    Abstract:
    A case of double cancer, early gastric cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma, was reported. The patient was diabetic and had liver cirrhosis. After gastrectomy for gastric cancer which was hemorrhagic, he was treated by intra-hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy followed by hepatic resection. Histopathologically, about half of the main tumor showed necrosis, but very viable new cancer cell nests were seen around the main nodule. The patient is in good condition without recurrence of hepatic lesion 1 year after resection. The usefulness of arterial infusion chemotherapy was demonstrated in the case of double cancer, in which it is difficult to resect both cancers simultaneously.
