ABSTRACT
Gastric adenosquamous carcinoma is a rare malignancy with a poor prognosis. We recently performed palliative gastrectomy for a gastric adenosquamous carcinoma with peritoneal dissemination and provided a course of systemic chemotherapy with S-1 plus paclitaxel(PTX)after the surgery. No serious adverse events were observed, and treatment with S-1 plus PTX was continued for 1 year before being switched to adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 alone for another year. The tumor maker levels normalized within 2 months of the initial treatment, and the peritoneal dissemination could no longer be detected by abdominal computed tomography(CT). The patient remained in clinical remission and maintained long-term survival of over 8 years.
