A 57-year-old female patient with recurrent sigmoid colon cancer was successfully treated with 5-FU and UFT for 8 years. The patient, with cancer recurrence in the para-aortic lymph nodes, which were palpated in the abdomen, was given oral 5-FU at a daily dose of 200 mg. During the second week of administration, the mass showed a remarkable decrease in size, and complete disappearance was achieved within one month. However, 5 years and 2 months after discontinuation of 5-FU administration, recurrence in the supra-clavicular lymph nodes and para-aortic lymph nodes was recognized. After administration of UFT at a daily dose of 600 mg, complete disappearance of para-aortic lymph node recurrence was observed. At present, the patient is under observation as an outpatient at our hospital. This case suggests the effectiveness of 5-FU and UFT for lymph node metastases of sigmoid colon cancer.
