Staged laparoscopic adjuvant intraperitoneal chemohyperthermia after complete resection for locally advanced colorectal or gastric cancer: a preliminary experience

Abstract: Staged laparoscopic adjuvant IPCH after open or laparoscopic resection in selected patients with colorectal or gastric cancer is feasible and reasonably safe. However, additional data are required to determine the effect on long-term survival.

“…However, in the last years, once the minimally invasive approach has been widely performed in an increasing number of centers, laparoscopic HIPEC gained popularity (5,20). Initially proposed with palliative intent (30), latter for the pre-therapeutic PCI evaluation (31) and to date as part of the therapeutic protocol in unresectable lesions and refractory ascites, later on the method has been also proposed in association with laparoscopic radical resections with curative intent (32).…”
