Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of designed perioperative surgical treatment for advanced gastric cancer.Method From March 2006 to Sep.2009,24 patients with advanced gastric cancer were enrolled for this study,of which 14 cases were graded as Ⅳ M0,10 as Ⅳ M1,including liver metastasis in 5 cases,peritoneal seeding in 4 and lung metastasis in 1.All patients received 2-4 cycles of chemotherapy of PCF or ECF regimen,followed by intended surgical resection and postoperative 2-3 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy of the same regimen as used during the preoperative course.Result Seven Cases abandoned surgical therapy,a total of 17 cases completed preoperative chemotherapy,surgical resection and postoperative chemotherapy.R0 resection was achieved in 16 cases(94%).There was no perioperative mortality,and total clinical response rate was 75%,overall pathological response rate was 82%.In 59% surgical cases (10 cases) serum CEA and CA199 has returned to normal;In 71%patients tumor pathological stage degraded at the cost of Ⅲ-Ⅳ grade of neutropenia,thrombocytopenia,anemia,severe nausea and vomiting in 79%,8%,13%,and 54% cases respectively.Fever was encountered in 2 cases with grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ neutropenia.Conclusion Designed perioperative chemotherapy regimen renders advanced gastric carcinoma patients operable at the cost of acceptable complications.
