ABSTRACT
Fifteen years after receiving a distal gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer, a 70-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of abdominal fullness due to ascites. Although cytological examination showed adenocarcinoma cells in the fluid, no examination revealed the primary lesion. Peritoneal metastasis was detected via immunohistochemistry using the cell block technique. After chemotherapy failure (S-1 plus CDDP, weekly PTX, and S-1 plus DOC), the patient received S-1 and weekly intravenous and intraperitoneal injections of PTX. The ascites decreased, and she has been doing well. Our experience with this case suggests that S-1 and weekly intravenous and intraperitoneal injections of PTX is a promising means of treating gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis.
