Twenty-year survival of gastric cancer with peritoneal metastases using long-term normothermic intraperitoneal 5-fluorouracil and systemic mitomycin C: A case report. 

 -  2019 
<br/><br/> BACKGROUND: Primary gastric cancer that presents with peritoneal metastases has few options for successful treatment.  CONCLUSIONS: Gastric cancer with peritoneal metastases was successfully treated with a combination of gastrectomy plus intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy. Further studies using this simplified approach may be indicated.  Copyright (c) 2019. Published by Elsevier Ltd.  METHODS: A simplified treatment plan started with total gastrectomy and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. After placement of an intraperitoneal port combined intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy was given for six months.  RESULTS: The treatments were tolerated well and associated with an acceptable quality of life and no adverse events. The patient is a 20-year survivor of her disease.
