[A Case of Successful Repeated Metastectomy for Peritoneal Recurrence of over 90 Years Old Colon Cancer Patient].

Treatment for cancer recurrence in elderly people over 90 years old is usually less advantageous in chemotherapy, and surgical resection is considered rather invasive if cure can be expected. We experienced a case of colon cancer in which recurrence of peritoneal dissemination was discovered and resected at the age of 90 years and at 92 years twice. Laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer at the age of 89 years was performed. At 13 months after primary surgery, CT revealed a nodule of 10mm in diameter in the abdominal cavity, and it was also positive in PET-CT. Because there was no other recurrent foci, radical resection was performed. After 14 months(2 years and 4 months after primary surgery), a 17mm large nodule was pointed out and radical resection was done again. Three years later(5 years and 6 months from primary surgery)have passed, she survives without recurrence at 95-years-old and 4 months without any decline in QOL. When recurrence of peritoneal dissemination can obtain radicality in resection, even for elderly persons, surgery should be considered if invasion is minor.
