A 69-year-old man underwent a Miles operation with D3 lymph node dissection for rectal cancer. The pathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma(Rb, A, ly2, v3, N2M0P0H0, Stage Ⅲb). Adjuvant chemotherapy was added for 6 months after the rectal resection. Metastasis in the left lung was detected 1 year and 10 months after rectal resection for which large segmental resection was performed. Without the onset of any new lesions, the patient underwent subsequent follow-up examinations. Abdominal CT performed for increased tumor marker levels observed at 6 years and 8 months after rectal resection revealed a mass suggestive of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma for which distal pancreatectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was metastasis to the pancreas from the rectal cancer as the tumor cells were immunohistochemically negative for cytokeratin 7 and positive for cytokeratin 20. There has been no indication of recurrence for 13 months after the pancreatic surgery. Resectable pancreatic metastasis from colorectal cancer is rarely reported. However, pancreatic resection may result in long-term survival in some cases. Patients that tolerate pancreatectomy and have no metastasis in the other organs should be considered good candidates for pancreatic resection. We present this case with a review of the literature. |
