[Successful combination chemotherapy for a post-operative gastric cancer patient with multiple liver metastases and elevated CEA].
A 75-year-old male was admitted one year after surgery for advanced gastric cancer. He was diagnosed as having multiple liver metastases with elevated serum CEA level. Combination chemotherapy consisting of THP-ADM, MMC and 5'-DFUR was done in the outpatient clinic. As a result, both multiple metastatic liver tumors and serum CEA level showed a remarkable response.
