Laparoscopic hyperthermic intraperitoneal peroperative chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the management of refractory malignant ascites: A multi‐institutional retrospective analysis in 52 patients

Abstract: Malignant ascites is a debilitating condition affecting cancer patients in their terminal stage of disease. Recently, laparoscopic hyperthermic intraperitoneal peroperative chemotherapy (HIPEC) was introduced as a new approach. From September 2001 to August 2008, 52 patients were treated with this new modality. No treatment-related mortality was observed. Median survival was 98 days. One patient developed a clinical recurrence. Laparoscopic HIPEC is a safe and effective method for palliating malignant ascites.

“…It has shown to provide treatment benefits greater than conventional methods including diuretics, repeated paracentesis and systemic chemotherapy with a complete and definitive resolution of the ascites was observed in up to 94 % of patients [53,54,55]. Some centres have also performed curative intent laparoscopic CRS/HIPEC in selected patients with limited PC.…”

“…HIPEC can have morbidity and therefore should not be used for patients with bulky residual disease [46] . Palliative use for ascites may always be considered [45,47] . Even if cytoreduction is incomplete, HIPEC is less useful for patients with high burden of peritoneal metastatic disease as measured by PCI.…”
