[Long-Term Survival of Gastric Cancer with Multiple Liver and Lymph Node Metastases-A Case Report].

Currently, chemotherapy against unresectable advanced gastric cancer is progressing with the development new drugs and due to results of several clinical trials. Here, we reported a case of long-term survival of gastric cancer with multiple liver and lymph node metastases. A 68-year-old man was diagnosed with gastric cancer and Virchow lymph node, para-aortic lymph node, and multiple liver metastases at another hospital. He was referred to our hospital from Yamashita Naika Syokakika. We administrated 4 courses of S-1 plus CDDP. The main tumor and all metastatic lesions were significantly reduced. Subsequently, total gastrectomy, partial liver resection, and left neck and para-aortic lymph node resection(conversion surgery)were performed. The cancer cell was remnant at the main tumor and para-gastric lymph node. No cancer cells were detected in another lesion(R0 resection). Postoperatively, only S-1 was administered. However, 28 months after undergoing gastrectomy, liver metastasis occurred. Therefore, S-1 plus oxaliplatin, paclitaxel plus ramucirumab, and CPT-11 plus CDDP were administered. Liver metastases again increased and decreased, respectively. However, 46 months after gastrectomy, liver metastasis recurred and nivolumab was administered. Subsequently, liver metastases disappeared. At 55 months after gastrectomy, rectal resection was performed against rectal cancer and partial liver resection against liver metastases. Cancer cells were not detected in the resected specimens.
