The patient, a 73-year-old male, was admitted to our hospital because of dysphagia. A far-advanced cancer was diagnosed at the esophagogastric junction by upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examination. Pathological biopsy examinations revealed poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma. Computed tomography (CT) of the chest and abdomen showed invasion to the diaphragm. Clinical Stage was IV in an unresectable far-advanced tumor. He received radiation therapy (40 Gy/total, 2 Gy/day×20 times) in combination with chemotherapy using docetaxel (40 mg/m², day 1), nedaplatin (10mg/body, days 1-5) and 5-fluorouracil (500 mg/body, days 1-5). After this combination chemoradiation therapy (CRT), macroscopic examinations showed significant reductions in the size of tumor, leading a partial response according to the RECIST guidelines. He underwent total gastrectomy, partial resection of the lower esophagus via left thoracotomy, and Roux-en Y reconstruction with jejunostomy. Pathological examination of the resected specimens revealed Stage IV (T3N2P1CY0). The postoperative course was uneventful. He was treated on an outpatient basis without adjuvant therapy, and died 6 months after the operation by liver, spleen and lymph node metastases.
