title: [A case of gastric cancer with liver metastasis responding to low-dose CDDP/5-FU combination chemotherapy].
abstract: We reported a case of a 62-year-old female with gastric cancer accompanied by liver, Virchow and paraaortic lymph nodes, and bone metastasis (taken low-dose cisplatin (CDDP)/5-fluorouracil (5-FU) combination chemotherapy). CDDP (10 mg/body/day) was injected on 1-5 days i.v. and 5-FU (500 mg/body/day) was injected i.v. continuously on 1-7 days. This treatment cycle was repeated for 4 weeks. After 4 cycles, liver metastasis disappeared without severe side effects. Primary lesion and Virchow's lymph nodes metastasis were reduced. However, bone and paraaortic lymph node metastasis showed no response. It was considered that low-dose CDDP/5-FU combination chemotherapy was effective for liver and lymph nodes metastasis of gastric cancer in this case.
