Abstract:
A 62-year-old man having advanced gastric carcinoma with extended lymph node metastases was successfully treated by a palliative gastrectomy and 6 courses of sequential methotrexate/5-fluorouracil therapy. No side effects were observed, and all enlarged abdominal lymph nodes disappeared. The complete response has continued for 11 months after the initial treatment.
