術後，肝転移に対する全身化学療法，ラジオ波焼灼療法による治療が奏効した胃腺扁平上皮癌の1例

: A 70-year-old man was given a diagnosis of advanced type 3 gastric cancer and underwent surgery. In addition to total gastrectomy and D2 lymph node resection, partial liver resection was performed due to detection of a solitary liver metastasis which was initially overlooked on preoperative CT. Histopathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as gastric adenosquamous carcinoma (Int, INFβ, pT2 (ss), H1, ly1, v2 (mp), EVG, n (-), pPM (-), pDM (-)). Three metastasic lesions appeared in the liver on abdominal CT scan performed 3 months after the operation. The patient underwent adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1. Since enlargement of the liver metastases was observed following 2 courses of treatment, the patient received combination chemotherapy of irinotecan and cisplatin. Of 3 metastatic lesions, 1 disappeared and 2 decreased to less than 2 cm in diameter after 8 courses of 2nd line treatment. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) was successfully performed to treat the remaining liver metastases. The patient has been free of recurrence for 41 months.
