[A Case in Which S-1 plus CDDP and S-1 Therapy Responded to Liver Metastasis Recurrence after Gastric Cancer Operation].

: A 55-year-old man underwent distal gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection for type 2 gastric cancer of the antrum. One year later, CEA elevation was discovered, and contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography(CT)revealed a 40 mm mass in the liver(S8), which was judged to be a metastatic recurrence of the gastric cancer.S -1 plus CDDP was administered in 5 courses, followed by regular treatment with S-1 alone.Two years after the recurrence was diagnosed, the patient's CEA level was found to be normal, and CT revealed almost total scarring.After 2 more years, there was still no sign of recurrence, so, with the patient's consent, we discontinued the chemotherapy.Eight years after the gastrectomy, a 10mm nodular shadow was observed in the left lower lung lobe, and resection was performed.Despite the earlier diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma, this mass was considered a primary lung adenocarcinoma, and the patient died of small-cell lung cancer 11 years and 8 months after the gastrectomy.It is notable that the liver metastasis in this case responded to the S-1 plus CDDP and S-1 therapies, and this response is considered in light of the literature.
