Summary

The prognosis of peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer has recently improved with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Although outcomes are further improved when early stage peritoneal metastases are treated, adjuvant HIPEC has not yet been thoroughly addressed. This prospective pilot study assessed feasibility, safety and efficacy of HIPEC performed simultaneously with primary curative surgery in colorectal cancer patients with primary tumor-related risk-factors for the development of metachronous peritoneal metastases.

Conditions

  • Colorectal Neoplasm
  • Metastasis

Interventions

DRUG

adjuvant HIPEC

Closed-abdomen HIPEC with cisplatin (25 mg/m2/l of perfusate) and mitomycin-C (3•3 mg/m2/l of perfusate) at 42•5°C for 60 minutes. Perfusate volume: 4-6 l.

PROCEDURE

surgery

Colon resections for primary tumors were performed according to the oncologic principles of adequate lymph-adenectomy. Complete adhesiolysis, resection of falciform hepatic ligament, greater and lesser omentectomy were performed in all patients to ensure optimal perfusion during the HIPEC. Tumor deposits on visceral and parietal surfaces were surgically removed by formal peritonectomy procedures and/or organ resections, as needed.
