摘      要：Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignancies in China. GC patients often present with dysphagia and abnormal digestive function, leading to malnutrition or even cachexia. In February 2017, an advanced GC patient at Peking University Cancer Hospital received chemotherapy with the additional support of nutritional treatment. After being treated with the dietary prescription and oral nutritional supplements, the patient’s malnutrition was reversed, and he was able to complete five full cycles of chemotherapy.
