Individual approach to metastatic colorectal cancer treatment (clinical cases)

Abstract

Two patients with metastatic colorectal cancer underwent R0 large bowel resection followed by surgery liver and lungs metastases, retroperitoneal lymph nodes and post-op chemotherapy. The total follow-up period of the first patient was currently 12 years, the recurrence-free period was 5 years. In the second patient, stabilization of the disease was observed for 12 years, and the total follow-up period – 18.5 years. An integrated treatment approach to metastatic CRC with active surgery for removable distant metastases or perioperative use of the most effective drug therapy for potentially resectable metastases can control the disease even with an aggressive course.
