Increased Survival of Patients with Synchronous Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases Receiving Preoperative Chemotherapy Before Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy
2016
Background
Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC) can result in long-term survival for selected patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases (PM). Most patients are additionally treated with systemic chemotherapy, but timing (adjuvant vs. preoperative) varies between treatment centers. This study aimed to compare short- and long-term outcomes for patients with synchronous colorectal PM undergoing CRS + HIPEC who received preoperative or adjuvant chemotherapy.
