Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) with HIPEC
Sugarbkaer procedure, Surgery method developed by Dr. Paul Sugarbaker (USA), the purpose of which is to remove all the peritoneal tumor deposits. The extent of surgery will depend on the number and distribution of the tumor deposits that the surgeons encounter. Due to the complexity of this surgery, it should only be performed by surgeons highly specialized and experienced in this procedure.
Once the tumor deposits are surgically removed, the surgical team administers HIPEC ( heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy). During this part of the procedure, the abdomen is filled with heated chemotherapy solution and circulated with the help of a specialised device for 60-90 minutes, which is used to treat the microscopic residuals of the tumor and achieve a better result.
Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC)
PIPAC is a new procedure that allows surgeons to treat lesions in the abdominal cavity using aerosolized chemotherapy. This procedure is performed through a minimally invasive laparoscopic approach.
PIPAC can often be repeated multiple times to maximize its effect against the tumor. It is used in patients who, at this time, are not candidates for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with HIPEC.
Systemic oncological treatment
Systemic oncological treatment consists of chemotherapy or immunotherapy administered by vein or in pill form. It can be used in preparation for surgery to make the tumor smaller and reduce surgery volume, or in the postoperative period to help maintain the results and reduce the chance of tumor recurrence.
