Original Source: Peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal cancer: cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
Peritoneal carcinomatosis caused by colorectal carcinoma is still considered as the end-stage of disease. A multi-modal therapeutic concept including maximal cytoreduction followed by intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy (HIPEC) has the potential to cure selected patients. In case of peritoneal carcinomatosis palliative systemic treatment is no longer the state of the art. This article addresses aspects of the disease, the rationale behind peritonectomy with HIPEC, and the surgical management of perito...
