[A case of recurrent gastric cancer successfully treated with TS-1+CDDP chemotherapy].
A 74-year-old woman underwent distal gastrectomy and D1+ α dissection for the treatment of gastric cancer (pT2a, pN2, H0, P0, M0, Stage IIIA) in February 2008. She was treated with adjuvant postoperative chemotherapy consisting of TS-1. However, 32 months after the operation, paraaortic lymph node recurrence was confirmed by computed tomography (CT). She was treated with combined TS-1 and cisplatin chemotherapy. After 14 courses, CT revealed that the paraaortic lymph node metastasis had disappeared, and a complete response was attained. The patient is currently disease-free, 6 years after the operation.
