The patient was a 56-year-old man with advanced esophagogastric junction cancer. He received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 5-FU plus CDDP followed by lower esophagectomy and total gastrectomy via the left thoracoabdominal approach in October 2011. Pathological examination revealed EGJ adenocarcinoma (ypT4aN1M0, Stage ⅢA, Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma ver.14), and histological analysis indicated Grade 0 (no change). Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was administered. Nevertheless, 6 months after the operation, a solitary hepatic metastasis (f: 32 mm) was detected in S7 of the liver. The patient underwent proton beam irradiation of the liver metastasis, resulting in a complete response, and he was followed up without any chemotherapy. However, 21 months after the irradiation, regrowth of the previous lesion with FDG re-accumulation was noted. Given the absence of any neoplasms other than the liver metastasis, right hepatic lobectomy was performed. Pathological examination revealed a small cluster of viable tumor cells surrounded by extensive fibrotic tissue (Grade 2). At 45 months after the initial operation (10 months after the liver lobectomy), the patient is living without any signs of recurrence. Surgical resection for liver metastasis of EGJ cancer may be feasible after careful selection.
