title: [A Case of Liver Metastasis from Colorectal Cancer That Showed a Pathological Complete Response to mFOLFOX6 plus Cetuximab].
abstract: A 68-year-old man was diagnosed with rectal cancer on colonoscopy and liver metastasis of rectal cancer on abdominal computed tomography(CT). He underwent resection of the primary lesion, and the final diagnosis was A, N1, H1, P0, M0, fStage IV. After resection of the primary lesion, he received chemotherapy with mFOLFOX6 plus cetuximab. After 6 courses of the treatment, CT revealed partial response of the liver metastasis. Then, he underwent resection of the liver metastasis. The pathological finding revealed that the resected specimen had no cancer cells. After resection of the liver metastasis, he received 6 courses of chemotherapy with the same regimen, and relapse-free survival continues until the time of this writing.
