We report a case in which TS-1 + paclitaxel (PTX) administration was effective for gastric cancer with malignant ascites. The patient was a 66-year-old male who received total gastrectomy, distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy. He complained of abdominal fullness and ascites 18 months later. The administered regimen of chemotherapy was TS-1 100 mg/day for two weeks, and PTX 120 mg/day on day 1 and 8 of TS-1 intake, followed by 1-week rest. Computed tomography (CT) showed complete loss of malignant ascites. The toxic events were grade 2 leukopenia and grade 2 alopecia.
