].
abstract: We performed laparoscopic liver resection in a patient with synchronous liver metastasis from advanced sigmoid colon cancer after induction with S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX) plus bevacizumab (BV) chemotherapy. A 61-year-old woman underwent laparoscopy-assisted sigmoidectomy for locally advanced sigmoid colon cancer with synchronous liver metastasis. SOX plus BV chemotherapy was initiated. After 3 courses, the liver tumor was downsized, and metastasectomy was performed laparoscopically with R0 resection. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on the 11th postoperative day. She has been free from recurrence. Induction with SOX plus BV chemotherapy is considered to be not only effective, but also beneficial for maintaining the quality of life (QOL) in patients with advanced colorectal cancer.
