title: [A case of gastric cancer with DIC caused by multiple bone metastases treated with TS-1].
abstract: A 71-year-old woman was admitted for anorexia. Endoscopic findings revealed type 3 gastric cancer. Histological examination of the endoscopic biopsy revealed poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma. We performed total gastrectomy. However, 18 days after surgery, DIC due to multiple bone metastases occurred. The patient was treated with TS-1 chemotherapy in addition to anti-DIC therapy. TS-1(100 mg/day) was administered on days 1 to 5, 8 to 12, and 15 to 19 . The DIC was resolved. She was discharged after 2 courses of this regimen. This chemotherapy can be applied for the management of DIC caused by multiple bone metastases.
