A 72-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of upper abdominal pain and back pain. Advanced gastric cancer was found at the fundus of the stomach, and severe dysplasia was found at the lower esophagus. We proceeded with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (S-1+CDDP) because the lymph nodes in the lesser curvature of the stomach were metastasized and invasion of the pancreas and some vessels was suspected by computed tomography. The tumor size was reduced remarkably, the esophageal dysplasia disappeared after preoperative chemotherapy, and we were able to perform total gastrectomy.
