Abstract
Peritoneal disease can be classified as either benign or malignant in nature. Malignant peritoneal disease can be further considered as either primary or secondary in origin. Primary peritoneal malignancy includes peritoneal mesothelioma, serous carcinoma, and desmoplastic small round cell tumour. Peritoneal carcinomatosis is the most commonly encountered secondary malignant peritoneal disease, typically of ovarian, gastric, colorectal, pancreatic, small bowel neuroendocrine, or breast origin. Others include peritoneal lymphomatosis and sarcomatosis. Benign peritoneal pathology may mimic malignant disease. Differentiating benign from malignant peritoneal pathology can be challenging, but is critical to guide appropriate care and avoid unnecessary intervention. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) offers potentially curative treatment for patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis, pseudomyxoma peritonei, and peritoneal mesothelioma. For such patients, the radiologist provides crucial pre-operative information highlighting sites of disease involvement, particularly for sites which are challenging to assess at laparotomy or laparoscopy, including the hepatic dome, subdiaphragmatic space and mesenteric root. The radiologist is also essential to identify potential contraindications to surgery, as well as interpreting normal post-operative appearances, complications and assessing for disease recurrence.

Analysis of the characteristics and outcomes of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei of appendiceal origin treated with curative-intent surgery. Surg Oncol 2023; 51:102012. [PMID: 37972508 DOI: 10.1016/j.suronc.2023.102012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no previous studies on pseudomyxoma peritonei regarding the details of surgical procedures included in cytoreductive surgery and quantitative evaluation for peritoneal metastases by region in the abdominal cavity. This study aimed to describe the characteristics and procedural details involved in cytoreductive surgery, and survival outcomes of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei originating from appendiceal mucinous neoplasm, and identify differences in the difficulty of cytoreductive surgery based on tumor location. METHODS Patient characteristics and survival outcomes were studied through a retrospective review. The complete cytoreduction rate (i), the 5-year survival rate for patients with complete cytoreduction (ii), and an index as a complement (i × ii × 100) were described for patients who had tumors larger than 50 mm in one of the 13 regions of the abdominal cavity. RESULTS A total of 989 patients were treated with curative-intent cytoreductive surgery. The median peritoneal cancer index was 18 (interquartile range, 6-29), with complete cytoreduction achieved in 702 patients (71%); the major complication rate was 17%. The median overall survival was 92.9 months, compared to 53.8 months for patients who underwent total gastrectomy and 30.4 months for those who underwent total colectomy. In the 13 abdominal regions, the index scores indicating cytoreduction difficulty were categorized into three risk groups: upper and mid-abdominal (>20), lateral abdominal (10-20), and small bowel (<10). CONCLUSIONS Cytoreductive surgery offered favorable survival outcomes, even in cases involving total gastrectomy. The difficulty of achieving complete cytoreduction varied across abdominal regions and was classified into three levels.

Abstract
Background: Simultaneous liver resection and peritoneal cytoreduction with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) remains controversial today. The aim of the study was to analyze the postoperative outcomes and survival of patients with advanced metastatic colon cancer (peritoneal and/or liver metastases). Methods: Retrospective observational study from a prospective maintained data base. Patients who underwent a simultaneous peritoneal cytoreduction and liver resection plus HIPEC were studied. Postoperative outcomes and overall and disease free survival were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. Results: From January 2010 to October 2022, 22 patients operated with peritoneal and liver metastasis (LR+) were compared with 87 patients operated with peritoneal metastasis alone (LR-). LR+ group presented higher serious morbidity (36.4 vs. 14.9%; p: 0.034). Postoperative mortality did not reach statistical difference. Median overall and disease free survival was similar. Peritoneal carcinomatosis index was the only predictive factor of survival. Conclusions: Simultaneous peritoneal and liver resection is associated with increased postoperative morbidity and hospital stay, but with similar postoperative mortality and OS and disease free survival. These results reflect the evolution of these patients, considered inoperable until recently, and justify the trend to incorporate this surgical strategy within a multimodal therapeutic plan in highly selected patients.

Prognostic significance of the immuno-peritoneal cancer index in peritoneal metastatic patients treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:182. [PMID: 37148400 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-02912-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE A valid comparison of immune function among different patients with different primary pathologies or even with different tumour burdens requires the common use of a reliable assessment of the patient's condition. The combined immuno-PCI system can translate a complex clinical situation into a simple point value to improve postoperative outcomes to assess the prognostic significance of combined immuno-PCI in peritoneal metastatic patients treated with cytoreductive surgery(CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy(HIPEC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Four hundred twenty-four patients from the prospectively maintained database of Dokuz Eylul University Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Center were retrospectively analysed. In addition to the demographic findings and the well-known clinicopathologic factors, several systemic inflammation-based prognostic scores, including the modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS), CRP-albumin ratio (CAR), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), neutrophil-thrombocyte ratio (NTR), and thrombocyte count, were all searched and stratified into scoring categories as prognostic determinants of surgical complications, final oncologic outcomes, recurrent disease, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). ROC analyses were performed, and cut-off values were obtained for all immune parameters by using the Youden index method. RESULTS There were 314 (74%) women and 110 (26%) men. The median age was 56 (ranging from 18 to 86) years. The most frequent sites of peritoneal metastasis were colorectal (n = 204; 48%) and gynaecologic carcinomas (n = 187; 44%). Thirty-three patients (8%) had primary malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. The median follow-up was 37.8 (ranging from 1 to 124) months. The overall survival was 51.7%. The 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates were estimated as 80%, 48.4%, and 32.6%, respectively. PCI-CAR-NTR (1 to 3) (p < .001) scoring was an independent prognostic factor for DFS. In a Cox backwards regression analysis, anastomotic leak (p = .002), completeness of cytoreduction (p = .0014), number of organ resections (p = .002), lymph node involvement (p = .003), and PCI-CAR-NTR (1 to 3) scoring (p = .001) were found to be independently significant prognostic factors for overall survival. CONCLUSION The PCI is a reliable and consistently valid prognostic factor to evaluate the tumour burden and tumour extent in patients treated with CRS/HIPEC. Staging the host by combining the PCI with an immunoscore may help to improve the outcomes of complications and overall survival in these complex cancer patients. The aggregate maximum immuno-PCI tool may be a better prognostic measure for outcome evaluation.

Abstract
Objectives It was aimed to define the oncologic concept of "extremeness" in cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) to determine morbidity-mortality results and final oncologic outcomes. Material and Methods Prospectively recorded data of 666 patients with peritoneal metastases who had undergone CRS/HIPEC between 2007 and 2020 were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups as extreme (n= 371) and non-extreme (n= 295). Extreme CRS was defined as resection of ≥5 major organs or creation of ≥2 bowel anastomoses or peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI)≥ 15 or re-cytoreductive surgery. Results More CC-1 or CC-2 cytoreduction (p <.001), increased mortality and morbidity (p <.001), prolonged operative time (p <.001), increased intraoperative erythrocyte suspension (p <.001), albumin (p <.001), fresh frozen plasma (FFP) (p <.001), and post-operative erythrocyte suspension (p <.001) usage were found in the extreme CRS/HIPEC group. Operative time, CC-1 or CC-2 cytoreduction, presence of ostomy, development of infection, and use of intra-operative albumin and FFP were found to be independent prognostic factors in Cox regression analysis. Three and five-year survival rates were significantly lower in the extreme CRS/HIPEC group (p <.001). Conclusion High-volume peritoneal metastatic disease can be completely resected with extreme cytoreduction in carefully selected patients responsive to chemotherapy. Since the significant morbi-mortality related to the treatment of peritoneal metastasis is a real concern, it should be considered in experienced complex cancer centers that provides relatively better oncological outcomes compared to conventional treatments.

Surgical Options for Peritoneal Surface Metastases from Digestive Malignancies-A Comprehensive Review. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:medicina59020255. [PMID: 36837456 PMCID: PMC9960111 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59020255] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
The peritoneum is a common site for the dissemination of digestive malignancies, particularly gastric, colorectal, appendix, or pancreatic cancer. Other tumors such as cholangiocarcinomas, digestive neuroendocrine tumors, or gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) may also associate with peritoneal surface metastases (PSM). Peritoneal dissemination is proven to worsen the prognosis of these patients. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS), along with systemic chemotherapy, have been shown to constitute a survival benefit in selected patients with PSM. Furthermore, the association of CRS with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) seems to significantly improve the prognosis of patients with certain types of digestive malignancies associated with PSM. However, the benefit of CRS with HIPEC is still controversial, especially due to the significant morbidity associated with this procedure. According to the results of the PRODIGE 7 trial, CRS for PSM from colorectal cancer (CRC) achieved overall survival (OS) rates higher than 40 months, but the addition of oxaliplatin-based HIPEC failed to improve the long-term outcomes. Furthermore, the PROPHYLOCHIP and COLOPEC trials failed to demonstrate the effectiveness of oxaliplatin-based HIPEC for preventing peritoneal metastases development in high-risk patients operated for CRC. In this review, we discuss the limitations of these studies and the reasons why these results are not sufficient to refute this technique, until future well-designed trials evaluate the impact of different HIPEC regimens. In contrast, in pseudomyxoma peritonei, CRS plus HIPEC represents the gold standard therapy, which is able to achieve 10-year OS rates ranging between 70 and 80%. For patients with PSM from gastric carcinoma, CRS plus HIPEC achieved median OS rates higher than 40 months after complete cytoreduction in patients with a peritoneal cancer index (PCI) ≤6. However, the data have not yet been validated in randomized clinical trials. In this review, we discuss the controversies regarding the most efficient drugs that should be used for HIPEC and the duration of the procedure. We also discuss the current evidence and controversies related to the benefit of CRS (and HIPEC) in patients with PSM from other digestive malignancies. Although it is a palliative treatment, pressurized intraperitoneal aerosolized chemotherapy (PIPAC) significantly increases OS in patients with unresectable PSM from gastric cancer and represents a promising approach for patients with PSM from other digestive cancers.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) refers to metastatic spread of tumor into the peritoneal cavity. Earlier, PC was thought to be associated with grave clinical outcome. However, various advances in treatment options including cytoreductive surgery and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy or early post-operative chemotherapy can prolong survival of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis. These treatment options are associated with high morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this article is to acquaint the radiologist about various appearances of peritoneal carcinomatosis in order to help clinicians in selecting candidates for surgery and avoid unnecessary potentially debilitating surgeries in patients with unresectable PC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traditionally, synchronous liver resection (LR), cytoreductive surgery (CRS), and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for colorectal liver and peritoneal metastases have been contraindicated. Nowadays, clinical practice has promoted this aggressive treatment in selected cases. This study aimed to review surgical and survival results of an extensive surgical approach including CRS with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and LR. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were matched to find the available literature on this topic. The search period was limited to 10 years (January 2010-January 2021). A threshold of case series of 10 patients or more was applied. RESULTS In the search period, out of 114 studies found about liver and peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer, we found 18 papers matching the inclusion criteria. Higher morbidity and mortality were reported for patients who underwent such an extensive surgical approach when compared with patients who underwent only cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. Also, survival rates seem worse in the former than in the latter. CONCLUSION The role of combined surgical strategy in patients with synchronous liver and peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer remains controversial. Survival rates and morbidity and mortality seem not in favor of this option. A more accurate selection of patients and more restrictive surgical indications could perhaps help improve results in this subgroup of patients with limited curative options.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The role of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with extraperitoneal disease (EPD) is controversial. METHODS Among patients with peritoneal metastases from appendiceal cancer (AC) and colorectal cancer (CRC) who underwent CRS-HIPEC, those with EPD (liver, lung, or retroperitoneal lymph nodes [RP LN]) were retrospectively compared to those without EPD. Overall (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) analyses were performed before/after propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS Among 1341 patients with AC (64%) or CRC (36%) who underwent CRS ± HIPEC, 134 (10%) had EPD whereas 1207 (90%) did not. EPD was located in the lungs (47%), RP LN (28%), liver (18%), or multiple (6%). Patients with EPD experienced worse median OS (34 versus 63 mo; P = 0.002) and RFS (12 versus 19 mo; P < 0.001). On a multivariable analysis, EPD was associated with worse RFS (P = 0.003), but not OS (P = 0.071). After PSM, the association of EPD with OS (P = 0.204) and RFS (P = 0.056) was no longer significant. In the multivariable analysis of the PSM cohort, EPD was not associated with OS (P = 0.157) or RFS (P = 0.110). CONCLUSIONS The findings of this large retrospective multi-institutional study suggest that EPD alone, while a negative prognostic indicator, should not be considered an absolute contraindication to CRS ± HIPEC for otherwise well-selected patients with peritoneal surface malignancies. Further research is needed to delineate whether location of EPD influences OS and RFS following CRS-HIPEC.

Abstract
We aimed to determine the prognostic role of ileal resection on postoperative complications and the final oncological results of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) treatment in patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM). Patients with PM who underwent CRS and HIPEC between 2007 and 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Ileal resection was defined as the resection of the ileum at 100 cm or below. Patients were divided into ileal-resection and non-ileal resection groups. Besides clinico-pathological variables, peritoneal cancer index (PCI), completeness of cytoreduction (CC-0-1-2), (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy, operative time, need for surgical intensive care unit, and usage of blood products were all evaluated. The data of 664 patients was analyzed. Ileal resection was performed in 346(52.1%) patients. The median follow-up period was 27 months. The ileal resection group had significantly lower 3-and 5-year survival rates (55% and 43% vs. 69% and 52, p = .005, respectively). High PCI score (p < .001), more CC-1-2 cytoreductions (p < .001), more anastomoses (p < .001), prolonged operative time (p < .001), more ostomy creation (p = .001), increased morbidity (p < .001), and more infectious complications (p < .001) were all significantly associated with ileal resection. The loss of ileal function has a potential prognostic role in increased post-operative complications and worsened overall survival in patients with PMs.

Abstract
Objectives This study aims to evaluate how metastases in the seven topographical regions of the simplified peritoneal cancer index (sPCI) affect the survival of patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal (CRC) or appendiceal cancers. Methods Data was collected retrospectively from patient records. Abdominal regions affected by PC were identified using the histological verification of surgically removed tumours found in the electronic pathology report. Verified tumours were grouped according to the sPCI topography. Results One hundred and eighty-three patients treated with CRS and HIPEC were included. Metastases in the small bowel had a negative impact on survival with a hazard ratio of 1.89 (p=0.005). A significantly impaired survival was also detected for patients affected by metastases in the ileocolic region (p=0.01) and in the omentum and spleen (p=0.04). Conclusions When selecting patients for CRS and HIPEC a more cautious approach may be applied by considering the regions affected.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102840. [PMID: 35628966 PMCID: PMC9143396 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a poor prognostic factor for all malignancies. This extent of metastatic disease progression remains difficult to treat with systemic therapies due to poor peritoneal vascularization resulting in limited drug delivery and penetration into tissues. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are surgical interventions that directly target peritoneal tumors and have improved outcomes for PC resulting from appendiceal and colorectal cancer (CRC). Despite these radical therapies, long-term survival remains infrequent, and recurrence is common. The reasons for these outcomes are multifactorial and signal the need for the continued development of novel therapeutics, techniques, and approaches to improve outcomes for these patients. Here, we review landmark historical studies that serve as the foundation for current recommendations, recent discoveries, clinical trials, active research, and areas of future interest in CRS/HIPEC to treat PC originating from appendiceal and colorectal malignancies.

Abstract
With increasing subspecialised experience in radical cytoreductive surgery and intra-abdominal chemotherapy for peritoneal malignancy, outcomes have improved significantly in selected patients. The surgery and the treatment regimens are radical and therefore correct patient selection is critical. The radiologist plays a central role in this process by estimating, as precisely as possible, the pre-treatment disease burden. Because of the nature of the disease process, accurate staging is not an easy task. Tumour deposits may be very small and in locations where they are very difficult to detect. It must be acknowledged that no form of modern day imaging has the capability of detecting the smallest peritoneal nodules, which may only be visible to direct inspection or histopathological evaluation. Nonetheless, it behoves the radiologist to be as exact and precise as possible in the reporting of this disease process. This is both to select patients who are likely to benefit from radical treatment, and just as importantly, to identify patients who are unlikely to achieve adequate cytoreductive outcomes. In this review, we outline the patterns of spread of disease and the anatomic basis for this, as well as the essential aspects of reporting abdominal studies in this patient group. We provide an evidence-based update on the relative strengths and limitations of our available multimodality imaging techniques namely CT, MRI and positron emission tomography/CT.

Abstract
Mass Spectrometry Imaging is an effective technology that allows to determine the in-situ distribution of endogen and/or exogen small molecules. It is a rapidly emerging approach for visualizing drugs and their metabolites within biological tissues. Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization (MALDI) Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MSI) coupled to high resolving power analyzer (e.g. TOF) was already investigated for metallodrug localization and metabolization studies, but was proved to suffer from a lack of sensitivity and resolution, leading to poor coverage and assignment. To counter these technological limitations, the use of ultra-high resolving power analyzer such as Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance (FTICR) could be revealed as a technique of choice. The high field FTICR MS provides ultra-high resolving power and mass accuracy that allows exhaustive molecule coverage and non-ambiguous molecular formula assignments. Platinum derivatives, such as oxaliplatin, are widely used as therapeutic agents for cancer treatment. The assessment of their intake, distribution and metabolism within the organs is important to know the risks associated with their use. In this study, MALDI FTICR MSI analyses were performed to better understand the penetration and metabolization of platinum derivatives in ovaries of women treated by Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal metastasis of colorectal or appendicular origin. Twelve ovary sections, from six ovary samples in six women donors, before and after treatment, were analyzed with 120 μm spatial resolution. For the first time, the high resolving power (220,000 at m/z 457) and sub-ppm accuracy (<1 ppm) of the FTICR combined with an Isotopic Fine Structure study enabled to distinguish two Pt-isobaric species derived from oxaliplatin in biological tissues. One of these, which is unknown, was specifically localized at the contour of the ovary.

Abstract
Patients with an oncologic disease requiring cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy may also present with morbid obesity. In some patients, it may be possible to offer bariatric surgery such as sleeve gastrectomy in combination with their cancer resection to treat both diseases concurrently. Two such cases are described where sleeve gastrectomy was done alongside the primary oncologic surgery in the same procedure. Our patients had long-term follow-ups and their overall outcomes were favorable. They achieved remission and acceptable levels of weight loss over their several years of follow-up appointments. The added benefit of bariatric surgery may decrease long-term morbidity and mortality in carefully selected patients. More studies are indicated to fully understand the risks of benefits of this combined procedure in order to offer it on a wider scale.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There are currently scarce data exploring ureteric reimplantation (UR) during cytoreductive surgery (CRS). METHODS We identified patients undergoing CRS for peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) of any origin at a single high-volume unit. UR was defined as ureteroureterostomy, transureterouretostomy, ureteroneocystostomy, ureterosigmoidostomy or ileal conduit performed during CRS. Peri-operative outcomes, long-term survival and risk factors for requiring UR were analysed. RESULTS Seven hundred and sixty-seven CRSs were identified. Twenty-three (3.0%) procedures involved UR. Bladder resection and colorectal cancer (CRC) were associated with increased risk of UR (bladder resection: OR 12.90, 95% CI 4.91-33.90, p<0.001; CRC: OR 2.51, 95% CI 1.05-6.01, p=0.038). UR did not increase the risk of Grade III-IV morbidity or mortality. The rate of ureteric leak was 3/23 (13.0%) in the UR group. Mean survival was equivocal in patients with CRC (58.14 vs. 34.25 months, p=0.441) but significantly lower in those with high-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (HAMN) undergoing UR (73.98 vs. 30.90 months, p=0.029). CONCLUSIONS UR during CRS does not increase major morbidity or mortality for carefully selected patients, and is associated with low rates of urologic complications. Whilst decreased survival was apparent in patients with HAMN undergoing UR, it is unclear whether this relationship is causal.

Abstract
Background Peritoneal metastases carry the worst prognosis among all sites of colorectal cancer (CRC) metastases. In recent years, the advent of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has improved survival for selected patients with limited peritoneal involvement. We report the evolution of CRS and HIPEC for colorectal peritoneal metastases at a tertiary referral center over a 10-year period. Methods Patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases undergoing CRS and HIPEC were included and retrospectively analyzed at a tertiary referral center from January 2006 to December 2015. Main outcomes included evaluation of grade III/IV complications, mortality rate, overall and disease-free survival, and prognostic factors influencing survival on a Cox multivariate analysis. Results Sixty-seven CRSs were performed on 67 patients during this time for colorectal peritoneal metastases. The median patient age was 57 years with 55.2% being female. The median peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) was 7, with complete cytoreduction achieved in 65 (97%) cases. Grade > 2 complications occurred in 6 cases (8.9%) with no mortality. The median overall survival for the entire cohort was 41 months, with a 3-year overall survival of 43%. In case of complete cytoreduction, median overall and disease-free survival were 57 months and 36 months respectively, with a 3-year disease-free survival of 62%. Complete cytoreduction and nonmucinous histology were key factors independently associated with improved overall survival. Conclusions CRS and HIPEC for limited peritoneal metastases from CRC are safe and effective, with acceptable morbidity. In selected patients, it offers a highly favorable long-term outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The standardization of surgical outcomes throughout surgical procedures is mandatory. Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC) should provide proficient oncological and surgical outcomes. STUDY DESIGN The aim of this study was to identify clinically relevant quality indicators and their quality standard, and to determine their acceptable quality limit. A systematic review on cytoreductive results from 2000 to 2018 was performed focusing on clinical guidelines, consensus conferences, and publications. After the selection of quality indicators, a systematic review of indexed references was performed in order to calculate the quality standard for each indicator. STUDY SELECTION Unicentric/multicentric series, comparative studies, and clinical trials. Studies were to include outcomes after cytoreduction of colorectal origin and series with more than 50 patients. Quality indicators with at least 10 series were mandatory and objective measurements were also mandatory for inclusion. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS Quality indicators selected were 1- to 5-year survival, overall disease-free survival, 1- to 5-year disease-free survival, complete surgical resection, duration of surgery, length of stay, overall morbimortality, major morbidity, re-intervention, postoperative hemorrhage, intestinal fistula, anastomotic leakage, wound infection, postoperative medical complications, overall recurrence, and failure to rescue. RESULTS The most relevant quality indicators and critical quality limits were overall disease-free survival and 5-year overall disease-free survival (14 months and <10 months, and 14% and <4%, respectively), completeness of surgical resection (89% and <80%, respectively), overall mortality (3% and >8%, respectively), overall morbidity (47% and >63%, respectively), failure to rescue (12% and <30%, respectively), reintervention (13 and <22%, respectively), anastomotic leakage (6% and <13%, respectively), and overall recurrence (60% and <74%, respectively). CONCLUSION This is the first study to assess quality standards in CRS + HIPEC for colorectal peritoneal metastases. The current data are of particular relevance for future studies to control the variability of this surgery.

[PMID: 34131821 PMCID: PMC8205203 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-10187-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2021] [Accepted: 05/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a common fatal disease with unfavorable prognosis, even after oncological resection. To improve survival, adding hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been suggested. Whether HIPEC entails disproportional short-term mortality is unknown and a prospectively determined adverse events profile is lacking. Since both pancreatic resection and HIPEC may relevantly influence morbidity and mortality, this uncontrolled single-arm, open-label, phase I/II pilot trial was designed to assess the 30-day mortality rate, treatment feasibility, and adverse events connected with HIPEC after oncological pancreatic surgery. METHODS This trial recruited patients scheduled for PDAC resection. A sample size of 16 patients receiving study interventions was estimated to establish a predefined margin of treatment-associated short-term mortality with a power of > 80%. Patients achieving complete macroscopic resection received HIPEC with gemcitabine administered at 1000 mg/m2 body surface area heated to 42 °C for 1 hour. RESULTS Within 30 days after intervention, no patient died or experienced any adverse events higher than grade 3 that were related to HIPEC. Furthermore, treatment-related adverse events were prospectively documented and categorized as expected or unexpected. This trial supports that the actual mortality rate after PDAC resection and HIPEC is below 10%. HIPEC treatment proved feasible in 89% of patients allocated to intervention. Pancreatic fistulas, as key complications after pancreas surgery, occurred in 3/13 patients under risk. CONCLUSION Combined pancreas resection and gemcitabine HIPEC proved feasible and safe, with acceptable morbidity and mortality. Based on these results, further clinical evaluation can be justified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are effective treatment options for selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). We compared the short-term outcomes of surgery plus HIPEC and CRS alone for PC. METHODS We retrospectively examined patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC for PC at a single center from 2014 to 2019 using the Chinese CRS-HIPEC patient database at our institution. Patients were divided into two groups: surgery plus HIPEC (450) and surgery alone (200). A 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed. The postoperative outcomes, mortality, and length of hospital stay were compared between the surgery plus HIPEC and CRS alone groups. RESULTS Propensity scoring generated 162 pairs. There was no statistically significant difference in the 30-day mortality rate between the groups (0% vs 0%, P = 1.000), and the morbidity rates were similar in both groups (7.4% vs 8.0%, P = 0.835). The surgery plus HIPEC group had a longer operative time (247.81 ± 64.70 vs 184.55 ± 29.56, P ≤ 0.001) and a slightly longer postoperative hospital stay (14.64 ± 5.24 vs 12.59 ± 3.76, P ≤ 0.001). No other baseline characteristics were significantly different. CONCLUSIONS Surgery plus HIPEC is feasible for select patients and is associated with prolonged surgery times and prolonged hospital stays, and there is no significant difference in mortality rates or postoperative outcomes.

Oxaliplatin-based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with single drug versus multiple drug treatment for colorectal cancer with peritoneal metastases: an observational cohort study. J Gastrointest Oncol 2021; 12:516-526. [PMID: 34012645 PMCID: PMC8107596 DOI: 10.21037/jgo-20-494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2020] [Accepted: 01/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term survival for selected patients with peritoneal metastases (PM) from colorectal cancer (CRC) is possible when treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The objective of this study was to compare three different oxaliplatin-based (OX)-HIPEC regimens. Primary end-point was disease-free survival (DFS), and secondary endpoints, morbidity and overall survival (OS). METHODS This is a retrospective study of all patients with colorectal PM treated with CRS and HIPEC between 2004 and 2015 from the prospectively maintained Uppsala HIPEC database. One hundred and thirty-three patients were identified. Three HIPEC regimens were included: OX-HIPEC, OX-HIPEC + post-operative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and oxaliplatin-irinotecan-based (OXIRI)-HIPEC. Multivariable Cox regression for DFS was performed. RESULTS Sixty-one patients received OX-HIPEC, 24 patients received OX-HIPEC + 5-FU EPIC, and 48 patients received OXIRI-HIPEC. The DFS for the OX-HIPEC group was 10.5 months, OX-HIPEC + EPIC 11.9 months, and OXIRI-HIPEC 13.4 months (OX-HIPEC vs. OXIRI HIPEC, P=0.049). The morbidity and OS did not differ between the groups. In the multivariable analysis, low peritoneal cancer index (PCI), absence of liver metastases, low completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score, and multiple drug (EPIC or OXIRI) HIPEC regimen were independent prognostic factors for DFS. CONCLUSIONS This study showed improved DFS with an intensification of HIPEC by adding irinotecan or EPIC compared to oxaliplatin alone without an increase in morbidity or mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While parenchymal hepatic metastases were previously considered a contraindication to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), liver resection (LR) is increasingly performed with CRS/HIPEC. METHODS Patients from the US HIPEC Collaborative (2000-2017) with invasive appendiceal or colorectal adenocarcinoma undergoing primary, curative intent CRS/HIPEC with CC0-1 resection were included. LR was defined as a formal parenchymal resection. Primary endpoints were postoperative complications and overall survival (OS). RESULTS A total of 658 patients were included. About 83 (15%) underwent LR of colorectal (58%) or invasive appendiceal (42%) metastases. LR patients had more complications (81% vs. 60%; p = .001), greater number of complications (2.3 vs. 1.5; p < .001) per patient and required more reoperations (22% vs. 11%; p = .007) and readmissions (39% vs. 25%; p = .014) than non-LR patients. LR patients had decreased OS (2-year OS 62% vs. 79%, p < .001), even when accounting for peritoneal carcinomatosis index and histology type. Preoperative factors associated with decreased OS on multivariable analysis in LR patients included age < 60 years (HR, 3.61; 95% CI, 1.10-11.81), colorectal histology (HR, 3.84; 95% CI, 1.69-12.65), and multiple liver tumors (HR, 3.45; 95% CI, 1.21-9.85) (all p < .05). When assigning one point for each factor, there was an incremental decrease in 2-year survival as the risk score increased from 0 to 3 (0: 100%; 1: 91%; 2: 58%; 3: 0%). CONCLUSIONS As CRS/HIPEC + LR has become more common, we created a simple risk score to stratify patients considered for CRS/HIPEC + LR. These data aid in striking the balance between an increased perioperative complication profile with the potential for improvement in OS.

Abstract
Background: Urinary system resections and reconstructions are needed in peritoneal carcinomatosis due to abdominal malignancies. The effect of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy on these urological procedures after reconstruction remains uncertain. The aim of the study is to evaluate major urological interventions during cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in complex abdominal malignancies with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Methods: Forty-four cases underwent surgical intervention related to the urinary system among 208 cases who underwent cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy because of peritoneal carcinomatosis. Urinary system procedures performed in these patients (radical-partial cystectomy, partial ureter resection ureteroneocystostomy, ureteroureterostomy, nephrectomy) were evaluated in terms of postoperative morbidity–mortality and survival. Results: Urinary system resections were performed during cytoreductive surgery in a total of 44 cases. The mean age was 54 years (20–73). Patients were diagnosed with peritoneal carcinomatosis due to colorectal cancer in 21 (47.8%), ovarian cancer in nine (20.4%), sarcomatosis in five (11.4%), cervical cancer in four (9%) and other cancers (mesothelioma, uterus, breast, gastric) in five (11.4%) cases. Total nephrectomy was performed in three cases and partial nephrectomy in one case. Cystectomy was performed in 21 cases; 16 of these were partial and five were total cystectomies. Ureteroureterocystostomy with double J was performed in four cases and ureteroneocystostomy in 12 cases. While Clavian–Dindo grade 3–4 complications were seen in nine cases (20.4%), three cases (6.8%) became exitus during the first 30-day follow-up. Conclusions: Although urinary system involvements have been regarded as inoperable in the past, we think that with adequate experience radical urinary interventions performed in suitable patients can be carried out with acceptable morbidity and mortality as seen in our series.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peritoneal metastases confer the worst survival amongst all sites of metastatic colorectal cancer. The adoption of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has become an option for patients with isolated colorectal peritoneal metastases (CRPM). The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes following CRS and HIPEC for CRPM from published high volume cohort studies and to highlight the latest controversies and future directions of CRPM treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review was performed on published studies on the treatment outcomes of CRS and HIPEC for colorectal peritoneal metastases. RESULTS Twenty studies met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review. The median survival for all patients ranged from 14.6 to 60.1 months. The 5-year overall survival ranged from 23.4% to 52%. For patients with complete cytoreduction, the median survival was 25 to 49 months. Major morbidity and mortality ranged from 15.1% to 47.2% and 0% to 4.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION CRS and HIPEC for the treatment of CRPM is safe and current evidence suggests it improves both median and disease-free survival. However, the efficacy of intraperitoneal chemotherapy, in particular oxaliplatin, has recently come under scrutiny. Accordingly, higher quality evidence is urgently required to contribute to multidisciplinary and international consensus on CRPM treatment strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Synchronous peritoneal and liver metastasis in colorectal cancer is a relative contraindication for curative surgery. We aimed to evaluate the safety and oncological outcomes of combined treatment of peritoneal and liver metastasis. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of metastatic colorectal cancer patients from two prospective databases: peritoneal surface malignancy (n = 536) and hepatobiliary (n = 286). We compared 60 patients treated with cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and hepatectomy; 80 patients treated with cytoreduction and HIPEC only; and 63 patients treated with hepatectomy alone. RESULTS No differences in demographics were observed between the groups. Median hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) stay was shorter in group C (7 and 1 days, respectively) versus groups A and B (13 and 1 days, and 12 and 1 days, respectively; p < 0.001). Postoperative complications were not significantly different. Median follow-up was 18.6, 23.1, and 30.6 months for groups A, B, and C, respectively. Estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) was 48.8% (group A), 55.4% (group B), and 60.2% (group C) [p = 0.043 for group A vs. group C], and estimated 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) was 14.2% (group A), 23.0% (group B), and 18.6% (group C). Five-year OS was superior in group C compared with group A (p = 0.043), and DFS was superior in group C compared with groups A and B (p = 0.043 and 0.03, respectively). The peritoneum was the site of first recurrence in groups A and B (23.3% and 32.5%, respectively), and the liver was the site of first recurrence in group C (44.4%). CONCLUSIONS We report favorable perioperative and oncological outcomes in combined cytoreduction/HIPEC and hepatectomy for patients with peritoneal and liver metastasis. Surgical intervention after multidisciplinary discussion should be considered in patients with both peritoneal and hepatic lesions when complete cytoreduction is feasible.

Practice patterns, attitudes, and knowledge among clinicians regarding hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy and pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy: a national survey by Indian society of peritoneal surface malignancies (ISPSM). Pleura Peritoneum 2020; 5:20200120.

Abstract
Objectives Perception of cytoreductive surgery (CRS), hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) for treating peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) differ widely among physicians. Methods This on-site survey performed during a major oncology congress in 2019 evaluated the current opinion, perceptions, knowledge and practice of HIPEC and PIPAC among oncologists in India. Results There were 147 respondents (gynecologists (30%), surgical oncologists and gastrointestinal surgeons (64%), and medical oncologists (6%)). Whereas most respondents considered CRS and HIPEC an appropriate therapeutic option, 25% would not recommend CRS and HIPEC. The main barriers to referral to an expert center were inaccessibility to such a center (37.8%), non-inclusion of CRS and HIPEC in clinical practice guidelines (32.4%), and a high morbidity/mortality (21.6%). Variations were found in the various practice patterns of CRS/HIPEC like eligibility criteria, HIPEC protocols and safety measures. Although PIPAC awareness as a novel therapeutic option was high, only a limited number of centers offered PIPAC, mainly because of non-access to technology and missing training opportunities (76.2%). Conclusions Lack of widespread acceptance, poor accessibility and low utilization presents a significant challenge for HIPEC and PIPAC in India. There is a need to raise the awareness of curative and palliative therapeutic options for PSM. This might be achieved by the creation of expert centers, specialized training curricula and of a new sub-speciality in oncology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal treatment for colorectal cancer (CRC) with synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) and liver metastases (LM) remains controversial. We aimed to investigate clinical outcomes in patients with CRC and concomitant PC and LM who had undergone curative surgery, including resections at both metastatic sites and synchronous intraabdominal chemotherapy. METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases for eligible studies. Studies focusing on the clinical effects of curative surgery and synchronous intraabdominal chemotherapy for patients with CRC and concomitant PC and LM were included. Meta-analysis results were recorded as hazard ratios (HRs), risk ratios (RRs) and mean differences. RESULTS We included 9 of 998 identified studies in the meta-analysis, involving 746 patients (221 patients with PC + LM, 525 patients with PC). Overall survival (pooled HR 1.68, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.33-2.13, p < 0.01) and disease-free survival (pooled HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.51-2.20, p < 0.01) were both lower in patients with PC + LM. A higher recurrence rate (RR 1.22, 95% CI 1.04-1.44, p = 0.02) and major postoperative morbidity (RR 1.47, 95% CI 1.19-1.82, p < 0.01) were also observed in patients with PC + LM. CONCLUSION Liver resection in combination with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for patients with CRC and synchronous hepatic and peritoneal metastases may be associated with worse survival and higher morbidity compared with patients with isolated PC. More restricted patient inclusion criteria should be established to facilitate an optimal prognosis for this patient group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An effective treatment strategy for peritoneal metastasis (PM) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC-PM) has yet to be established. Although cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have shown favorable outcomes in certain malignancies, their role in peritoneal metastatic HCC is unclear. Herein, we present a series of patients with HCC-PM treated with CRS/HIPEC and evaluate their outcomes. METHODS Records of patients with HCC-PM who had undergone CRS/HIPEC at the Hyperthermia Center of Yuan's General Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan, between September 2015 and December 2016 were reviewed retrospectively. Patients were followed up until September 2019. We assessed the clinical courses and outcomes of these patients to clarify the benefits of CRS/HIPEC. RESULTS Six patients were included in our study. HCC-PM occurred synchronously in one patient and occurred metachronously in five patients after therapeutic minimally invasive procedures, including radiofrequency ablation, laparoscopic hepatectomy, robotic hepatectomy or spontaneously. The median peritoneal cancer index was 18.5. All patients experienced complete peritoneal cytoreduction without perioperative mortality. One patient had two CTCAE grade 3 complications. The median follow-up was 16 months. The median overall survival was 15.7 months. Four patients died of lung metastasis or liver failure owing to intrahepatic recurrence. The survival rates observed at 1, 2, and 4 years were 66.7%, 33.3%, and 33.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS CRS followed by HIPEC is feasible in patients with HCC-PM and might provide selected patients a chance for local disease control and longer survival. CRS/HIPEC might be considered as a treatment option in highly selected patients, as part of multimodal therapy approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that, overall, quality of life (QoL) decreases within the first 3-6 months after cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC), returning to baseline levels by 6-12 months. This systematic review aims to evaluate the factors affecting QoL after CRS + HIPEC within 12 months of surgery. METHODS Electronic databases were investigated searching for articles reporting QoL with validated questionnaires up to September 2019. Risk of bias was assessed with the methodological index for non-randomized studies tool. The primary outcomes were short-term (< 6 months after surgery) and medium-term (6-12 months after surgery) determinants of QoL after CRS + HIPEC. Secondary outcomes were QoL and reported symptoms over time. RESULTS We included 14 studies that used 12 different questionnaires. The reported data were collected prospectively or retrospectively for 1556 patients (dropout < 50% in four studies). Overall, studies showed diminished QoL within 3 months after surgery and a recovery to baseline or greater by 12 months. QoL was negatively influenced by higher age, female sex, prolonged operation time, extensive disease, residual disease, adjuvant chemotherapy, complications, stoma placement, and recurrent disease. QoL results were comparable between studies, with dropout rates above and below 50%. CONCLUSIONS QoL returns to baseline levels within 12 months after CRS + HIPEC provided the disease does not recur, and this recovery process is influenced by several factors.

Abstract
Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) is a rare peritoneal malignancy, most commonly originating from a perforated epithelial tumour of the appendix. Given its rarity, randomized controlled trials on treatment strategies are lacking, nor likely to be performed in the foreseeable future. However, many questions regarding the management of appendiceal tumours, especially when accompanied by PMP, remain unanswered. This consensus statement was initiated by members of the Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International (PSOGI) Executive Committee as part of a global advisory role in the management of uncommon peritoneal malignancies. The manuscript concerns an overview and analysis of the literature on mucinous appendiceal tumours with, or without, PMP. Recommendations are provided based on three Delphi voting rounds with GRADE-based questions amongst a panel of 80 worldwide PMP experts.

Abstract
Background The peritoneum is the second most common site for metastasis in patients with colorectal cancer. Various factors have been studied to identify patients at risk of developing peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC), including T4 tumors. The objectives were to assess the incidence of synchronous and metachronous PC, explore potential risk factors for developing PC as the only site of metastasis, and identify which patients might be candidates for prophylactic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of 125 patients with pT4 colon cancer who underwent surgery in a single center between January 2010 and December 2014. Results Of the 947 colon cancer patients who underwent surgery, 125 (13.2%) were diagnosed with pT4a or b colon carcinoma. The median follow-up was 3.7 years. The overall rate of PC was 34.3%, being synchronous in 12% and metachronous in 22.3% of cases. The 8% and 6% of synchronous and metachronous cases of PC respectively were isolated (single site) metastasis. The incidence of PC was 6.1% at 1 year and 14.5% at 3 years after surgery. pT4 was not found to be an independent risk factor for the development of PC (p = 0.231). Nonetheless, the rate of metachronous PC as a single site of metastasis was higher in patients with pT4 tumors and peritoneal nodules around the primary tumor and/or tumor perforation (p = 0.027) and/or who underwent emergency surgery (p = 0.043) than other patients. Conclusions Considering pT4 tumor stage as the only risk factor for the development of PC in deciding whether to administer prophylactic HIPEC would lead to unjustified overtreatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Peritoneal metastases carry the worst prognosis among all sites of colorectal cancer metastases. In recent years, the advent and acceptance of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy have greatly improved survival for selected patients with low-volume peritoneal metastases. OBJECTIVE Here, we report the evolution of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for colorectal peritoneal metastases at a statewide tertiary referral center over an 8-year period. DESIGN This is a retrospective study from 2009 to 2017. SETTING The study was conducted at a single center over 8 years. PATIENTS Patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases undergoing cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy were included. MAIN OUTCOMES Main outcomes included evaluation of grade III/IV morbidity rate, mortality rate, overall and relapse-free survival, and prognostic factors influencing survival on a Cox multivariate analysis model. RESULTS One hundred one cytoreductive surgeries were undertaken on 96 patients during this time for colorectal peritoneal metastases. The median patient age was 60 years with 55.2% being female. The median Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index was 9, with complete cytoreduction achieved in 76 (75.2%) cases. Grade III or IV complications occurred in 26 cases (25.7%) with 2 (2%) perioperative mortalities. Median overall survival for the entire cohort was 32 months, with a 3-year survival of 38%. For patients who achieved a complete cytoreduction, median overall survival was 37 months, with a relapse-free survival of 13 months and a 3-year survival of 54%. Complete cytoreduction and nonmucinous histology were key factors independently associated with improved overall survival. LIMITATIONS The main limitation this study is its retrospective nature. CONCLUSION Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for isolated low-volume colorectal peritoneal metastases is safe and effective, with low morbidity. It offers selected patients a highly favorable overall and relapse-free survival. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B2. EVOLUCIÓN DE LA CIRUGÍA CITORREDUCTIVA Y QUIMIOTERAPIA INTRAPERITONEAL HIPERTÉRMICA (HIPEC) PARA METÁSTASIS PERITONEALES COLORRECTALES: EXPERIENCIA INSTITUCIONAL DE 8 AÑOS: El cáncer colorrectal es la segunda causa de mortalidad relacionada con el cáncer en todo el mundo. Las metástasis peritoneales tienen el peor pronóstico entre todos los sitios de metástasis del cáncer colorrectal. En los últimos años, el advenimiento y la aceptación de la cirugía citorreductiva y la quimioterapia intraperitoneal hipertérmica ha mejorado enormemente la supervivencia de pacientes seleccionados con metástasis peritoneales de bajo volumen. OBJETIVO Aquí, informamos sobre la evolución de la cirugía citorreductiva y la quimioterapia intraperitoneal hipertérmica para las metástasis peritoneales colorrectales en un centro de referencia terciario para todo el estado durante un período de ocho años. DISEÑO:: Estudio retrospectivo del 2009 a 2017. CONFIGURACIÓN:: Centro único a lo largo de ocho años. PACIENTES Pacientes con metástasis peritoneales colorrectales sometidos a cirugía citorreductiva y quimioterapia intraperitoneal hipertérmica. RESULTADOS PRINCIPALES Los resultados principales incluyeron la evaluación de la tasa de morbilidad de grado III / IV, la tasa de mortalidad, la supervivencia general y libre de recaída y los factores pronósticos que influyen en la supervivencia en el modelo de análisis multivariado Cox. RESULTADOS Se realizaron el ciento uno cirugías citorreductivas en noventa y seis pacientes durante este tiempo por metástasis peritoneales colorrectales. La edad media de los pacientes fue de 60 años, con un 55.2% de mujeres. El Índice de Carcinomatosis Peritoneal mediano fue de 9, con una citorreducción completa lograda en 76 (75.2%) casos. Las complicaciones de grado III o IV ocurrieron en 26 casos (25.7%) con dos (2%) de mortalidad perioperatoria. La supervivencia mediana general para toda la cohorte fue de 32 meses, con una supervivencia de 3 años del 38%. Para los pacientes que lograron una citorreducción completa, la supervivencia global media fue de 37 meses, con una supervivencia sin recaída de 13 meses y una supervivencia de 3 años del 54%. La citorreducción completa y la histología no mucinosa fueron factores clave asociados de forma independiente con una mejor supervivencia general. LIMITACIONES La principal limitación es la naturaleza retrospectiva del estudio. CONCLUSIÓN:: La cirugía citorreductiva y la quimioterapia intraperitoneal hipertérmica para las metástasis peritoneales colorrectales aisladas de bajo volumen son seguras y eficaces, con baja morbilidad. Ofrece a los pacientes seleccionados una supervivencia global altamente favorable y libre de recaída. Vea el Resumen del video en http://links.lww.com/DCR/B2.

Abstract
Objective The primary objective of this non-randomised phase II study was to evaluate the combination of systemic chemotherapy plus cetuximab after complete cytoreductive surgery (CCS) for treatment of isolated colorectal peritoneal carcinoma (CRPC). This multicentre, prospective phase II clinical trial was conducted in seven national cancer referral centres, however research published during study recruitment indicated cetuximab treatment as ineffective in patients with mutated KRAS genes, leading to an additional exclusion criterion to the current protocol, excluding patients with mutated KRAS genes. This significantly impacted recruitment and the study did not achieve the necessary recruitment of 46 patients. Results Fourteen patients underwent CCS and were included in the study, however one did not provide informed consent and another received only one cycle of chemotherapy leading to 12 patients in the per protocol population for analysis. Adjuvant Folfox Cetuximab was administered when CCS was achieved for patients > 18 years with histologically proven CRPC and no other metastatic disease (liver, lungs, lymphadenopathy, etc.). CRPC median index was 5.00 (range: 1–17). Median PFS was 12.3 months [95% CI (3.7–28.2)] with 8.3% [95% CI (0.5–31.1)] and 0% PFS at 3 and 5 years respectively. Median OS was 43.4 months [95% CI (16.8–60)]. Trial registration Clinical Trials NCT00766142, October 3, 2008. Retrospectively registered

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY Cytoreductive surgery including liver resection and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy provide survival benefit to selected patients but is associated with relevant morbidity and mortality rates. We aimed to report morbidity and mortality rates and parameters linked to increased morbidity. PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective analysis of 37 patients who underwent liver resection and cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy between 2006 and 2016. From a prospectively collected database the morbidity and mortality rates and survival data were analyzed. RESULTS The mortality rate was 0% and grade III-IV morbidity was 42%. Re-operation rate was 27%. Patients with complications tended to have a higher peritoneal cancer index (16 vs. 13; P=0.23). The performance of rectal resections was statistically significantly associated with morbidity (P=0.02). Neither performance of other type of resections nor the hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy compound nor the completeness of cytoreduction score was associated with elevated morbidity. No complications related to liver resections were observed. Furthermore, origin of peritoneal metastases did not impact on occurrence of complications. Median overall survival for colorectal primaries was 22 months (range, 9-60 months) and 30 months (range, 12-58 months) for ovarian cancer. CONCLUSION Simultaneous resection of hepatic and peritoneal metastases seems to provide a survival benefit for selected patients and is associated with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. Knowledge of patients and operative factors linked to morbidity will help to provide a strict selection process and a safer surgical procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard treatment for colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis typically involves cytoreductive surgery, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and if possible, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. However, a substantial percentage of patients never receive adjuvant chemotherapy because of postoperative complications. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy could be beneficial in this setting, so we assessed its feasibility and safety when used before cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. METHODS In this non-randomized, single-center, observational feasibility study, patients were scheduled to receive six cycles of capecitabine and oxaliplatin before cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. Computed tomography was performed after the third and sixth chemotherapy cycles to evaluate tumor response, and patients underwent cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC if there were no pulmonary and/or hepatic metastases. Postoperative complications, graded according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, were compared with those of a historic control group that received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. RESULTS Of the 14 patients included in the study, 4 and 3 had to terminate neoadjuvant chemotherapy early because of toxicity and tumor progression, respectively. Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC were performed in eight patients, and the timing and severity of complications were comparable to those of patients in the historic control group treated without neoadjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSION Patients with peritoneal metastases due to colorectal carcinoma can be treated safely with neoadjuvant chemotherapy before definitive therapy with cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peritoneal metastasis (PM) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) without distant spread are rare. The related prognosis is poor without standard treatment available. The role of cytoreduction surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is poorly documented. METHODS An international multicentric cohort was constituted by retrospective analysis of 21 patients undergoing CRS/HIPEC for PM of HCC between 1992 and 2016 from 10 reference centers of PSOGI. Data on clinical features, treatment strategies, and survival outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS The median time interval from the diagnosis of PM to the procedure was 4.5 months. The median peritoneal cancer index was 14. Sixteen patients had complete cytoreduction (CCR0-1). Ten patients had grades 3 to 4 complications. The median duration of follow-up was 52.2 months. The median OS was 46.7 months. The projected 3y-OS and 5y-OS were 88.9 and 49.4% respectively. The median OS for patients with CCR0-1 resection was not reached whereas it was 5.9 months for those with CCR2-3 resection after CRS (p = 0.0005). The median RFS was 26.3 months and projected RFS at 3 years of 36.5 months Three prognostic factors were associated with improved RFS in the univariate analysis: preoperative chemotherapy (p = 0.0156), PCI >15 (p = 0.009), Number of chemotherapy agents used for HIPEC (p = 0.005). CONCLUSION CRS/HIPEC is a safe and effective approach in selected patients with PM of HCC. CRS/HIPEC gives the patient a chance for a good relapse free and overall survival and should be considered as an option.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to examine the outcomes of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM) of advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Materials and Methods Between May 2015 and June 2017, 38 CRS and HIPEC procedures were performed in patients with PM of AGC at the Dankook University Hospital. We prospectively collected and analyzed data regarding PM grade, morbidity and mortality rates, and short-term follow-up results (median, 13.5 months). Results The mean peritoneal cancer index was 15 (range, 0-39). Complete cytoreduction was achieved in 21 patients (55.2%), whereas complications occurred in 16 (42.1%) and 2 (5.7%) patients died. The overall median patient survival time was 19 months. The patients who underwent complete cytoreduction had a median survival time of 26 months, which was significantly longer than the median survival time of 16 months in the patients who did not undergo complete cytoreduction (P=0.006). Conclusions CRS with HIPEC may have a beneficial effect in patients with PM of AGC. However, the rates of complications and mortality associated with this combined therapeutic approach are high. Therefore, this treatment should be performed only in selected patients by surgeons experienced in the field of gastric cancer with PM.

Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery plus hypertermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has emerged as a major comprehensive treatment of peritoneal malignancies and is currently the standard of care for appendiceal epithelial neoplasms and pseudomyxoma peritonei syndrome as well as malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. Unfortunately, there are some worldwide variations of the cytoreductive surgery and hypertermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy techniques since no single technique has so far demonstrated its superiority over the others. Therefore, standardization of practices might enhance better comparisons between outcomes. In these settings, the Brazilian Society of Surgical Oncology considered it important to present a proposal for standardizing cytoreductive surgery plus hypertermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy procedures in Brazil, with a special focus on producing homogeneous data for the developing Brazilian register for peritoneal surface malignancies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, selected patients with resectable colorectal peritoneal metastases (CRC-PM) are increasingly treated with a combination therapy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The aim of this study was to investigate the current worldwide practice. METHODS HIPEC experts from 19 countries were invited through the Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International (PSOGI) to complete an online survey concerning their personal expertise and current hospital and countrywide practice. RESULTS It is estimated that currently more than 3800 patients with CRC-PM (synchronous and metachronous) are annually treated with CRS and HIPEC in 430 centers. Integration of CRS and HIPEC in national guidelines varies, resulting in large treatment disparities between countries. Amongst the experts, there was general agreement on issues related to indication, surgical technique and follow up but less on systemic chemotherapy or proactive strategies. CONCLUSION This international survey demonstrates that CRS and HIPEC is now performed on a large scale for CRC-PM patients. Variation in treatment may result in heterogeneity in surgical and oncological outcomes, emphasising the necessity to reach consensus on several issues of this comprehensive procedure. Future initiatives directed at achieving an international consensus statement are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Uterine sarcomas (USs) are characterized by poor response to systemic chemotherapy and high recurrence rates. This study evaluates whether the use of cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) confers survival benefit in comparison with conventional treatment modalities in patients with recurrent US. METHODS/MATERIALS A retrospective analysis of patients with recurrent US at a single institution for an 11-year study period was performed. All women with a pathologic diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma, adenosarcoma, endometrial stromal sarcoma, or undifferentiated US were identified. Overall and disease-free survival was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Comparisons between the study groups were performed with the log-rank test and Cox regression. RESULTS A total of 26 patients were identified. Five patients received chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy without surgical intervention, 14 patients underwent surgery alone or a combination of surgery and adjuvant systemic chemotherapy, and 7 patients received cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC. There was no treatment-related mortality in any group, and only 1 patient had grade III-IV surgical complications. Median disease-free survival was 2.4 months for patients with nonsurgical treatments, 5.3 months for patients treated with conventional surgery, and 11.3 months for patients treated with HIPEC. Median overall survival was 35.9 months for patients treated with conventional surgery and 43.8 months for patients treated with HIPEC. CONCLUSIONS Our study is the first to compare survival outcomes of HIPEC versus conventional therapies for recurrent US and is suggestive of treatment benefit. Further studies with more patients and longer follow-up to evaluate the role of HIPEC in management of this disease are warranted.

Abstract
Peritoneal sarcomatosis from uterine sarcoma is a rare disease with no effective treatment and poor prognosis. Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has successful results in peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastrointestinal/gynecological origins. We show that CRS/HIPEC is safe, feasible, and may benefit selected patients with peritoneal sarcomatosis from uterine sarcoma.
