A 55-year-old woman was found to have a type-4 lesion centered on the greater curvature of the lower portion of her stomach during an upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examination.A diagnosis of inoperable advanced gastric carcinoma [type 4, tub 2/por, T3 (SE), N3, H0, P1, cStage IV], complicated by pyloric stenosis, liver dysfunction, and obstructive jaundice untreatable by bile drainage, was made.After obtaining the informed consent of the patient and her family and explain- ing that under the circumstances surgery was not indicated, chemotherapy [S-1 (granules) 80 mg/m2, CDDP 60 mg/m2] was selected. After starting treatment, an improvement in liver dysfunction and jaundice was observed, and at the start of the second course, the patient had become capable of oral feeding.The patient was discharged after completion of the second course. No choices associated with evidence exist for treatment of patients with inoperable advanced gastric cancer (complicated by obstructive jaundice), who are not elderly and have good performance status (PS).We report this case in which improvement of activity of daily living (ADL) was achieved relatively safely by treatment with S-1/CDDP, together with a brief discussion based on the literature.
