Subtotal gastrectomy for gastric cancer after living donor liver transplantation and coloproctectomy: a case report

Abstract

The only radical method of treatment of end-stage liver diseases is orthotopic liver transplantation. Number of liver transplantations, from living and cadaveric donors, has been increasing much. One of the most common late complications after solid organ transplantations, related to immunosuppression therapy, is a high risk of various malignant neoplasms. Malignancy after solid organ transplantation has been increasing last years, and reached 20% in 10 years after liver transplantation. Gastric neoplasms after liver transplantations are rare cases. In this article we describe a case of gastric cancer after living donor liver transplantation. 

Keywords:gastric cancer, subtotal gastrectomy, living donor liver transplantation
