Long Survival Colon Cancer: The Key is Multidisciplinary Treatment

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common diseases of the Western countries. Нe incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in Spain in 2012 was 19261 cases in males and 12979 in females, and it was the second largest cause of cancer mortality in both sexes. More than 25% of patients are diagnosed with advanced disease, and 25% of patients with early stages have a relapse during the follow-up. Of these, 80%-90% have unresectable liver metastatic disease. Despite the sLJnLficant improvement in the prognosis over the last decade, metastatic CRC (mCRC) is considered incurable in most cases with a median global survival of 30 months. Among the factors that have contributed to improving survival, we can highlight the improvement in the eوٴectLveness of systemic treatments, the increase in the number of patients whose objective is the resectability of metastases and the implementation of support treatments in the therapeutic strategy. Нe clinical case presented below is a metastatic patient with a long history of oncology due to the combination of multiple local and systemic treatments.
