Higashi Sapporo Hospital is a cancer-specific hospital with palliative care doctors and certified oncologists. During case conferences held twice a week, we routinely evaluate the referred patients. In our case conferences, we selected patients who were referred to our palliative care division from other hospitals, with possible indications for cancer chemotherapies. We reviewed a total of 1215 patients who were referred to our palliative care division. We identified 18 cases as having indications for cancer chemotherapies. Among them, we identified 4 cases as having indications for standard cancer chemotherapies. All 4 patients tolerated the therapies well, responded to chemotherapy, and survived for more than 1 year. Conferences in which oncologists and palliative care doctors can discuss cases frequently and intimately are thought to be important.
