[Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Liver Metastasis of Gastric Cancer].

Case 1: A 69-year-old man underwent distal gastrectomy in September 2007 for type 2 gastric cancer with liver metastasis (S5). After the operation, we administered chemotherapy. After that, we performed partial hepatectomy in July 2008. After hepatectomy, liver metastases appeared as 2 lesions in February 2009. Thus, we administered another type of chemotherapy. The effect of the chemotherapy was not favorable. Therefore, SBRT was performed for the liver metastases in December. After SBRT, he did not present with any recurrent tumors. Case 2: A 67-year-old woman underwent distal gastrectomy in March 2015. In August 2015, hepatic metastasis(S5 single shoot)was confirmed. Although chemotherapy was administered and SD was continued, it was ceased due to the patient's request. Thus, SBRT was performed in July 2016. However, from October 2016, multiple liver metastases developed and she died in January 2017.
