GIinteractive11 | Case 4 - Colorectal Cancer


A 79-year-old man in good condition received prior adjuvant capecitabine for Stage T3N2M0 colon cancer after which an elevated CEA led to a CAT scan demonstrating an isolated peripheral lesion in the right lobe of the liver. PET shows no disease elsewhere. Biopsy is compatible with colon cancer metastasis.
