[A Case of Cecal Cancer with Para-Aortic Lymph Node Metastasis and Peritoneum Dissemination Treated with Curative Resection after mFOLFOX6 plus Panitumumab Chemotherapy].

Abstract
A 67-year-old woman was diagnosed with cecal cancer, para-aortic lymph node metastasis, peritoneum dissemination, and left breast cancer. We administered mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab for cecal cancer and an aromatase inhibitor for her breast cancer. She received 7 courses of systemic chemotherapy and showed a partial response. She additionally received 5 courses of mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab. We performed ileocecal resection, sigmoidectomy, right oophorectomy, dissection of the para-aortic lymph nodes, and peritoneal dissemination. The histopathological findings revealed adenocarcinoma, ypT3, ypN0, ycM0, ypStage II (therapeutic effect Grade 2). One month later, she underwent an enforced left breast segmental resection and sentinel lymph node biopsy(0/2). The results of the pathological examination indicated no residual cancers (therapeutic effect Grade 3). The patient is now in good health and was administered S-1 as an outpatient.
