The patient was a 49-year-old man. In 1995, he underwent left hemicolectomy for descending colon carcinoma, and in 1996, partial hepatic resection was performed for liver metastasis. Post-operative chemotherapy was performed with 5'-DFUR. Five years later, he had lumbar and femoral pain. X-ray and MRI examination revealed a compression fracture and a spinal tumor at the XII thoracic vertebra. Though chemoradiotherapy was performed, the symptoms of pain, numbness and muscle weakness progressed. A resection of the metastatic spinal tumor was performed. Following several systemic chemotherapies, such as 5-FU/l-LV, CPT-11 + 5-FU/l-LV and low-dose CPT-11/UFT, radiotherapy was performed for the progressed bone tumor. At 2 years after surgery, he is still able to walk and no other site of recurrence has been detected.
