摘要
Background: We evaluated the efficacy of surgical resection after successful chemotherapies in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Methods: Eighteen surgical patients who had had successful chemotherapies were selected after a review of 218 case records. Results: The 18 patients were grouped by their pretreatment status: 8 patients with distant lymph node metastases (N4 group), 7 with a small amount of ascites (P group), and 3 with both factors (N4 + P group). Good responses were achieved in all of the 11 patients with node metastases, including 4 patients with a complete response. Ascites in 7 of 10 patients disappeared. Two of 18 patients (11%) achieved curability A resections, while 8 patients (44%) achieved curability B and 8 (44%) achieved curability C resections. Pathologic complete responses were documented in 2 patients of the N4 group. The median survival time of the 18 patients was 14 months, with a 1-year survival rate of 61%. Six patients have survived more than 2 years, and 3 more than 5 years to date. The 8 N4-group patients who had surgery showed significantly better survival than 19 similar patients who had distant metastases and responded to chemotherapy but did not have surgery. A similar comparison of the P-group patients found no significant difference in survival associated with surgery. Conclusions: Surgery after chemotherapy might be beneficial for patients with distant lymph node metastases, but not effective for those with peritoneal dissemination.
