[A Case of Laparoscopic Hepatectomy and Combined Resection of Lymph Nodes and Ureter for Liver Metastasis after Colorectal Cancer Surgery, with Local Lymph Node Recurrence and Bilateral Hydronephrosis].

A 65-year-old man with sigmoid colon cancer underwent sigmoidectomy, followed by 8 courses of oral S-1 as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Three years and 3 months after surgery, the patient developed liver metastasis, lymphadenopathy at the root of the inferior mesenteric artery, and bilateral hydronephrosis. The left hydronephrosis was believed to be due to invasion by lymph node metastasis at the root ofthe inferior mesenteric artery. The patient underwent laparoscopic partial resection ofsegment 5 ofthe liver, excision ofthe lymph nodes at the root ofthe inferior mesenteric artery(combined resection ofthe left ureter), bilateral ureteral stent placement, and left ureteral reconstruction. The postoperative course was without complications, and he was discharged 12 days after surgery. Follow-up observation without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was planned, according to the patient's wishes.
