Hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy with cisplatin for ovarian cancer with pleural metastasis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intrathoracic metastasis of ovarian cancer has poor prognosis regardless of treatment modality. Recent development of surgical techniques and the new concept of direct infusion of chemotherapeutic agents with hyperthermia could help with the treatment of disseminated diseases in ovarian cancer. Using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and intracavitary chemotherapy with hyperthermia, we tried hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy for a case of stage IV high-grade serous ovarian cancer with pleural metastasis. There was no high-grade complication related to the procedure. The patient is alive without disease at 32 months after initial treatment.

Hyperthermic Intrathoracic Chemotherapy for Metastatic Ovarian Cancer
Introduction: Ovarian serous carcinoma is an aggressive malignancy, often with metastases at presentation. Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been studied as a treatment option for intraperitoneal spread of ovarian cancer. Hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy, the thoracic counterpart to hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, is emerging as ...

Patients with extensive peritoneal spread from advanced ovarian cancer often undergo several upper abdominal surgical procedures including subphrenic peritonectomy to obtain optimal cytoreduction. The most common complications are pleural effusions, pancreatic leakage and endoabdominal collections. This case report describes an unusual complication, a diaphragmatic hernia with an intrathoracic ...

STUDY OBJECTIVES No established curative treatment is available for pleural thymoma metastases and malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Recently, peritoneal malignancies have been treated by cytoreductive surgery and intraoperative hyperthermic intracavitary perfusion chemotherapy (HIPEC). We investigated the feasibility and safety of this multimodality treatment in the thoracic cavity. DESI...

Cytoreductive surgery combined with intraoperative hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) is studied in a phase I study in the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma and pleural thymoma. We studied the pharmacokinetics of doxorubicin and cisplatin used during the HITHOC procedure. Furthermore, the penetration characteristics of doxorubicin were examined. Between 1998 and 2001, 24...

BACKGROUND Although hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been widely used to treat malignant ascites or as a preventive strategy for microscopic carcinomatosis following surgical resection of abdominal tumors, application of hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) in the treatment of malignant pleural effusion is limited. The objective of the current study was to condu...
