Article Synopsis
- - An 81-year-old woman was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer, solitary liver metastasis, and suspected lung cancer during a health check and was transferred to the hospital.
- - She initially received chemotherapy with oxaliplatin and S-1, but after tumor enlargement, she switched to a second-line treatment involving paclitaxel and ramucirumab, which successfully reduced the tumor size.
- - After undergoing surgeries including gastrectomy and partial hepatectomy, she survived for over 5 years without further chemotherapy, demonstrating that treatment options can be effective for older patients with good overall health.
