A 57-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of descending colon cancer with multiple liver metastases. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed 13 liver metastases across the lobes. We started combination chemotherapy with capecitabine/oxaliplatin (CapeOX) and bevacizumab. After 9 courses of the treatment, the number and size of the liver metastases were remarkably reduced on MRI. Left colectomy and partial hepatectomy were performed. Histopathological examination revealed no residual cancer cells in the colon but revealed a few cancer cells in 4 of 7 resected liver specimens. At 11 postoperative months, 1 liver metastasis reappeared, for which we performed laparoscopy-assisted partial hepatectomy. At 21 months after the second operation, the patient was well without any signs of recurrence. Thus, the combination chemotherapy with CapeOX and bevacizumab allowed for the successful resection of the tumor and metastasis in our patient who initially had unresectable colon cancer and multiple liver metastases.
