Abstract

A 68-year-old man was admitted to our hospital. He was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer with multiple liver metastases. The primary tumor was treated with distal gastrectomy with D2 dissection and anti-cancer agents, and then he was scheduled for a 2-stage hepatic resection. After surgery, the liver metastases disappeared, and he was diagnosed with a CR. However he complained of dizziness and was diagnosed with metachronous brain matastasis. Multidisciplinary treatment including resection and radiotherapy was administerd and he survived for 5 years after diagnosis.
