Purpose: This study aimed to assess the evaluation of clinical outcomes and consequences of complications after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal cancer.Methods: A total 26 patients underwent CRS and HIPEC for PC from colorectal cancer between March 2009 and April 2018. All the patients underwent CRS with the purpose of complete or near-complete cytoreduction. Intraoperative HIPEC was performed simultaneously after the CRS. Mitomycin C was used as chemotherapeutic agent for HIPEC.Results: Median disease-free survival was 27.8 months (range, 13.4–42.2 months). Median overall survival was 56.0 months (range, 28.6–83.5 months). The mean peritoneal cancer index (PCI) was 8.73 ± 5.54. The distributions thereof were as follows: PCI <10, 69.23%; PCI 10–19, 23.08%; and PCI ≥20, 7.69%. The completeness of cytoreduction was 96.2% of patients showed CC-0, with 3.8% achieved CC-1. The mean operation time was 8.5 hours, and the mean postoperative hospital stay was 21.6 days. The overall rate of early postoperative complications was 88.5%; the rate of late complications was 34.6%. In the early period, most complications were grades I–II complications (65.4%), compared to grades III–V (23.1%). All late complications, occurring in 7.7% of patients, were grades III–V. There was no treatment-related mortality.Conclusion: Although the complication rate was approximately 88%, but the rate of severe complication rate was low. In selective patients with peritoneal recurrence, more aggressive strategies for management, such as CRS with HIPEC, were able to be considered under the acceptable general condition and life-expectancy.

Background: The number of cases of cervical cancer with recurrence and peritoneal carcinomatosis is limited. In our study, we aimed to present the results of cytoreductive surgery hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy treatment and its 3-year early period results in patients with peritoneal metastases due to cervical cancer. Methods: Data of 306 patients who had undergone cytoreductive surgery hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy between May 2016 and 2021 because of intra-abdominal metastases were collected prospectively and evaluated retrospectively. Ten cases who had undergone cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy due to cervical peritoneal carcinomatosis were included in this study. Results: Average time of operation was 5 (range = 3-6) hours, mean average of peritoneal carcinomatosis index score was 12.3 (range = 7-36), and mean average of completeness of cytoreduction score was 1 in 2 patients and 0 in 8 patients. No mortality was recorded in 30 days postoperatively. Four patients relapsed and died because of pneumonia, coronavirus disease, pulmonary embolism, and terminal illness. These patients died at 2, 5, 6, and 12 months, respectively. Six patients are still alive and early period tumor relapse has not been reported during their follow-ups. Conclusions: This study has a limited number of patients and the results are early period results. The follow-up of patients were not long term. Therefore, it is hard to say that cytoreductive surgery hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy could be of any benefit looking at the results. Long-term results should be waited. Also, multicentered randomized cohort study with large sample size is required to evaluate this invasive procedure.

5524 Background: Advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer results in extensive dissemination of tumor within the peritoneal cavity. The current evidence suggests that cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) may be a feasible option with potential benefits compared to the current standard of care in the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer. Methods: A systematic review of relevant studies before August 2008 was undertaken to document and report its efficacy. Each study was appraised using a predetermined protocol. The quality of studies was assessed. The patient characteristics, protocol of treatment, perioperative morbidity and mortality, and treatment outcomes were synthesized through a narrative review with full tabulation of results of all included studies. Results: In total, 15 non-randomized, observational studies were reviewed, comprising of 512 patients. All patients received HIPEC as part of the combined treatment with cytoreductive surgery. Cisplatin was the most common chemoperfusate. The mortality associated with the treatment ranged from 0 to 10%. The rates of severe morbidity ranged from 0 to 40%. The median time of follow up ranged from 14 to 64 months, the median disease-free survival ranged from 10 to 57 months and the overall median survival ranged from 22 to 64 months. In patients who had an optimal cytoreduction, the median survival ranged from 29 to 66 months, with a 3- and 5-year survival rate that ranged from 35 to 63% and 12 to 66%, respectively. Conclusions: The future for cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC in ovarian cancer is promising. More studies are called for to validate the efficacy of this treatment. For it to become generally accepted, the oncology community must commit to a randomized trial. Before this, the current treatment of cytoreductive surgery combined with adjuvant intraperitoneal and intravenous chemotherapy should remain the mainstay of treatment. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

3642 Background: Patients with stage IV colorectal cancer and peritoneal carcinomatosis are increasingly treated with curative intent and perioperative systemic chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy.The aim of the study was to analyze the potential impact of bevacizumab on early morbidity and survival after cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal origin. Methods: From 2004 to 2010, in three referral centers, 182 patients with colorectal carcinomatosis were treated with complete cytoreduction followed by HIPEC after either preoperative systemic chemotherapy alone or in combination with bevacizumab. Because there was no control on treatment allocation, propensity score methods were used to control this bias. Results: The median time from discontinuation of bevacizumab to HIPEC was 7 weeks (range, 6-10). Major morbidity was greater in the Beva group (34 vs. 19%, p=0.020). Nine patients died postoperatively: 5 (6.2%) in the Beva group (n=80) and 4 (3.9%) in the group treated with chemotherapy alone (n=102) (p=NS). The rate of digestive fistulas was greater in the Beva group, although not significant (18 vs. 10%, p=NS). After matching, the effect of Bevacizumab on major morbidity (including death) was found to be significant (OR = 2.28, 95% CI; 1.05 - 4.95) (p=0.04). No difference in median of overall and disease free survival was found between the two groups (12 and 36 month in Beva group vs. 14.3 and 49 month in the control group, p=NS). Conclusions: Administration of bevacizumab before surgery with complete cytoreduction followed by HIPEC for colorectal carcinomatosis is associated with 2-fold increased morbidity. The oncologic benefit of bevacizumab before HIPEC remains to be evaluated with prospective randomized study.

28 Background: Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in addition to Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) has survival benefit observed in management of Peritoneal Carcinomatosis (PC) from Colo-rectal cancer (CRC)origin. We report the outcomes and prognostic factors of patients with CRC, who presented with PC and underwent CRS and HIPEC at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Methods: Patients presented with PC from CRC origin and underwent CRS and HIPEC; from February 2009 to September 2015 were recruited. Results: 52 patients identified. A total of 55 CRS procedures were performed, where 3 patients underwent repeated CRS and HIPEC for tumor recurrence. All except 3 used mitomycin-C for HIPEC, the remaining received either melphalan (2 patients) or cisplatin plus mitomycin-C regimen (1 patient). Melphalan used for patients who underwent repeated HIPEC as 2nd line chemotherapeutic agent. Intraoperative Radiation therapy performed in 5 patients with tumor invading the surrounding structures, where performing a safe or complete resection was either technically difficult or carried high risk. Complication assessment by Clavien-Dindo score, 62 % grade (I-II), while 31% had grade (3–4). Two patients (3.6%) died postoperatively; both from sepsis. Respiratory complications were the most commonly encountered morbidities. The 5-year overall survival(OS) was 50% with disease free survival (DFS) 29.5%. Univariate analysis showed poor OS and DFS encountered in; Signet-ring tumors (p < 0.0001) for both, peritoneal cancer index (PCI) ≥ 6 (p < 0.0009) for both, completeness of cytoreduction(CC) score >1 (p < 0.0001) for both, and high 3-month postoperative carcinoembryonic antigen value (p <0.0001) for both. In multivariate analysis; DFS was significant for (PCI) ≥ 6 (p < 0.0131) and (CC) score >1 (p < 0.0031) while PCI > 6 was the only significant factor (p < 0.0030) for OS. Conclusions: Addition of HIPEC to CRS was safe, and improved survival in patient with peritoneal Carcinomatosis of colo-rectal origin. PCI and CC score are prognostic factors of survival, signet-ring subtype may not benefit of this procedure.

Background: Urinary system resections and reconstructions are needed in peritoneal carcinomatosis due to abdominal malignancies. The effect of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy on these urological procedures after reconstruction remains uncertain. The aim of the study is to evaluate major urological interventions during cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in complex abdominal malignancies with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Methods: Forty-four cases underwent surgical intervention related to the urinary system among 208 cases who underwent cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy because of peritoneal carcinomatosis. Urinary system procedures performed in these patients (radical-partial cystectomy, partial ureter resection ureteroneocystostomy, ureteroureterostomy, nephrectomy) were evaluated in terms of postoperative morbidity–mortality and survival. Results: Urinary system resections were performed during cytoreductive surgery in a total of 44 cases. The mean age was 54 years (20–73). Patients were diagnosed with peritoneal carcinomatosis due to colorectal cancer in 21 (47.8%), ovarian cancer in nine (20.4%), sarcomatosis in five (11.4%), cervical cancer in four (9%) and other cancers (mesothelioma, uterus, breast, gastric) in five (11.4%) cases. Total nephrectomy was performed in three cases and partial nephrectomy in one case. Cystectomy was performed in 21 cases; 16 of these were partial and five were total cystectomies. Ureteroureterocystostomy with double J was performed in four cases and ureteroneocystostomy in 12 cases. While Clavian–Dindo grade 3–4 complications were seen in nine cases (20.4%), three cases (6.8%) became exitus during the first 30-day follow-up. Conclusions: Although urinary system involvements have been regarded as inoperable in the past, we think that with adequate experience radical urinary interventions performed in suitable patients can be carried out with acceptable morbidity and mortality as seen in our series.

Introduction.Cytoreductive surgery (CS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a new approach for peritoneal carcinomatosis. However, high rates of complications are associated with CS and HIPEC due to treatment complexity; that is why some patients need stabilization and surveillance for complications in the intensive care unit.Objective.This study analyzed that ICU stay is necessary after HIPEC.Methods.39 patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis were treated according to strict selection criteria with CS and HIPEC, with closed technique, and the chemotherapy administered were cisplatin 25 mg/m2/L and mitomycin C 3.3 mg/m2/L for 90-minutes at 40.5°C.Results.26 (67%) of the 39 patients were transferred to the ICU. Major postoperative complications were seen in 14/26 patients (53%). The mean time on surgical procedures was 7.06 hours (range 5−9 hours). The mean blood loss was 939 ml (range 100–3700 ml). The mean time stay in the ICU was 2.7 days.Conclusion.CS with HIPEC for the treatment of PC results in low mortality and high morbidity. Therefore, ICU stay directly following HIPEC should not be standardized, but should preferably be based on the extent or resections performed and individual patient characteristics and risk factors. Late complications were comparable to those reported after large abdominal surgery without HIPEC.

Despite improvement in treatments, the peritoneum remains the primary site of relapse in most ovarian cancer cases. Patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneal carcinomatosis from epithelial ovarian cancer were reviewed. Kaplan–Meier curves and multivariate Cox analyses were used to identify survival rates and prognostic factors. This study included 158 patients. The procedure was mostly performed for recurrent disease (46.8%) and high-grade serous carcinoma (58.2%). The median peritoneal cancer index was 14, and complete cytoreduction was obtained in 87.9% of cases. Grade IV morbidity occurred in 15.2% of patients, mostly requiring surgical reoperation, and one patient (0.6%) died within 90 days. The median follow-up was 63.5 months. The Kaplan–Meier 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 42.1% and 24.3%, respectively. Multiple regression logistic analyses demonstrated that the completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score (p ≤ 0.0001), pancreatic resection (p ≤ 0.0001) and number of resections (p = 0.001) were significant factors influencing OS; whereas the CC score (p ≤ 0.0001) and diaphragmatic procedures (p = 0.01) were significant for DFS. The addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy to standard multimodality therapy may improve outcomes in both primary and recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer without impairing early postoperative results, but the exact timing has not yet been established. Prospective randomized studies will clarify the role and indications of this approach.
