Summary:The indication of hepatectomy for liver metastasis from gastric cancer has not been definitely established. Among 12 cases that were performed hepatectomy for liver metastasis from gastric cancer in our institute from 2008 to 2016, we analysed prognosis and the benefit of surgical resection. The overall 5-year survival rates of all cases were 42.3%, and median survival time was 2 years. The overall survival rates of synchronous metastasis was 59.3%and of metachronous metastasis was 0%. Recurrence rate of all cases within 1 year was 75%. There was no long-term survivor for metachronous metastasis because of its early recurrence though it was solitary liver tumor. We should carefully indicate surgical resection for liver metastasis from gastric cancer.
