Gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed an elevated tumor on the side of the lesser curvature, from the middle of the gastric body to the cardia. The length of the tumor was approximately 5 cm before chemotherapy (A, B). Computed tomography revealed portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) (C). After chemotherapy, the primary gastric lesion flattened and the PVTT shrank (D–F). Arrowheads show PVTT (C, F). Positron emission tomography only showed abnormal uptake in the primary gastric lesion and PVTT (G, H)
