We report a rare case of long-term survival in a patient who received local therapy and salvage chemotherapy for recurrent metastases, along with a literature review. A 65-year-old male patient underwent subtotal gastrectomy for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma. Six months after gastrectomy, 2 metastatic intra-abdominal lymph node enlargements were detected, which were treated with radiotherapy. At 55 months after gastrectomy, an abdominal wall mass was detected, which was treated by surgical resection. The patient received 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin/irinotecan chemotherapy for 27 months before and after radiotherapy and docetaxel chemotherapy for 6 months after surgical resection of the abdominal wall metastasis. At the last visit, 7.8 years since the initial resection of the primary gastric cancer and 6.2 years since detection of the first metastases, the patient was disease-free and required no further chemotherapy. This case suggests that repeated local therapy offers potential for long-term survival in a carefully selected subset of patients with recurrent metastases.

The patient's personal characteristics, referral hospital, referral path, medical experiences and expenses were analyzed for 6 months after the patient's first visit. Findings: The largest proportion (848; 54.5%) of referrals was referred from primary clinic but the referrals of the same tertiary hospital level were one in seven (228; 14.7%) of the patients. Most patients (1,401; 90%) were referred from the clinics and hospitals directly and only one in ten (155; 10%) of the patients utilized the medical referral center.

병원 경영에서 가장 중요한 것은 환자들의 필요와 욕구를 파악하는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 이를 위해 상대적 중요도를 파악할 수 있는 분석기법인 AHP를 이용하여 환자들이 병원을 선택함에 있어서 AHP의 적용을 통한 그 요인들 간의 상대적인 우선순위를 파악하려는 데 그 목적이 있다. 환자들의 병원선택요인을 파악함으로써 의료기관이 중요성을 분석하여 병원이미지 개선 및 의료의 질 향상에 도움이 될 수 있도록 모색해 보고자 한다. 먼저 12개의 병원선택요인 중에서 병원의 전문성, 다양한 진료과목, 직원의 친절도, 의사의 설명 및 진찰시간 등과 같이 환자와 직접적으로 연관되어 있는 요인들이 중요도 및 가중치가 높게 나타났다. 또한 병원 주차장, 대중교통의 편의성, 의료장비 등이 상대적으로 중요도 및 가중치가 낮게 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과는 병원의 효과적인 이미지 개선 및 의료의 질 향상 전략에 중요하다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 광주시 소재 의료기관들은 병원 마케팅을 위해 병원선택에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 고려한 병원경영 방침을 개선하여 병원이미지 개선 및 의료의 질 향상에 노력할 필요가 있다.
