A 62-year-old male patient presented at the hospital because of left lower abdominal tumor. Based on preoperative examination and biopsy results, he was diagnosed with stage IV diffusely infiltrating colon cancer (scirrhous type) with paraaortic lymph node metastases. He underwent sigmoidectomy with D1 lymph node dissection and received systemic infusion of 5-FU 750 mg and l-LV 300 mg once a week. This chemotherapy produced no change in response in the paraaortic lymph node metastases for a long time. One year later, there were distant lymph node metastases including left inguinal and Virchow's lymph node, and systemic infusion of CPT-11 was performed. In addition, left inguinal lymph node was treated with irradiation therapy (total 50 Gy). The patient died of multiple organ failure 18 months after the operation. It is known that the prognosis in cases of diffusely infiltrating colorectal cancer is extremely poor. However, this case might suggest that intensive therapies with surgery and chemoradiation are useful in maintaining quality of life and improving survival.
