    Abstract:
    A resected case of gastric cancer is described. The patient was a 60-year-old woman who presented a type 3 gastric tumor complicated by invasion of the head of the pancreas and liver. Radical resection was not indicated, and we administered the following combination chemotherapy with TS-1 and CDDP. 120 mg/day of TS-1 was orally administered for 3 weeks followed by 2 drug-free weeks as 1 course and 9 5 mg (60 mg/m(2)) of CDDP was administered intravenously on day 8. After two courses, total gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection were performed. Radical surgery for cure was conducted. Microscopically, the histological effect was judged to be grade 1a. One year after the operation, the patient is still alive without recurrence and metastasis. TS-1/CDDP therapy is useful for advanced gastric cancer.
