Abstract
This study aimed to explore the association between the quantitative characteristics of dual-energy spectral CT and cytoreduction surgery outcome in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). In this prospective observational study, patients with advanced EOC (federation of gynecology and obstetrics stage III-IV) treated in the Department of Gynecological Oncology at our Hospital between June 2021 and March 2022 were enrolled. All participants underwent dual-energy spectral computed tomography (DECT) scanning 2 weeks before cytoreductive surgery. The quantitative data included peritoneal cancer index (PCI) determined by DECT, CT value at 70 keV, normalized iodine concentration, normalized water concentration, effective atomic number (effective-Z), and slopes of the spectral attenuation curves (slope λ Hounsfield unit). Fifty-five participants were included. The patients were 57.2 ± 9.8 years of age, and 72.7% were menopausal. The maximal diameter of tumors was 8.6 (range, 2.9-19.7) cm, and 76.4% were high-grade serous carcinomas. Optimal cytoreduction was achieved in 43 patients (78.2%). Compared with the optimal cytoreductive group, the suboptimal cytoreductive group showed a higher PCI (median, 21 vs 6, P < .001), higher 70 keV CT value (69.5 ± 16.6 vs 57.1 ± 13.0, P = .008), and higher slope λ Hounsfield unit (1.89 ± 0.66 vs 1.39 ± 0.60, P = .015). The multivariable analysis showed that the PCI (OR = 1.74, 95%CI: 1.24-2.44, P = .001) and 70 keV CT value (OR = 1.07, 95%CI: 1.01-1.13, P = .023) were independently associated with a suboptimal cytoreductive surgery. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of PCI and 70 keV CT value was 0.903 (95%CI: 0.805-1.000, P = .000) and 0.740 (95%CI: 0.581-0.899, P = .012), respectively. High PCI and 70 keV CT value are independently associated with suboptimal cytoreductive surgery in patients with advanced EOC. The PCI determined by DECT might be a better predictor for suboptimal cytoreduction.

The impact on postoperative outcomes of intraoperative fluid management strategies during cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:1474-1480. [PMID: 36898899 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2023.03.003] [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: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of intraoperative fluid management during cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) on postoperative outcomes has been poorly investigated. This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the impact of intraoperative fluid management strategy on postoperative outcomes and survival. METHODS 509 patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC at Uppsala University Hospital/Sweden 2004-2017 were categorized into two groups according to the intraoperative fluid management strategy: pre-goal directed therapy (pre-GDT) and goal directed therapy (GDT), where a hemodynamic monitor (CardioQ or FloTrac/Vigileo) was used to optimize fluid management. Impact on morbidity, postoperative hemorrhage, length-of-stay and survival was analyzed. RESULTS The pre-GDT group received higher fluid volume compared to the GDT group (mean 19.9 vs. 16.2 ml/kg/h, p < 0.001). Overall postoperative morbidity Grade III-V was higher in the GDT group (30% vs. 22%, p = 0.03). Multivariable adjusted odds ratio (OR) for Grade III-V morbidity was 1.80 (95%CI 1.10-3.10, p = 0.02) in the GDT group. Numerically, more cases of postoperative hemorrhage were found in the GDT group (9% vs. 5%, p = 0.09), but no correlation was observed in the multivariable analysis 1.37 (95%CI 0.64-2.95, p = 0.40). An oxaliplatin regimen was a significant risk factor for postoperative hemorrhage (p = 0.03). Mean length of stay was shorter in the GDT group (17 vs. 26 days, p < 0.0001). Survival did not differ between the groups. CONCLUSION While GDT increased the risk for postoperative morbidity, it was associated with shortened hospital stay. Intraoperative fluid management during CRS and HIPEC did not affect the postoperative risk for hemorrhage, while the use of an oxaliplatin regimen did.

[PMID: 36579503 PMCID: PMC9693328 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12111790] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Uterine canceris one of the most common pelvic tumors in females. Advanced stage uterine cancer only represents 15% of newly diagnosed cases; however, they are related with poor prognosis. Our aim was to analyze the benefits of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in peritoneal carcinomatosis due to uterine cancer. METHODS At the Istanbul Umraniye Training and Research Hospital, Surgical Oncology Clinic, morbidity, overall survival and survival without progression were analyzed over the 5-year follow up. Twenty-two cases who had undergone cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy due to uterine-peritoneal carcinomatosis were included in this study. Cases were followed up in terms of postoperative morbidity-mortality, disease-free survival and overall survival. The cut off value for the peritoneal carcinomatosis index score was set at 15. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy consisting of cisplatin and doxorubicin was applied to all patients for 60 min after the suturation of the abdomen. RESULTS Median age of the patients was 64.6 (43-72). Average PCI score was 12.8 (3-15). CC score was 0 in 16 (72.7%) cases, 1 in 3 cases and 2 in 3 cases. Of these patients, 12 of them were previously operated upon. Median stay at the hospital was 13.1 days. No major complications due to chemotherapy were reported. A Clavien-Dindo Grade 3 complication was observed in seven (31.8%) patients. Mortality was not observed in patients during their stay at the hospital. The 5-year disease-free survival and overall survival rates were 36.8 (36%) months and 45.3 (57%) months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We think that due to longer disease-free survival and overall survival, cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy should be preferred in peritoneal carcinomatosis due to uterine cancer patients having low peritoneal carcinomatosis index scores and manageable complication rates. However, prospective randomizedtrials with a high number of cases are needed for this subject.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the most common cause of death due to gynecologic malignancies, with more than 70% of patients presenting with advanced stage disease at the time of diagnosis. The extent and distribution of tumor guide primary treatment selection and clinical management. While primary cytoreductive surgery with complete tumor resection improves survival, patients with extensive peritoneal disease may benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy first to reduce tumor burden followed by interval cytoreductive surgery. Imaging plays an essential role in triaging patients including selecting patients who may benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy before cytoreductive surgery. Interestingly, there are no universally established criteria to predict resectability and local practices depend on local guidelines and surgeon preferences. Nevertheless, certain anatomical tumor locations are known to be difficult to resect and are associated with suboptimal cytoreduction or require special surgical considerations. This review discusses the recent advances in the initial management of patients with ovarian cancer, a practical approach to the assessment and communication of peritoneal metastases locations on CT and MRI. It also explores recent advances in genomics profiling and radiomics that may influence the initial management of these patients.

Evaluation of patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer before primary treatment: correlation between tumour burden assessed by [ 18F]FDG PET/CT volumetric parameters and tumour markers HE4 and CA125. Eur Radiol 2021; 32:2200-2208. [PMID: 34586465 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-021-08305-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2021] [Revised: 08/11/2021] [Accepted: 08/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Accurate assessment of disease extent is required to select the best primary treatment for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer patients. Estimation of tumour burden is challenging and it is usually performed by means of a surgical procedure. Imaging techniques and tumour markers can help to estimate tumour burden non-invasively. 2-[18F]FDG PET/CT allows the evaluation of the whole-body disease. This study aimed to correlate HE4 and CA125 serum concentrations with tumour burden evaluated by volumetric 2-[18F]FDG PET/CT parameters in advanced high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS We included 66 patients who underwent 2-[18F]FDG PET/CT and serum tumour markers determination before primary treatment. Volumes of interest were delimited in every pathological uptake. Whole-body metabolic tumour volume (wb_MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (wb_TLG) were calculated summing up every VOI's MTV value. SUVmax thresholds were set at 40% (MTV40 and TLG40) and 50% (MTV50 and TLG50). In addition, four VOI subgroups were defined: peritoneal carcinomatosis, retroperitoneal nodes, supradiaphragmatic nodes, and distant metastases. MTV and TLG were calculated for each group by adding up the corresponding MTV values. TLG was calculated likewise. RESULTS wb_MTV and wb_TLG were found to be significantly correlated with serum CA125 and HE4 concentrations. The strongest correlation was observed between HE4 and wb_MTV40 (r = 0.62, p < 0.001). Pearson's correlation coefficients between peritoneal carcinomatosis MTV40 and tumour markers were 0.61 (p < 0.0001) and 0.29 (p = 0.02) for HE4 and CA125 respectively. None of these tumour markers showed a positive correlation with tumour load outside the abdominal cavity assessed by volumetric parameters. CONCLUSION HE4 performs better than CA125 to predict metabolic tumour burden in high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer before primary treatment. 2-[18F]FDG PET/CT volumetric parameters arise as feasible tools for the objective assessment of tumour load and its anatomical distribution. These results support the usefulness of HE4 and PET/CT to improve the stratification of these patients in clinical practice. KEY POINTS • In patients with high-grade advanced ovarian epithelial carcinoma, both CA125 and HE4 correlate to whole-body tumour burden assessed by PET/CT before primary treatment. • HE4 estimates peritoneal disease much better than CA125. • PET/CT volumetric parameters arise as feasible tools for the objective assessment of tumour load and its anatomical distribution.

Abstract
Background Mesothelial E- and P-selectins substantially mediate the intraperitoneal spread of Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) cells in xenograft models. In the absence of selectins in the host, the integrin subunit alpha-V (ITGAV, CD51) was upregulated in the remaining metastatic deposits. Here we present the first experimental study to investigate if ITGAV plays a functional role in PDA tumor growth and progression with a particular focus on intraperitoneal carcinomatosis. Methods Knockdown of ITGAV was generated using an RNA interference-mediated approach in two PDA cell lines. Tumor growth, intraperitoneal and distant metastasis were analyzed in a xenograft model. Cell lines were characterized in vitro. Gene expression of the xenograft tumors was analyzed. Patient samples were histologically classified and associations to survival were evaluated. Results The knockdown of ITGAV in PDA cells strongly reduces primary tumor growth, peritoneal carcinomatosis and spontaneous pulmonary metastasis. ITGAV activates latent TGF-β and thereby drives epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Combined depletion of ITGAV on the tumor cells and E- and P-selectins in the tumor-host synergistically almost abolishes intraperitoneal spread. Accordingly, high expression of ITGAV in PDA cells was associated with reduced survival in patients. Conclusion Combined depletion of ITGAV in PDA cells and E- and P-selectins in host mice massively suppresses intraperitoneal carcinomatosis of PDA cells xenografted into immunodeficient mice, confirming the hypothesis of a partly redundant adhesion cascade of metastasizing cancer cells. Our data strongly encourage developing novel therapeutic approaches for the combined targeting of E- and P-selectins and ITGAV in PDA.

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.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is a major cause of cancer related-death in women around the world. Recent statistics on the worldwide cancer burden by the International Agency for the research on Cancer revealed ovarian cancer being both the eighth most frequent malignancy in the west countries. Peritoneal metastasis from ovarian cancer is a major challenge in the clinical management. Despite the evidence of the benefit of Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in ovarian cancer with peritoneal deposits it has not been widely adopted, mainly due to logistical difficulties and less to the logoregional morbidity as pain. The role of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients during the end of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) is a more tolerable feasible method with potential advantages as drug distribution, combination with hyperthermia and application before tumor regrowth. The aim of this article is to investigate the potential benefits of HIPEC explains the rationale, data of major clinical trials meta-analyses and recent randomized trial are presented and explains the indications patient selection and the best time to applicate of this aggressive logo regional treatment.

Abstract
Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in conjunction with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) holds promise as an adjunctive treatment strategy in malignancies affecting the peritoneal surface, effectively targeting remaining microscopic residual tumor. HIPEC increases concentrations of chemotherapy directly within the peritoneal cavity compared with the intravenous route and reduces the systemic side effects associated with prolonged adjuvant intraperitoneal exposure. Furthermore, hyperthermia increases tissue penetration and is synergistic with the therapeutic chemotherapy agents used. In ovarian cancer, evidence is building for its use in both primary and recurrent scenarios. In this review, we examine the history of HIPEC, the techniques used, and the available data guiding its use in primary and recurrent ovarian cancer.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of MDCT and laparoscopy in the prediction of peritoneal carcinomatosis index score. Reproducibility of MDCT interpretation was also assessed. METHODS This prospective study included 85 ovarian cancer patients underwent MDCT and diagnostic laparoscopy before cytoreductive surgery. We calculated the accuracy of diagnostic modalities in the calculation of the peritoneal cancer index score (PCI). Radiologist interobserver agreement was calculated using kappa statistics. RESULTS Nine hundred-thirty (84.2%) of the 1105 regions had peritoneal deposits at exploratory laparotomy. Computed tomography (CT) and laparoscopy sensitivity were 94.9%, 98.3%, specificity 86.7%, 80.4%, PPV 97.9 %, 96.8%, NPV 72.2%, 88.8 %, and accuracy 93.8 %, 95.7%, respectively. However, computed tomography (CT) diagnostic performance is less accurate than laparoscopy in pelvic and small intestinal regions; no statistically significant differences were evident regarding total PCI score compared to surgery (p> 0.05). CT and laparoscopy correctly depicted peritoneal carcinomatosis in 88.2%, 90.6% of patients, respectively. Optimal cytoreduction was achieved in 68 (80%) patients. CONCLUSION Both CT and laparoscopy seems to be effective tools for assessment of peritoneal carcinomatosis using the PCI score. Dedicated MDCT protocol with routine use of a standardized PCI form may provide better comprehensive multi-regional analysis that may help surgeons referring patients to the best treatment option. Laparoscopy is a valuable tool in cases with a high risk of suboptimal cytoreduction related to disease extent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selection of patients for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) continues to evolve. We hypothesized that adjuvant HIPEC for patients at high-risk of peritoneal progression is safe and associated with favorable outcomes. METHODS The institutional database of a high-volume center was queried for patients with high-risk disease undergoing HIPEC with a peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) of 0. High-risk patients were defined as those with ruptured primary tumors or locally advanced (T4) disease. RESULTS 37 patients underwent adjuvant HIPEC, with a median follow-up of 5.2 years. 54% had low-grade (LG) tumors while 46% had high-grade (HG) tumors. No patients underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy, while eleven patients (32.4%) received adjuvant chemotherapy. There were no perioperative mortalities, and the overall complication rate was 43%. For the entire cohort, five year recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were 77% and 100%, respectively. Five year RFS and OS were 75% and 100% for LG patients and 81% and 100% for HG patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Adjuvant HIPEC for patients at high-risk of peritoneal progression, with PCI 0, is safe and associated with favorable long-term survival. Additional prospective investigation is needed to identify patient populations who may benefit most from HIPEC.

Abstract
Objective No studies to date have focused on the safety of coloanal/ileoanal anastomosis (CAIAA) in cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC), which is associated with severe morbidity and mortality. We herein present the outcomes of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) who underwent CAIAA. Methods We evaluated the prospectively collected data from 20 patients with PC who underwent CRS + HIPEC with respect to the primary disease, synchronous resections, intraoperative chemotherapy regimen, timing of protective ileostomy closure, and overall postoperative complications. Results Most patients underwent CRS + HIPEC and CAIAA for PC due to colorectal cancer. Coloanal anastomosis was performed in 15 (75%) patients, and J-pouch ileoanal anastomosis was performed in 5 (25%) patients. No anastomosis-related complications occurred in any patients who underwent CAIAA; however, one patient died of pulmonary embolism on postoperative day 7. Conclusions CAIAA is associated with serious complications even after performing benign colorectal surgery. However, it may be challenging for surgeons to simultaneously perform CAIAA in patients with PC who undergo CRS + HIPEC. We emphasize that this procedure can be safely performed with experienced surgical teams by using a multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Clinical experience in Western Europe suggests that cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are promising methods in the management of gastric cancer (GC) with peritoneal metastases. However, there are almost no data on such treatment results in patient from Central-Eastern European population. METHODS A retrospective cooperative study was performed at 6 Central-Eastern European HIPEC centers. HIPEC was used in 117 patients for the following indications: treatment of GC with limited overt peritoneal metastases (n = 70), adjuvant setting after radical gastrectomy (n = 37) and palliative approach for elimination of severe ascites without gastrectomy (n = 10). RESULTS Postoperative morbidity and mortality rates were 29.1% and 5.1%, respectively. Median overall survival in the groups with therapeutic, adjuvant, and palliative indications was 12.6, 34, and 3.5 months. The only long-term survivors occurred in the group with peritoneal cancer index (PCI) of 0-6 points without survival difference in groups with PCI 7-12 vs PCI 13 or more points. CONCLUSIONS GC patients with limited peritoneal metastases can benefit from CRS + HIPEC. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy could be an effective method of adjuvant treatment of GC with a high risk of intraperitoneal progression. No long-term survival may be expected after palliative approach to HIPEC.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate whether extending the MRI scan to include the abdomen at the time of adnexal mass characterization could replace additional CT for peritoneal cancer index (PCI) assessment. METHODS After institutional review board approval for this prospective study, 36 consecutive females with ovarian and FT malignancies were included. All patients signed an informed consent. Patients underwent preoperative CT (32 patients) and MRI (36 patients). Images were interpreted by 2 independent observers. Surgical data were available in 27 patients. Region-by-region analysis was performed for detection rates of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Inter-observer agreement for each region was evaluated by kappa statistics. Radiologic PCI was calculated by CT and MRI independently and inter-observer agreement for CT and MRI as well as agreement between radiologic and surgical PCI were evaluated by weighted-kappa statistics. RESULTS On region-by-region analysis, the highest detection rates of PC were noted at the central abdomen and pelvis. Detection rates were higher by MRI than CT, mainly in bowel serosal surface, pelvis, and right upper abdomen regions. Inter-observer agreement of MRI was higher than CT in most regions. The median PCI by CT was 5 and 4 for the first and second observers (range 0-21 for both observers), respectively. The median PCI by MRI was 6 (range 0-23 for both observers). The inter-observer agreement of PCI was excellent by both CT and MRI (k = 0.876 and k = 0.912, respectively). The agreement between CT and surgical PCI was 0.660 and 0.590 for the first and second observers, respectively. The agreement between MRI and surgical PCI was 0.797 and 0.798 for the first and second observers, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Extending MRI scan to include the abdomen at the time of adnexal mass characterization allows accurate estimation of PC, with better results than CT, obviating the need for dedicated CT scan of abdomen and pelvis for imaging of PC.

Abstract
Gynaecological malignancies are the most common malignancies in women and also an important public health issue. In developing countries, there is a paucity of screening facilities and cancer awareness, so patients present at an advanced stage of disease, which severely limits the prognosis and clinical outcome. Among the gynaecological malignancies, ovarian malignancy has the second highest incidence in women according to the incidences. Ovarian malignancy is usually diagnosed at the advanced stages, and to improve the patient’s survival, debulking surgery is very important. Advanced-stage disease is treated with either debulking surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy or initial neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by debulking surgery. Imaging is very important in patient selection, in determining who will benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy just before debulking surgery. This article highlights the role of computed tomography (CT) in the detection of patterns of spread of ovarian malignancy, important for staging and management.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cytopenia after hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) has been reported in non-comparative studies with various chemotherapeutic regimens. This study compared the incidence of leukopenia and thrombocytopenia in patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC and received melphalan or cisplatin plus mitomycin-c (CIS + MMC). METHODS This retrospective study included patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from March 2011 to March 2017 and received melphalan 60 mg/m2 or CIS 100 mg/m2 combined with MMC 30 mg/m2. Incidences and severity of leukopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia were compared between groups. RESULTS This study included 46 patients who received CIS + MMC and 35 patients who received melphalan. The leukopenia incidence was 25.7% in the melphalan group and 17.3% in the CIS + MMC group (P = 0.362), with one patient (2.8%) in the melphalan group developed grade V leukopenia. The number of days to leukocyte nadir was 32.8 days for CIS + MMC group compared to 9.8 days for melphalan group(P = 0.035). Thrombocytopenia occurred at a similar rate in the melphalan (60%) and CIS + MMC (68.8%) groups (P = 0.4). Grade III thrombocytopenia developed in 3.2% and 5% of patients in the melphalan and the CIS + MMC groups, respectively. Neutropenia did not occur in any patient. In multivariate analysis, leukopenia predictors were female gender (P = 0.047) and baseline leukocyte counts (P = 0.029). Baseline platelet count predicted thrombocytopenia (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Melphalan and CIS + MMC regimens were associated with comparable incidences of leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. Severe leukopenia and severe thrombocytopenia were rare following CRS/HIPEC using both chemotherapy regimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During the Fifth International Workshop on Peritoneal Surface Malignancy in Milan in 2008, a consensus was reached that contrast-enhanced CT (ceCT) was the principal imaging modality for patients being evaluated for treatment of peritoneal metastases. This fact being accepted, the radiologic criteria for that may exclude patients from a high value cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic perioperative chemotherapy (HIPEC) have not been reliably determined. METHODS From a consensus of surgeons and radiologists, radiologic images were selected and their determinant radiologic characteristics described. The anatomic pathology causing the abnormal images were identified and characterised. The cytoreductive surgical procedures that may, in selected patients, result in a complete resection of the pathology identified were presented. RESULTS Radiographs of 15 CT images that cause concern when a patient is being evaluated for CRS were listed. The anatomic pathology these images define and possible surgical resections they require were reviewed. The surgical implications of the absence or presence of a single, or of multiple concerning CT features was extracted from the surgical and radiologic literature. CONCLUSIONS There is a definite need to identify new pre-operative imaging parameters to define optimal indication of CRS with HIPEC. The presence of a single concerning radiologic feature is associated with the possibility of an adverse outcome or technically more complex resections associated with increased morbidity and mortality. If two or more of the concerning radiologic features are described from the CT, suboptimal cytoreduction will usually occur.

Abstract
RATIONALE Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an unusual clinical condition, and the appendix and ovaries are reported as the primary sites. PATIENT CONCERNS A 44-year-old man who was reported a 3-month history of lower abdominal pain and distention, along with increased abdominal girth, was admitted with a palpable tender mass in the central lower abdomen. DIAGNOSIS Ultrasonography showed a large well-circumscribed cystic-solid mass with lobulated margin, extending from the anterosuperior dome of the urinary bladder to the anterior abdominal wall. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a midline heterogeneous, hypodense, irregular polycystic-solid mass adjacent to the anterior wall of the abdomen and anterior to the dome of the urinary bladder. fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography/CT showed intense fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the thickened wall of the mass. Intraperitoneal laparoscopic exploration also revealed a midline abdominal mass adjacent to the dome of the urinary bladder. Laparotomy showed that the mass originated from the dome of the urinary bladder and was disconnected with the urinary bladder lumen. The final histopathological diagnosis was urachal mucinous adenocarcinoma associated with high-grade pseudomyxoma peritonei. INTERVENTIONS The patient underwent surgical cytoreductive procedure and the perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy. OUTCOMES The patient made an uneventful recovery, and 7 months later had no recurrence. LESSONS The urachus is a tubular structure, which extends medially from the apex of the bladder to the allantoid during fetal development, and it usually obliterates after birth. Urachal remnants can cause urachal carcinoma or bladder cancers. Pseudomyxoma peritonei originating from mucinous neoplasm of the urachus is extremely rare.

Abstract
Improved oncological outcomes after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in highly selected patients have been well documented. The extensive nature of the procedure adversely affects quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study is to longitudinally evaluate QoL following CRS/HIPEC. This is a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database of patients with peritoneal malignancies undergoing CRS/HIPEC. Clinicopathological data, oncologic outcomes, and QoL were analyzed preoperatively and post-operatively at 2 weeks, and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Colorectal instrument was used to determine changes in QoL after CRS/HIPEC and the impact of early recurrence (<12 months) on QoL. Thirty-six patients underwent CRS/HIPEC over 36 months. The median peritoneal cancer index score was 18 and the completeness of cytoreduction-0/1 rate was 97.2 per cent. Postoperative major morbidity was 16.7 per cent with one perioperative death. Disease-free survival was 12.6 months in patients with high-grade tumors versus 31.0 months in those with low-grade tumors (P = 0.03). QoL decreased postoperatively and improved to baseline in six months. Patients with early recurrence had a decrease in global QoL compared with preoperative QoL at 6 (P < 0.03) and 12 months (P < 0.05). This correlation was not found in patients who had not recurred. Patients who undergo CRS/HIPEC have a decrease in QoL that plateaus in 3 to 6 months. Early recurrence adversely impacts QoL at 6 and 12 months. This study emphasizes the importance of patient selection for CRS/HIPEC. The expected QoL trajectory in patients at risk for early recurrence must be carefully weighed against the potential oncological benefit of CRS/HIPEC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this article is to discuss the role of the radiologist in the treatment of peritoneal cancer, with focus placed on advanced treatment options and selection of patients with resectable disease for whom complete cytoreduction can be achieved. CONCLUSION Peritoneal cancers traditionally have been associated with significant morbidity and universal mortality; however, the management of such cancers has evolved substantially. Advanced treatment options, including cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy, are associated with significantly improved long-term patient survival. To ensure that patients benefit from aggressive multimodality treatments, the radiologist plays a pivotal role in the multidisciplinary team to ensure careful patient selection, identifying individuals with resectable disease for whom complete cytoreduction can be achieved.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis has until recently been considered uniformly fatal; it results in intestinal obstructions, eventually leading progression of disease and death. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy have become important options for patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Completeness of cytoreduction is a major determinant of survival. Frequently, the porta hepatis and the lesser sac are massively involved by tumor. Encasement of portal triad, lesser omentum, retrohepatic vena cava, duodenum, and stomach is frequently seen. The proximity to major portal structures as well as the retrohepatic vena cava makes this dissection challenging. This is the area where meticulous surgical technique and expertise are necessary to obtain complete removal of tumor. Some specific technical considerations are important to assure that all tumor is safely removed.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is the most frequent pattern of metastasis in stage IV gastric cancer (GC). The study aims to investigate the efficacy of gastrectomy in GC with PC. Clinicopathological data of 518 stage IV GC patients were retrospectively collected in Nanfang Hospital. Among all cases, 312 GC patients with PC (without other site of metastasis) were eligible. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the independent prognostic factors. Propensity score matching analysis was performed to balance the characteristics and treatment‐related factors. There was a significantly improved overall survival in gastrectomy group (148 patients) compared with nonresection group (164 patients) (P < 0.001). The 1‐year and 2‐year survival rates were 49.8% and 21.5% in gastrectomy group, whereas 28.8% and 9.7% in nonresection group, respectively. Further analysis showed that gastrectomy had also improved survival in P1 (P = 0.017) and P2 stage patients (P < 0.001), but not P3 stage (P = 0.495). The modality of gastrectomy plus chemotherapy plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) showed an optimum survival. In addition, P3 disease, nongastrectomy, nonchemotherapy, non‐HIPEC, and age ≥ 60 years were independently associated with poor survival. The gastrectomy plus chemotherapy plus HIPEC modality showed a significant survival benefit for gastric adenocarcinoma patients, particularly in those with P1 and P2 diseases.

Abstract
Background This work was to evaluate the perioperative safety and efficacy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with lobaplatin and docetaxel in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from gastrointestinal and gynecological cancers. Methods Patients were treated by CRS + HIPEC with lobaplatin 50 mg/m2 and docetaxel 60 mg/m2 in 6000 mL of normal saline at 43 ± 0.5 °C for 60 min. Vital signs were recorded for 6 days after CRS + HIPEC procedures. Perioperative serious adverse events (SAE), hematological, hepatic, renal, and electrolytes parameters, the changes in serum tumor markers (TM) before and after operation, patient recovery, and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. Results One hundred consecutive PC patients underwent 105 CRS + HIPEC procedures and postoperative chemotherapy. The median CRS + HIPEC duration was 463 (range, 245–820) min, and the highest temperature and heart rate during six postoperative days were 38.6 °C (median 37.5 °C) and 124 bpm (median 100 bpm), respectively. The 30-day perioperative SAE occurred in 16 (15.2 %) and mortality occurred in 2 (1.9 %) patients. Most routine blood laboratory tests at 1 week after surgery turned normal. Among 82 cases with increased preoperative TM CEA, CA125, and CA199, 71 cases had TM levels reduced or turned normal. Median time to nasogastric tube removal was 5 (range, 3–23) days, to liquid food intake 6 (range, 4–24) days, and to abdominal suture removal 15 (range, 10–30) days. At the median follow-up of 19.7 (range, 7.5–89.2) months, the median OS was 24.2 (95 % CI, 15.0–33.4) months, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates were 77.5, 32.5, and 19.8 %, respectively. Univariate analysis identified five independent prognostic factors on OS: the origin of PC, peritoneal cancer index, completeness of CRS, cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy, and SAE. Conclusions CRS + HIPEC with lobaplatin and docetaxel to treat PC is a feasible procedure with acceptable safety and can prolong the survival in selected patients with PC.

Abstract
As per incidence, ovarian carcinoma is the second most common gynaecological malignancy in women. In spite of advanced technology, patient awareness and effective screening methods, epithelial ovarian cancer is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage (stage III). Surgical debulking of disease is mainstay of improving the patient survival even in advanced stages. Thus exact delineation of cancer spread in the abdominal cavity guides the surgeon prior to the surgery, help them to decide resectability of lesion and plan for further need of other surgical speciality or need of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Imaging particularly well-planned contrast-enhanced computed tomography answers most of the queries raised by the treating surgeon. The aim of this article is to review the way ovarian carcinoma spread in the peritoneal cavity and to stress the accurate interpretation of cancer deposits on imaging which can help the treating team to reach optimal management of patients.

Correlation of Radiologic with Surgical Peritoneal Cancer Index Scores in Patients with Pseudomyxoma Peritonei and Peritoneal Carcinomatosis: How Well Can We Predict Resectability? J Gastrointest Surg 2016; 20:307-12.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) and peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) arises from primary or secondary peritoneal cancer and can be treated with complete surgical removal of disease. Suitability for surgery is based on a peritoneal cancer index (PCI), with a PCI ≥ 20 representing unresectable disease. AIMS Compare preoperative imaging with surgical findings based on PCI. METHODS All cases of patients with PMP and PC undergoing cytoreductive surgery ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) between 2010 and 2014 were included. Two staff radiologists blinded to surgical PCI scores retrospectively reviewed imaging studies to calculate corresponding radiologic PCI scores for each patient. Correlation between radiologic PCI and surgical PCI, as obtained from operative reports, was assessed using Spearman's rho correlation coefficients. Preoperative assessment of a PCI cutoff of 20 on imaging was compared with actual surgical PCI using sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values. RESULTS Forty-two patients had a mean surgical PCI ± SEM score of 15.1 ± 1.3 and mean radiologic PCI of 15.5 ± 1.5. The most common tumor histologies were appendiceal (60 %) and colon (33 %) adenocarcinoma and were of low tumor grade (67 %). Correlation between individual radiologists and surgical PCI was 0.59 and 0.62, respectively (all p < 0.001). When mean radiologic PCI was used, this correlation with surgical PCI improved to 0.64 and to 0.65 when good quality studies only were considered (all p < 0.001). Radiologic PCI score had a sensitivity of 76 %, a specificity of 69 %, positive predictive value of 85 %, and a negative predictive value of 56 % when compared with the surgical PCI. In patients with a radiologic PCI score ≥ 20, 6/13 (46 %) still achieved adequate cytoreduction. CONCLUSIONS Good quality cross-sectional imaging, combined with overreading and formal assessment of all components of the PCI score yields the best correlation with actual surgical findings. Although preoperative assessment of PCI ≥ 20 was reasonably accurate, using this cutoff to assess resectability is problematic as almost half of these patients were still able to undergo adequate cytoreduction. Better assessment of resectability is needed preop, either by refinement of the PCI criteria or routine staging laparoscopy.

Abstract
For a long time, treatment of peritoneal metastases (PM) was mostly palliative and thus, this status was link with “terminal status/despair”. The current multimodal treatment strategy, consisting of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), has been strenuously achieved over time, but seems to be the best treatment option for PM patients. As we reviewed the literature data, we could emphasize some milestones and also, controversies in the history of proposed multimodal treatment and thus, outline the philosophy of this approach, which seems to be an unusual one indeed. Initially marked by nihilism and fear, but benefiting from a remarkable joint effort of human and material resources (multi-center and -institutional research), over a period of 30 years, CRS and HIPEC found their place in the treatment of PM. The next 4 years were dedicated to the refinement of the multimodal treatment, by launching research pathways. In selected patients, with requires training, it demonstrated a significant survival results (similar to the Hepatic Metastases treatment), with acceptable risks and costs. The main debates regarding CRS and HIPEC treatment were based on the oncologists’ perspective and the small number of randomized clinical trials. It is important to statement the PM patient has the right to be informed of the existence of CRS and HIPEC, as a real treatment resource, the decision being made by multidisciplinary teams.

Abstract
Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is the intra-peritoneal accumulation of mucus due to mucinous neoplasia, most often from a ruptured mucinous appendiceal neoplasm. A similar syndrome is caused by appendix cancer and other gastrointestinal malignancies. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) provides long-term survival in selected patients with these conditions. The management of the appendiceal neoplasm prior to development of peritoneal involvement is initially discussed. This is followed by an overview of the management of peritoneal disease caused by appendiceal neoplasms. The principles and basic techniques of CRS and intraperitoneal chemotherapy (both intraoperative and post operative) are then discussed. Survival outcomes from several large studies are summarised. Prognostic factors are also discussed. We report our basic outcome data for the 345 patients with PMP or appendix cancer treated at our institution. Finally, the promising upcoming treatment of mucolytic therapy is discussed. We conclude that appendiceal neoplasms, although rare can cause significant morbidity and mortality. With optimal management long-term survival is possible in the majority of patients. The key to treatment is complete cytoreduction and use of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

Abstract
To meet the needs of patients, Canadian surgical and medical oncology leaders in the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies (psms), together with patient representatives, formed the Canadian HIPEC Collaborative Group (chicg). The group is dedicated to standardizing and improving the treatment of psm in Canada so that access to treatment and, ultimately, the prognosis of Canadian patients with psm are improved. Patients with resectable psm arising from colorectal or appendiceal neoplasms should be reviewed by a multidisciplinary team including surgeons and medical oncologists with experience in treating patients with psm. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy should be offered to appropriately selected patients and performed at experienced centres. The aim of this publication is to present guidelines that we recommend be applied across the country for the treatment of psm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two treatment strategies, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) plus simultaneous versus staged cytoreductive surgery (CRS) in patients with occult peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer (GC). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 26 GC patients who were potential curatively resectable by pre-operative evaluation and found occult peritoneal metastasis by diagnostic laparoscopy. Patients were treated by HIPEC plus either simultaneous CRS (CRS+HIPEC group, n = 11) or staged CRS after systematic chemotherapy (HIPEC+Chemo+CRS group, n = 15). RESULTS There is no mortality observed in both groups. The treatment complications in two group is comparable (P = 0.683), with 26.7% (4/15) in HIPEC+Chemo+CRS group, and 36.4% (4/11) in CRS+HIPEC group, respectively. The compliance of patients undergoing subsequent chemotherapy is higher in HIPEC+Chemo+CRS group (93.3%, 14/15) than that of CRS+HIPEC group (45.5%, 5/11) (P = 0.021). The mean interval time between CRS and first post-CRS systematic chemotherapy were 42.0 ± 12.0 days in HIPEC+Chemo+CRS group versus 69.8 ± 36.3 in CRS+HIPEC group (P = 0.163), respectively. The median OS in the HIPEC+Chemo+CRS group was 25.0 months, while 28.2 months in the CRS+HIPEC group (P = 0.738). CONCLUSION For resectable GC patients with laparoscopic findings of occult peritoneal metastasis, HIPEC plus staged CRS is with better tolerance and compliance than simultaneous CRS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the effect of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis. BACKGROUND CRS and HIPEC is increasingly performed with curative intent for peritoneal carcinomatosis. Significant morbidity rates are reported in the context of limited life-expectancy, necessitating accurate post-operative HRQOL outcome data. METHODS A systematic review of clinical studies published after January 2000 was performed using strict eligibility criteria. Key outcomes measures were post-operative HRQOL compared to pre-operative levels and reference populations. Quality appraisal and data tabulation were performed using pre-determined forms. Data were synthesised by narrative review and random-effects meta-analysis. Tau2 and I2 values and Funnel plots were analysed for consistency and bias. RESULTS 15 studies (1583 patients) were included. HRQOL declines at the 3-4 month time-point before becoming similar or better compared to pre-operative levels at 1 year. The pooled-effects of combined post-operative functional assessment of cancer therapy and European organisation for research and treatment quality of life questionnaire scores were significantly improved from baseline on overall health status (p=0.001) and emotional health (p=0.001). Physical health (p=0.83), social health (p=0.48) and functional health (p=0.24) remain similar. HRQOL after 1 year is less clear, but benefits may persist up to 5 years especially on overall and physical health domains. Evidence is conflicted and inconclusive on HRQOL compared to reference populations. Levels of consistency and bias were acceptable. CONCLUSIONS CRS and HIPEC for peritoneal carcinomatosis can confer small to medium benefits for HRQOL. These results should be interpreted with in caution due to the small studies and absence of more randomised controlled trials.

Abstract
The peritoneal stromal tissue which provides a rich source of growth factors and chemokines is a favorable environment for tumor proliferation. The pathophysiological mechanism of peritoneal carcinomatosis is an individual sequence consisting of genetic and environmental factors and remains controversial. The natural history of the disease reveals a poor median prognosis of approximately 6 mo; however aggressive surgery and multimodal treatment options can improve oncologic outcomes. Considering peritoneal carcinomatosis as though it is a locoregional disease but not a metastatic process, cytoreductive surgery and and intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been a curative option during recent years. Cytoreductive surgery implies a series of visceral resections and peritonectomy procedures. Although the aim of cytoreductive surgery is to eliminate all macroscopic disease, viable tumor cells may remain in the peritoneal cavity. At that point, intraperitoneal chemotherapy can extend the macroscopic disease elimination to microscopic disease elimination. The successful treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis requires a comprehensive management plan including proper patient selection, complete resection of all visible disease, perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy and postoperative systemic chemotherapy. Surgical and oncologic outcomes are strictly associated with extent of the tumor, completeness of cytoreduction and patient-related factors as well as multidisciplinary management and experience of the surgical team. In this review, pathophysiology and current management of peritoneal carcinomatosis originating from gastrointestinal tumors are discussed according to the latest literature.

Abstract
Insufficient drug uptake by solid tumors remains the major problem for systemic chemotherapy. Many studies have demonstrated anticancer drug effects to be dose-dependent, although dose-escalation studies have resulted in limited survival benefit with increased systemic toxicities. One solution to this has been the idea of loco-regional drug treatments, which offer dramatically higher drug concentrations in tumor tissues while minimizing systemic toxicity. Although loco-regional delivery has been most prominent in cancers of the liver, soft tissues and serosal peritoneal malignancies, survival benefits are very far from desirable. This review discusses the evolution of loco-regional treatments, the present approaches and offers rapidly reversible hydrophobization of drugs as the new future direction.

Abstract
Invasive peritoneal disease includes more than just peritoneal carcinomatosis. Although this is the most common aetiology, especially when a primary is found, other conditions may be responsible for peritoneal invasion. A rigorous analysis of CT features taken together with the clinical and biological context usually allows the main differential diagnoses, which entail different types of management, to be drawn out. Pseudomyxoma peritonei, peritoneal lymphomatosis, tuberculosis, peritoneal mesothelioma, diffuse peritoneal leiomyomatosis, and benign splenosis are the main differential diagnoses.

Abstract
Gynecologic cancers are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality for female patients, with an estimated 88,750 new cancer cases and 29,520 deaths in the United States in 2012. To offer the best treatment options to patients it is important that the radiologist, surgeon, radiation oncologist, and gynecologic oncologist work together with a multidisciplinary approach. Using the available diagnostic imaging modalities, the radiologist must give appropriate information to the surgeon in order to plan the best surgical approach and its timing.

Abstract
Background Advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is prone to developing peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). This case-control study was to compare the efficacy and safety of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) versus CRS plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in Chinese patients with CRC PC. Methods The 62 consecutive PC patients were treated with CRS (Control group, n = 29) or CRS + HIPEC (Study group, n = 33). The primary end point was overall survival (OS), the secondary end points were perioperative safety profiles. Results For the comparison of Control versus Study groups, the peritoneal cancer index (PCI) ≤20 was 13 (44.8%) versus 16 (48.5%) patients (P = 0.78), complete cytoreduction (CC0-1) was achieved in 9 (31.0%) versus 14 (42.4%) cases (P = 0.36). At the median OS was 8.5 (95% confidence interval [CI] 4.7–12.4) versus 13.7 (95% CI 10.0–16.5) months (P = 0.02), the 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 27.5% versus 63.6%, 12.0% versus 20.0%, and 0.0% versus 16.0%, respectively. Serious adverse events in postoperative 30 days were 9.4% versus 28.6% (P = 0.11). Multivariate analysis revealed that CRS + HIPEC, CC0-1, adjuvant chemotherapy ≥6 cycles were independent factors for OS benefit. Conclusion CRS + HIPEC could improve OS for CRC PC patients, with acceptable perioperative safety. J. Surg. Oncol 2014; 109:730–739.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with stage IV colorectal cancer and peritoneal carcinomatosis are increasingly treated with curative intent and perioperative systemic chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy. The aim of this study was to analyze the potential impact of bevacizumab on early morbidity after cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal origin. METHODS From 2004 to 2010, in three referral centers, 182 patients with colorectal carcinomatosis were treated with complete cytoreduction followed by HIPEC after either preoperative systemic chemotherapy alone or in combination with bevacizumab. Because there was no control on treatment allocation, propensity score methods were used to control for this bias. RESULTS The median time from discontinuation of bevacizumab to HIPEC was 7 weeks (range 6-10 weeks). Major morbidity was greater in the bevacizumab group (34 vs. 19 %, p = 0.020). Nine patients died postoperatively, 5 (6.2 %) in the bevacizumab group (n = 80) and 4 (3.9 %) in the group treated with chemotherapy alone (n = 102) (p = 0.130). The rate of digestive fistulas was greater in the bevacizumab group, although not statistically significant (18 vs. 10 %, p = 0.300). The effect of bevacizumab on major morbidity (including death) was found to be statistically significant (odds ratio 2.28, 95 % confidence interval 1.05-4.95) (p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Administration of bevacizumab before surgery with complete cytoreduction followed by HIPEC for colorectal carcinomatosis is associated with twofold increased morbidity. The oncologic benefit of bevacizumab before HIPEC remains to be evaluated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selected patients with peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) have been treated effectively by the combination of cytoreduction surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to summarize the treatment outcomes and general considerations regarding definitions and staging systems of current CRS and HIPEC modalities in malignant peritoneal mesothelioma and in secondary peritoneal malignancies such as peritoneal metastasis from appendiceal, colorectal, gastric, and epithelial ovarian cancers. CONCLUSION Disease progression within the peritoneal cavity has in the past been regarded as a terminal event. Accumulating evidence underlines the therapeutic potential and the acceptable morbidity and mortality rates of CRS and HIPEC in selected patients.

Abstract
Ovarian carcinoma is the most common cause of death due to gynecologic malignancy. Peritoneal involvement is present in approximately 70% of patients at the time of initial diagnosis. The disease spreads abdominally by direct extension, exfoliation of tumor cells into the peritoneal space, and dissemination of tumor cells along lymphatic pathways. Carcinomatosis characterizes an advanced stage of disease in which peritoneal disease has spread throughout the upper abdomen (stage IIIC) or in which diffuse peritoneal disease is accompanied by malignant pleural infiltration or visceral metastases (stage IV). Common sites of intraperitoneal seeding of ovarian carcinoma include the pelvis, omentum, paracolic gutters, liver capsule, and diaphragm. Soft-tissue thickening, nodularity, and enhancement are all signs of peritoneal involvement. Advanced-stage disease is treated either with initial cytoreductive surgery (debulking) followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, or with initial neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by debulking. Radiologic imaging plays an important role in the selection of patients who may benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy before debulking. However, accurate interpretation of the imaging findings is challenging and requires a detailed knowledge of the complex peritoneal anatomy, directionality of flow of peritoneal fluid, and specific disease sites that are likely to present particular difficulties with regard to surgical access and technique. Although there is as yet no clear consensus on the criteria for resectability of peritoneal lesions, extensive involvement of the small bowel or mesenteric root, involved lymph nodes superior to the celiac axis, pleural infiltration, pelvic sidewall invasion, bladder trigone involvement, and hepatic parenchymal metastases or implants near the right hepatic vein are considered indicative of potential nonresectability. Implants larger than 2 cm in diameter in the diaphragm, lesser sac, porta hepatis, intersegmental fissure, gallbladder fossa, or gastrosplenic or gastrohepatic ligament also may represent nonresectable disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal metastases in patients with high-grade adenocarcinoma have been typically associated with a poor outcome. Recent literature has suggested that cytoreduction surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) may improve survival. We examined this subset of patients in an effort to better delineate those factors which contribute to improved survival. METHODS A retrospective review was performed looking at patients who had undergone CRS/HIPEC. Patients were identified as high-grade histology on the basis of pathology reports indicating their lesion as high grade, moderately, or poorly differentiated and/or associated with signet ring or goblet cell carcinoid features. Peritoneal cancer index and completeness of cytoreduction (CC) were used to define disease burden. Survival analysis was performed by the method of Kaplan-Meier with the log-rank test used to determine significance. RESULTS Of the 250 patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC between 1999 and 2011, 36 (14%) were identified as having peritoneal metastases from a high-grade gastrointestinal primary. Actual overall survival from the time of diagnosis was 11.1% at 5 years. Median survival from time of surgery was 21.6 months. Survival advantage was conferred to those patients who underwent a CC0/CC1 resection, had a peritoneal cancer index score at time of surgery ≤20, appendiceal primary, or moderately differentiated histopathology. Receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and nodal status was not significantly predictive of improved survival. Patients with signet ring cell histology had a particularly poor prognosis. CONCLUSION For those patients with high-grade peritoneal metastases and historically a poor prognosis, prolonged survival may be achieved through CRS/HIPEC, optimally with a CC0/CC1 resection.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether abdominal and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with diffusion-weighted and dynamic gadolinium-enhanced imaging can be used to accurately calculate the peritoneal cancer index (PCI) before surgery compared to the PCI tabulated at surgery. METHODS Thirty-three patients underwent preoperative MRI followed by cytoreductive surgery for primary tumors of the appendix (n = 25), ovary (n = 5), colon (n = 2), and mesothelioma (n = 1). MRIs were retrospectively reviewed to determine the MRI PCI. These scores were then compared to PCI tabulated at surgery. Patients were categorized as having small-volume tumors (PCI 0–9), moderate-volume tumors (PCI 10–20), and large-volume tumors (PCI > 20). The respective anatomic site scores for both MRI and surgery were compared. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the MRI PCI and surgical PCI for the 33 patients (P = 0.12). MRI correctly predicted the PCI category in 29 (0.88) of 33 patients. Compared to surgical findings, MRI correctly predicted small-volume tumor in 6 of 7 patients, moderate-volume tumor in 3 of 4 patients, and large-volume tumor in 20 of 22 patients. MRI and surgical PCI scores were identical in 8 patients (24%). A difference of <5 was noted in 16 patients (49%) and of 5–10 in 9 patients (27%). Compared to surgical-site findings, MRI depicted 258 truly positive sites of peritoneal tumor, 35 falsely negative sites, 35 falsely positive sites, and 101 truly negative sites, with a corresponding sensitivity of 0.88, specificity of 0.74, and accuracy of 0.84. CONCLUSIONS Combined diffusion-weighted and gadolinium-enhanced peritoneal MRI accurately predicts the PCI before surgery in patients undergoing evaluation for cytoreductive surgery.
