Assessment of clinical benefit and quality of life in patients undergoing cytoreduction and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) for management of peritoneal metastases.
Peritoneal metastasis is a significant clinical challenge; life expectancy following diagnosis is usually very short. Surgical cytoreduction with HIPEC is being used with increasing frequency in selected patients; most outcome data have shown that prolonged median survivals can be observed in selected patients. This review summarizes the published data related to outcome and quality of life aft...
متن کاملRole of laparoscopy in patients with peritoneal metastases considered for cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC)
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that diagnostic laparoscopy (DL) was feasible for the evaluation of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) undergoing cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC). METHODS A retrospective review of PC patients treated from January 2010 to April 2013 was conducted. Data on tumor characteristics, treatment details and surviva...
متن کاملBowel strangulation caused by massive intraperitoneal adhesion due to effective chemotherapy for multiple peritoneal metastases originating from descending colon cancer
We describe a case of bowel strangulation caused by massive peritoneal adhesion as a result of effective chemotherapy. A 71-year-old man, who had obstructive descending colon cancer with massive peritoneal metastases and, therefore, received palliative surgery consisting of diverting colostomy and sampling of peritoneal nodules, developed bowel strangulation on day 4 of the 2nd course of chemot...
متن کامل[Peritoneal gistosis: role of cytoreductive surgery and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy].
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most frequent mesenchymal neoplasms of the digestive tract. They are usually seen in patients over the age of 50, with equal sex distribution, with an annual incidence of approximately 5000 in the U.S. They originate from cells of Cajal and the most frequent location is the stomach (60%), followed by the jejunum and ileum (30%). Although they frequ...
متن کاملCytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy in peritoneal carcinomatosis.
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis is an advanced form of cancer with poor prognosis that in the past was treated mainly palliatively. Today, the definitive approach to peritoneal surface malignancy involves peritonectomy, visceral resection and perioperative intra-abdominal hyperthermic chemotherapy. The anticipated results range from at least palliative to as far as intent to cure. Proper p...
