We describe a 46-year-old man who presented with the chief complaint of lower back pain. The patient was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer accompanied by multiple bone metastases, with compression fractures in the thoracolumbar vertebrae as well as distant lymph node metastases. He was administered eight courses of S-1/CDDP combination chemotherapy. Treatment results were as follows: primary lesion, non-CR/non-PD; lymph node metastases, CR; and bone metastases, non-CR/non-PD. As only the primary lesion showed a tendency toward progression after completion of eight courses, distal gastrectomy with D1 dissection was performed. Histopathological test results were ypT1b(SM1)and ypN1(2/22). The histological grade following treatment was grade 2 for both the primary lesion and the lymph nodes Following subsequent treatment with S-1 monotherapy and zoledronic acid, the disease did not progress, and at one year and four months since diagnosis and six months since surgery, CR and non-CR/non-PD have been maintained for the lymph node metastases and bone metastases, respectively.
