The patient was a 50-year-old multiparous female (gravida/para 4/2) who had divorced. She was followed up for 1 year and 5 months after completion of initial treatment for peritoneal cancer (preoperative chemotherapy + optimal surgery + chemotherapy). A gradual increase in the tumor marker CA125 occurred, and computed tomography and ultrasonography showed bilateral neck, left supraclavicular and right axillary lymphadenopathy. The patient wanted to continue her job. Therefore, she was treated with etoposide (25 mg) daily for 3 weeks and TJ-48 (juzen-taihoto, 7.5 g) daily for 4 weeks, and then followed up. After two weeks, swelling of lymph nodes had been reduced or eliminated and tumor marker CA125 was negative. The only adverse reaction was slight numbness and the patient continued to work while receiving the same drugs orally for 2 years and 8 months without any symptoms or recurrence. This case shows that a combination of etoposide and TJ-48 has an antitumor effect on recurrent progressive peritoneal cancer while allowing a patient to work and have a normal daily life.
