Description
A 54-year-old woman was seen at the hospital because of anal bleeding.
Colonoscopy examination showed a type 2 tumor in the lower rectum and the histological diagnosis from the biopsy specimen was undifferenciated adenocarcinoma. Abdomino-perineal amputation of the rectum were performed. The resected specimen was positive for synaptophysin stain immunohistochemically and we diagnosed it as an endocrine cell carcinoma. We underwent adjuvant chemotherapy by bolus CPT-11, and the post operative course was uneventful. Intra-pelvic recurrence was observed 15 months after operation, and further 4 months later, metastasis developed around the pancreas. And we noticed the tumor in supraclavicular region 21 months after operation. The tumor was sensitive to chemotherapy, but continued to progress. So we underwent radiotherapy for each lesion. The lesion treated with radiotherapy were controlled until she died of cancer, 31 months after the operation. As a result of autopsy, an exellent effect of radiotherapy was confirmed.
