A Case of Gastric Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma with Multiple Liver Metastasis Treated with Hepatic Artery Infusion Chemotherapy Followed by Surgery

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

A 73-year-old male visited our hospital with a complaint of general weakness. He underwent pyloric preserving pancreas-toduodenectomy due to ampullary cancer three years ago. Abdominal computed tomography scan at initial visit revealed multiple hepatic masses. A PET-CT scan showed multiple FDG uptakes at whole liver. He underwent hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) for five cycles. During the first cycle of HAIC, he developed gastric ulcer bleeding and endoscopic hemostasis was done successfully. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy after the 5^th cycle of HAIC revealed ulcer scar at gastric angle. PET-CT scan at 12 months showed no FDG uptake at liver, but a focal FDG uptakes at stomach and peri-gastric lymph nodes were newly developed. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed about 3 cm sized mass at gastric angle. He underwent surgery and pathologic examination revealed large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. We report a case of gastric large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma with liver metastasis treated with HAIC followed by surgery.
