[Pulmonary Metastasis of Gastric Cancer as Carcinomatous Lymphangiosis at Five and Half Years after Surgery;Report of a Case].
A 51-year-old woman underwent radical operation for a gastric cancer and adjuvant chemotherapy with tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil potassium. Five and a half years later, screening chest computed tomography(CT)scan showed slight ground glass opacity(GGO)of the both lungs and they were regarded as inflammatory change. Several months later, she experienced a dry cough. CT scan showed aggravation of GGO, and she was refered to our hospital to investigate these lesions 6 years after operation. We performed a wedge resection of right middle lobe. A postoperative pathology revealed metastatic carcinomatous lymphangiosis of gastric cancer. Chemotherapy using capecitabine and oxaliplatin, and then docetaxel was performed and talc pleurodesis was done for the malignant pleural effusion. These treatments did not improve condition, and she died 7 months after lung operation. In conclusion, we need to consider GGO as the possibility of carcinomatous lymphangiosis in case of patient with gastric cancer.

[Case report of a patient with advanced and disseminated gastric carcinoma treated by s-1].
Prognosis of patients with metastatic gastric cancer is abysmal, usually just a few months. S-1 is a peroral fluoropyrimidine antitumor drug. It is a fixed combination of three effective drugs - tegafur, gimeracil and oteracil potassium.. This is a case report of a 71-year-old man treated for local advanced and metastatic gastric carcinoma treated with combination of S-1 and cisplatin as a first line of therapy. Treatment response reached partial remission and lasted for six months. Treatment was very well tolerated, with no grade 3 and 4 toxicity. After progression, the patient was treated with further lines of therapy.. In the Czech Republic, experience with S-1 drug is very limited. Our case report showed a good treatment response and minimal toxicity of this treatment, in concordance with results of the study FLAGS.
