Abstract

The advancement of systemic chemotherapy for colorectal carcinoma has improved a clinical response rate and expanded a possibility of resection, which we thought we could not have been operable at the initial visit. It also improved a prognosis of patients. We report here a case with liver resection of metastasis from rectal cancer followed by bevacizumab treatment.
