title: [A case of advanced gastric cancer exhibiting pathological complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy].
abstract: A 77-year-old woman diagnosed as having advanced gastric cancer with para-aortic lymph node metastasis received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and S-1. After 2 courses of chemotherapy, distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy was performed. There were no viable cancer cells in the primary lesion and lymph nodes. Currently, the patient is visiting our hospital for treatment with S-1 as adjuvant chemotherapy, and shows no signs of recurrence.
