    Abstract:
    A 68-year-old male diagnosed as Borrmann 2 type gastric cancer (T3N3P3H0M0: Stage IVb) was treated by distal gastrectomy and administration of CDDP 50 mg+MMC 10 mg intraperitoneally. After operation intraperitoneal chemotherapy was continued until adhesional ileus occurred four months later. At reoperation peritoneal dissemination was not found either macroscopically or microscopically. After four months, and expandable metallic stent (Wallstent) was applied for malignant biliary stenosis due to lymph node metastasis. Although the patient died 23 months after the first operation, our loco-regional cancer therapy seemed effective for support of quality of life.
