[Effective combination chemotherapy for a recurrent case of carcinoma of the remnant stomach].
A 69-year-old-man underwent distal gastrectomy for gastric carcinoma in 1988. Another gastric carcinoma was discovered in the remnant stomach in March 1995. Total gastrectomy and lymph node dissection were performed. CEA was up and we detected a big left suprarenal mass by abdominal CT. Suprarenalectomy was performed in June 1997. The swelling of lymph nodes was detected by CT and CEA was up to 1,000. Combination chemotherapy with intermittent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and low-dose cisplatin (CDDP) was performed. CEA suddenly decreased and lymph node swelling was reduced.
