The patient was a 50-year-old female with peritoneal metastasis of Type 4 gastric cancer. She underwent a relative curative resection with total gastrectomy and peritonectomy. Postoperative chemotherapy with 5'-DFUR following 5-FU and CDDP was performed. Thirteen months after surgery, cancer recurrence was suspected due to elevated levels of the serum tumor markers carcinoembryonic antigen (8.9 ng/ml) and alpha fetoprotein (85.8 ng/ml). She was additionally treated with UFT 300 mg/day and Lentinan 2 mg/week. The serum tumor markers decreased gradually returned to normal levels. At 5 years and 8 months after surgery, she is alive without any sign of recurrence.
