A 55-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a complaint of appetite loss and body weight loss. Upper digestive endoscopy showed a giant fold at the greater curvature stomach and diffused edematous gastric mucosa. Abdominal contrast CT demonstrated a significant thickening of the gastric wall and a large number of lymph node swelling. A clinical finding was Stage IIIB (T3N2M0) Type 4 gastric cancer of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Total gastrectomy, splenectomy and D2 lymph node dissection were performed. Although there was no peritoneal dissemination, peritoneal lavage cytology was positive. After the operation, S-1 alone chemotherapy was administered for four years. No recurrence had occurred for about seven years and eight months after resection. However, the patient was pointed out the signs of recurrence (ascites and induration) by CT. Now, S-1 alone chemotherapy was performed again, and the patient has been in good health.
