A 64-year-old woman, who had been treated for gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) by total gastrectomy and received 3 courses of CHOP therapy at 61 years of age, was diagnosed with recurrence of DLBCL in the small intestine. After the small intestinal tumor was resected, multiple metastases were found in the liver. Because intensive chemotherapy was difficult for her poor performance status, 50 mg of etoposide daily by oral was administered for 21 consecutive days. After one course of chemotherapy, liver metastases and lymph node swelling almost disappeared without severe adverse effects, and after five courses she achieved complete remission. Though DLBCL invaded the central nervous system, the abdominal regions had been free from recurrence for 12 months. This case report suggests that oral etoposide therapy is useful for gastrointestinal DLBCL which has metastasized to the liver.
