ABSTRACT
A 60-year-old man who had a partial gastrectomy for gastric cancer 10 years ago was referred to our hospital for further examination for liver tumor. He was diagnosed as leiomyosarcoma of residual stomach associated with liver metastases. After preoperative transarterial embolization (TAE) with epirubicin of the anterior branch of right hepatic artery, residual stomach was resected, and the reservoir catheter and infusion arterial port were implanted. He was treated by intra-hepato-arterial chemotherapy of epirubicin. The patient has remained well for 2 years and 3 months without apparent complications.
