However, cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermia intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has risen to a more accepted roll in the treatment of peritoneal metastatic disease for various cancers; colorectal cancer is no exception. This review aims to discuss the recent updates and findings for treatment of peritoneal disease secondary to colorectal cancer, especially with respect to individualized patient factors that affect outcomes.
