Cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) is emerging as a new standard treatment for peritoneal surface malignancies. Traditionally, peritoneal carcinomatosis was considered incurable and treated only with palliative chemotherapy. However, CRS-HIPEC aims to remove all visible tumor deposits surgically and then uses heated chemotherapy in the abdominal cavity to target any remaining microscopic disease. Studies show CRS-HIPEC provides significantly longer survival times compared to intravenous chemotherapy alone, with median overall survivals of 16-36 months. Experts indicate CRS-HIPEC should now be considered the standard of care for select patients with peritoneal metastases from conditions like ovarian

⢠Peritoneal Metastases
⢠Cytoreductive Surgery plus Hyperthermic
Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) for
Peritoneal Metastases
⢠Fundamentals
⢠Technical Requirements
⢠Chemotherapy Used
⢠The Right Patient
3. Peritoneal Metastases
⢠Peritoneal dissemination from gastrointestinal and
gynecological malignancies is common.
⢠Traditionally, it has been regarded as an end-stage
disease which was only amenable to palliation and
systemic chemotherapy.
⢠Poor literature on effective treatments because they
are often excluded from clinical trials because they
have ânon-measurable disease.â
4. Peritoneal Metastases
⢠NIHILISTIC ATTITUDE toward this condition.
⢠Second most common cause of death after liver metastases
⢠Prone to frequent hospitalizations because of recurrent
obstruction and intraabdominal infections
⢠Virtually incurable
⢠AVERAGE LIFE EXPECTANCY: 6 months
⢠With best systemic chemotherapy,
⢠MEDIAN OVERALL SURVIVAL: 20 months
⢠MEDIAN DISEASE FREE SURVIVAL: 10 months
5. Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) =
Peritonectomy + Organ Resection
⢠1930s, attempting to remove all visible deposits was
reported for ovarian cancers and eventually was
accepted as a treatment with survival benefit.
⢠Attempts have been done in various non-gynecologic
malignancies.
6. âIt is what the surgeon does not see
that kills the patient.â
⢠Paul Sugarbaker
⢠Peritoneal metastases should
not be equated with
generalized disease.
⢠Involvement of the peritoneal
surfaces may occur in the
absence of hematogeneous
metastases or it may
represent the dominant clinical
picture.
⢠Peritoneal metastases =
Locoregional disease

Technique
7. Strong Rationale for Locoregional
Treatment
⢠Treatment of macroscopic
disease
⢠Cytoreductive surgery
⢠Peritonectomy procedures
⢠Treatment of microscopic
disease
⢠Heated intraperitoneal
chemotherapy
⢠Treatment of systemic
disease
⢠IV chemotherapy
9. Principles and Rationale behind HIPEC
⢠âPlasma â Peritoneal Barrierâ
⢠Targets microscopic disease that cannot be completely
eradicated by surgery.
⢠Provides pharmacokinetic advantage of attaining high
local concentrations of chemotherapeutic agents, 12-15x
the maximum tolerated plasma concentration
⢠Median peak peritoneal concentration 1,116x that of the
normal plasma level of chemotherapy can be achieved.
⢠High temperature increases drug penetration and provides a
synergistic effect with intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
⢠Effect of IP chemotherapy on tumour cells also enhanced
because adhesions have not been formed.
⢠Mitomycin C, oxaliplatin, etc.
14. Predictors for Success
⢠Cancer deposits in 6 or
more regions of the
abdomen ď HIGH
TUMOR LOAD
⢠Completeness of
cytoreduction (R0, R1,
R2)
⢠Number of resections
and anastomoses
