Abstract
RATIONALE: Most Chinese patients with locally advanced gastric cancer at diagnosis have an overall 5-year survival rate of <50%. Surgical resection alone is not suitable for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. Currently, comprehensive treatment is the focus of locally advanced gastric cancer. PATIENTS CONCERNS: The patient, a 56-year-old female, was admitted to the hospital because of "4 + months of double hydronephrosis found during a physical examination." Who was admitted for computer tomography and gastroscopy examinations, and take pathological tissue specimens during endoscopic examination. DIAGNOSES: Computed tomography assessment indicated ulcerative gastric cancer with an abdominal implant, bladder, and bone metastases. An endoscopic examination revealed that the ulcer of the gastric angle was huge, and through relevant auxiliary examinations, the diagnosis of this disease is gastric cancer complicated with multiple metastases to bladder, rectum, lumbar spine, and peritoneum. Clinically diagnosed as cT4bN3M1. INTERVENTIONS: The patient is currently undergoing first, second, and third line neoadjuvant therapy, combined with immunotherapy, targeted therapy, neoadjuvant intraperitoneal systemic chemotherapy, nutritional support, and other treatment plans. OUTCOMES: After 15 cycles of treatment, the progression-free survival had reached 15 months. The patient had an NRS2002 score of 1, an ECOG score of I, a quality of life score of 55, albumin of 35.27 g/L, and a decrease in abdominal and pelvic fluid accumulation and exudation compared to before. LESSONS: We demonstrated high survival of almost 3 years in a patient with gastric cancer that was complicated by bone, peritoneal, rectal, and bladder metastases. The combination of immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and neoadjuvant intraperitoneal systemic chemotherapy, along with the maintenance of nutritional status and CTCs could be a valuable modality for the subsequent treatment and observation of similar patients.
