Gastric cancer with a giant lymph node metastasis: a case report and review of the literature.
Clinical Journal of Gastroenterology 2023 March 26
A 78-year-old man presented with a large abdominal mass detected by ultrasonography during a regular checkup. Even if the mass was > 10 cm in diameter, he was asymptomatic. Computed tomography detected an oval-shaped mass, with a maximum diameter of 12 cm, adjacent to the greater curvature of the stomach. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a 20 mm slightly depressed (type 0-IIc) lesion on the posterior wall of the gastric antrum, which was confirmed to be adenocarcinoma. Three cycles of combination chemotherapy with S-1 and oxaliplatin were administered as neoadjuvant chemotherapy. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the patient underwent distal gastrectomy, and a histopathological study identified the 12 cm giant mass as a lymph node metastasis. The postoperative course was uneventful, and thus far, the patient has completed adjuvant chemotherapy without relapse. Cases of gastric cancer with a giant lymph node metastasis are extremely rare. In this study, we report the present case and review the previous literature.
