Tumor markers decreased to normal level following primary treatment and the first chemotherapy cycle. After six months we did and immunoscintigraphy and second-look-laparotomy including the Regaj-procedure. There was a histological complete remission. Additionally we give a review about cytostatic treatment of this cancer the last then years. Radical operation combined with adjuvant chemotherapy is said to be successful.
