  • Title: [A case of early gastric cancer with Virchow's node metastasis, effectively treated by high dose of UFT].
    Author: Haraguchi M, Tsuboi S, Fukano M, Eguchi A, Iwao Y, Furuta T.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 1993 Dec; 20(15):2379-81. PubMed ID: 8259855.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of early gastric cancer with Virchow's node metastasis. The patient underwent partial gastrectomy and postoperative immunochemotherapy using MMC, 5'-DFUR and PSK, which reduced the Virchow's node. Three years after surgery, we found metastases to the left subclavicular and axillary nodes other than the Virchow's node. Then UFT was administered orally at 600 mg/day, and the metastatic nodes diminished, then vanished. The patient is alive nearly five years after surgery.
