Abstract
We performed angiotension-induced hypertension cancer chemotherapy in a patient with unresectable gastric cancer with invasion to the pancreatic head and lymphatic metastases along the common hepatic and celiac arteries. At re-operation, the tumor size was remarkably decreased and we were able to perform curative subtotal gastrectomy without invasion and metastases. The pathological specimen showed no malignant cells at postoperation.
