| Core Tip |
Gastric carcinosarcoma is a rare tumor for which there is no established definitive treatment. We present the first report of gastric carcinosarcoma with c-kit expression treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgical resection and radiation therapy. Radiation therapy to the metastatic tumors dramatically reduced their size and the patient survived 22 mo after surgery with a good quality of life. Although the relation between c-kit expression and radiation susceptibility remains unknown, this report provides new insight into the treatment of gastric carcinosarcoma for improved prognosis. |
