[Conversion Surgery for Advanced Gastric Cancer with Ovarian Metastasis-A Case Report with Review of the Literatures].

ABSTRACT

Stage Ⅳ gastric cancer(GC)with ovarian metastasis showed poor prognosis and its treatment strategy remains unclear. Recent studies identified the favorable prognostic effect of conversion surgery in Stage Ⅳ GC following intensive chemotherapy. We report here a case with advanced GC and ovarian metastasis, who underwent conversion surgery for them followed by chemotherapy and had a long-term survival. We reviewed the literatures in order to discuss clinical significance of our treatment strategy.
