N2 - A 62-year-old man underwent radical surgery for the treatment of remnant gastric cancer with mesojejunal lymph node metastasis. According to the 15th edition of the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, a histological diagnosis of B-35-A, type 3, tub2>tub1, pT3(SS), pN3a(10/37), cM0, CY0, pStage ⅢB was made. All lymph node metastases were recognized in the mesojejunum. Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 plus docetaxel was initiated after 4 weeks of surgery. The patient is still alive without recurrence after 1 year of surgery. Thus, radical surgery with dissection of the mesojejunum and intensive adjuvant chemotherapy might improve the prognosis in a remnant gastric cancer patient with mesojejunal lymph node metastasis.
