[A case report of gastric carcinoma with complete remission of paraaortic lymph node metastasis by 5'-DFUR and MMC administration after resection of primary tumor]
Abstract
A 53-year-old man was referred to our hospital with Borrmann type 2 advanced gastric cancer with a Virchow's node metastasis. A CT scan revealed a paraaortic lymph node metastasis. Because the tumor was diagnosed as being a poor candidate for curative resection, only a total gastrectomy was done. After surgery, administration of 5'-DFUR and MMC was begun. As a result, the paraaortic lymph node metastasis disappeared and the Virchow's node metastasis was reduced. The patient is well with no sign of recurrence 20 months after the operation.
