Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and intraperitoneal chemotherapy are effective in the treatment of ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis (OPC). Colon resection is often required to achieve maximal cytoreduction during CRS. The success of complete mesocolic excision (CME) and total mesorectal excision (TME) in the surgical treatment of primary colorectal tumors is well-known. Our study aimed to investigate the factors affecting mesocolic lymph node metastasis (MLNM) and the contribution of CME/TME techniques to maximal cytoreduction in patients diagnosed with ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis (OPC) with colon metastasis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2004-2020, 30 patients who underwent colorectal resection with CME/TME techniques due to OPC-related colon metastasis were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The median age of patients was 61 (33-86). Six (20%) patients underwent total colectomy, 7 (23%) subtotal colectomy, 6 (20%) right hemicolectomy, 4 (13%) left hemicolectomy, and 7 (23%) rectosigmoid resection. Histopathological diagnosis was high-grade serous carcinoma in 29 (97%) patients, and malignant mixed Mullerian tumor in 1 (3%) patient. MLNM was detected in 17 (56%) of 30 patients. There was a significant relationship between MLNM and pelvic and para-aortic lymph node metastasis (PALNM) (p = 0.009) and lymphovascular invasion in primary ovarian tumors (p = 0.017). There was no significant relationship between MLNM and depth of colonic invasion (p = 0.463), histological grade (p = 0.711), and primary/secondary surgery (p = 0.638). MLNM was seen in 8 (47%) of 17 patients with only serosal invasion. CONCLUSION A high rate of MLNM can be seen in OPC-induced colon metastasis regardless of the degree of colon wall invasion. In patients with PALNM, the frequency of MLNM increases. We believe that if colon resection is to be performed in OPC, a colectomy should be performed by CME/TME principles to achieve maximal cytoreduction.

Abstract
Introduction Ovarian tumors remain one of the leading malignancies of the female genital tract, with a high mortality rate due to their insidious onset and lack of detection at an earlier stage. These tumors metastasize by direct extension into the neighboring pelvic organs; hence, the detection of peritoneal metastasis is valuable for staging and prognostic purposes. Peritoneal wash cytological analysis is an effective predictor of the involvement of the ovarian surface and peritoneal dissemination even in subclinical involvement of the peritoneum. The study aims to determine the significance of peritoneal wash cytology as a prognostic parameter and correlate it with various clinicohistological features. Methods A retrospective study was conducted at the Department of Histopathology, Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan, between July 2017 and June 2022. During this period, all the cases of ovarian tumors (borderline and malignant) that underwent total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and omental and lymph node sampling were included in the study. After opening the abdominal cavity, the free fluid present was aspirated immediately, the peritoneum was lavaged with 50-100 mL of warm saline, and samples were collected and sent for cytological analysis. Four cytospin smear slides and cell block preparation were prepared. The findings of peritoneal cytology were correlated with various clinicohistological features. Results A total of 118 cases of ovarian tumors were included in the study. Serous carcinoma was the most common sub-type (50.8%), followed by endometrioid carcinoma (14.4%), and the mean age at diagnosis was found to be 49.9±14.9 years. The mean tumor size was 11.2 cm. The majority of the cases of ovarian carcinoma were of high grade (78.8%), with capsular invasion present in 61% of cases. Positive peritoneal cytology was noted in 58.5% of cases, with omental involvement in 52.5% of cases. Serous carcinoma showed the highest frequency of positive cytology (69.6%) and omental metastasis (74.2%). Apart from tumor type, positive peritoneal cytology showed a significantly positive correlation with age, tumor grade, and capsular invasion. Conclusion Based on our study findings, we conclude that peritoneal wash cytology is a sensitive indicator of the peritoneal spread of ovarian carcinoma, with a significant prognostic value. Serous carcinomas, especially high-grade with capsular invasion, were found to be predictors of peritoneal involvement of ovarian tumors. Although we found smaller tumors to be associated with peritoneal disease more compared to larger ones, this most likely is attributed to tumor histology, as larger tumors were most commonly mucinous compared to serous carcinomas.

Therapeutic Strategies and Oncological Outcome of Peritoneal Metastases from Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis. Curr Oncol 2023; 30:2928-2941. [PMID: 36975437 PMCID: PMC10047709 DOI: 10.3390/curroncol30030224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The peritoneum is an unusual site of metastases from lung cancer, and optimal management at the moment remains unclear and mostly based on palliative strategies. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate demographic characteristics, management and overall survival of patients with peritoneal metastases from lung cancer (PCLC). A PRISMA-compliant systematic review and pooled analysis was performed searching all English studies published until December 2022. PROSPERO, CRD42022349362. Inclusion criteria were original articles including patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from lung cancer, specifying at least one outcome of interest. Exclusion criteria were being unable to retrieve patient data from articles, and the same patient series included in different studies. Among 1746 studies imported for screening, twenty-one were included (2783 patients). Mean overall survival was between 0.5 and 5 months after peritoneal carcinomatosis diagnosis and 9 and 21 months from lung cancer diagnosis. In total, 27% of patients underwent first-line or palliative chemotherapy and 7% of them surgery. Management differs significantly among published studies. The literature on PCLC is scarce. Its incidence is low but appears to be substantially rising and is likely to be an underestimation. Prognosis is very poor and therapeutic strategies have been limited and used in a minority of patients. Subcategories of PCLC patients may have an improved prognosis and may benefit from an aggressive oncological approach, including cytoreductive surgery. Further investigation would be needed in this regard.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This retrospective study estimates the frequency of parenchymal liver metastasis (PLM) and the overall survival (OS) rate of patients with FIGO Stage IIIC-IV Advanced Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC) with bowel involvement. STUDY DESIGN Between November 2008 and July 2020, all consecutive patients with FIGO Stage IIIC-IV EOC who underwent Visceral Peritoneal Debulking and bowel resection(s) at the Gynaecological Oncology Unit of "Centro di Riferimento Oncologico (CRO)", Aviano, Italy, without evidence of PLM at pre-operative imaging assessment, were included in the study. The presence and the time of the onset of PLM during the follow-up period were detected by diagnostic imaging (CT-scan, Ultrasound and PET). The OS of patients with and without PLM was compared. Considering the bowel's layers, the association between depth of bowel involvement, number of PLM, and the relative OS rate was evaluated. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 47.3 (12-138) months. PLM occurred in 24/72 (33.0%) cases; the average onset time of PLM was 13 months. PLM was associated with increased significant mortality risk and an average OS of 33.2 versus 56.8 months (p < 0.001). The risk of developing PLM correlated directly with the depth of bowel involvement. However, there was no statistical difference between the layers in terms of OS at the end of the observational period. CONCLUSIONS PLM occurred more frequently among patients with EOC and bowel involvement. The PLM arose within 15 months of follow-up and the frequency increased according to the depth of involvement. Particularly, the difference is remarkably higher starting from muscular layer where the total number of PLM arose significantly (p = 0.02). Although there was no significant difference among the infiltrated bowel layers in terms of OS, patients with bowel involvement up to muscular had a dramatic reduction in the OS rate during the first 30 months of follow-up.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify prognostic factors of survival and recurrence in advanced ovarian cancer patients undergoing radical surgery and HIPEC. METHODS In a single Department of Surgical Oncology, Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Program, and over a 16-year period, from a total of 274 epithelial ovarian cancer patients, retrospectively, we identified 152 patients undergoing complete (CC-0) or near-complete (CC-1) cytoreduction, including at least one colonic resection, and HIPEC. RESULTS Mean age of patients was 58.8 years and CC-0 was possible in 72.4%. Rates of in-hospital mortality and major morbidity were 2.6% and 15.7%. Only 122 (80.3%) patients completed Adjuvant Systemic Chemotherapy (ASCH). Rates of metastatic Total Lymph Nodes (TLN), Para-Aortic and Pelvic Lymph Nodes (PAPLN) and Large Bowel Lymph Nodes (LBLN) were 58.7%, 58.5%, and 51.3%, respectively. Median, 5- and 10-year survival rates were 39 months, 43%, and 36.2%, respectively. The recurrence rate was 35.5%. On univariate analysis, CC-1, high Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI), in-hospital morbidity, and no adjuvant chemotherapy were adverse factors for survival and recurrence. On multivariate analysis, negative survival indicators were the advanced age of patients, extensive peritoneal dissemination, low total number of TLN and no systemic PAPLN. Metastatic LBLN and segmental resection of the small bowel (SIR) were associated with a high risk for recurrence. CONCLUSION CC-O is feasible in most advanced ovarian cancer patients and HIPEC may confer a survival benefit. Radical bowel resection, with its entire mesocolon, may be necessary, as its lymph nodes often harbor metastases influencing disease recurrence and survival. The role of metastatic bowel lymph nodes has to be taken into account when assessing the impact of systemic lymphadenectomy in this group of patients.

Synchronous liver and peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer: Is cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy combined with liver resection a feasible option? Front Surg 2022; 9:1006591. [PMID: 36589624 PMCID: PMC9797824 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.1006591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Traditionally, synchronous liver resection (LR), cytoreductive surgery (CRS), and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for colorectal liver and peritoneal metastases have been contraindicated. Nowadays, clinical practice has promoted this aggressive treatment in selected cases. This study aimed to review surgical and survival results of an extensive surgical approach including CRS with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and LR. Methods PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were matched to find the available literature on this topic. The search period was limited to 10 years (January 2010-January 2021). A threshold of case series of 10 patients or more was applied. Results In the search period, out of 114 studies found about liver and peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer, we found 18 papers matching the inclusion criteria. Higher morbidity and mortality were reported for patients who underwent such an extensive surgical approach when compared with patients who underwent only cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. Also, survival rates seem worse in the former than in the latter. Conclusion The role of combined surgical strategy in patients with synchronous liver and peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer remains controversial. Survival rates and morbidity and mortality seem not in favor of this option. A more accurate selection of patients and more restrictive surgical indications could perhaps help improve results in this subgroup of patients with limited curative options.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the eighth most common neoplasm in women with a high mortality rate mainly due to a marked propensity for peritoneal spread directly at diagnosis, as well as tumor recurrence after radical surgical treatment. Treatments for peritoneal metastases have to be designed from a patient's perspective and focus on meaningful measures of benefit. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), a strategy combining maximal cytoreductive surgery with regional chemotherapy, has been proposed to treat advanced ovarian cancer. Preliminary results to date have shown promising results, with improved survival outcomes and tumor regression. As knowledge about the disease process increases, practice guidelines will continue to evolve. In this review, we have reported a broad overview of advanced ovarian cancer management, and an update of the current evidence. The future perspectives of the Italian Society of Surgical Oncology (SICO) are discussed conclusively.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the utility of CTE in the evaluation of bowel invasion in patients with primary ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal cancer. METHODS This observational study included 73 patients who received CTE before operation between September 2019 and December 2021. Two radiologists reviewed CTE images, focusing on the sites and depth of bowel involvement. Based on the findings during surgical exploration, we evaluated the diagnostic power, like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), positive likelihood ratio (+ LR), and negative likelihood ratio (- LR) of CTE. Additionally, the characteristic images of bowel involvement on CTE corresponding to surgical findings were shown in the study. RESULTS The rate of macroscopic bowel invasion in this cohort was 49.31% (36/73), of which eight patients had small bowel involvement, 17 patients had colon involvement and 27 patients had sigmoid-rectum involvement. CTE detected bowel invasion in the small intestine with a sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy of 87.50%, 92.31%, 58.33%, 98.36%, 91.78%; for colon, the statistics were 58.82%, 96.43%, 83.33%, 88.52%, 87.67% and for sigmoid-rectum 62.96%, 82.61%, 68.00%, 79.17%, 75.34%, respectively. CONCLUSION CTE appeared a preferable diagnostic power on the small bowel and colon invasion in patients with primary ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal cancer.

Abstract
We classified clinical phenotypes based on tumor separability from the rectosigmoid colon and then evaluated the effect of these clinical phenotypes on surgical outcomes and prognosis of advanced ovarian cancer. We collected data of patients with stage IIIB-IVB disease who either underwent visceral segmental serosectomy (VSS) or low anterior resection (LAR) during maximal debulking surgery. All patients were divided into the following, according to the resection types of tumors involving the rectosigmoid colon: the focal (tumor-involved length <18 cm) and separable (FS) group that received VSS, the focal and inseparable (FI) that received LAR, or the diffuse (tumor-involved length ≥18 cm) group (D) that also received LAR. A total of 83 patients were included in FS (n=44, 53%), FI (n=18, 21.7%), and D (n=24, 25.3%) groups. FS and D groups with more extensive tumors were related to wider extent of surgery and more tumor infiltration except for bowels, whereas FI and D groups with more invasive tumors were associated with wider extent of surgery, more tumor infiltration to bowels, longer operation time, more blood loss, more transfusion, longer hospitalization, and higher surgical complexity scores. Moreover, FS and FI groups showed better progression-free survival than D group, whereas FS group demonstrated better overall survival than FI and D groups. Clinical phenotypes based on tumor separability from the rectosigmoid colon may depend on tumor invasiveness and extensiveness in advanced ovarian cancer. Moreover, these clinical phenotypes may affect surgical outcomes and survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenteric lymph node (MLN) involvement is often observed in ovarian cancer (OC) with rectosigmoid invasion. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of MLN involvement in the pattern of liver metastasis in patients with OC. METHODS We included 85 stage II-IV OC patients who underwent primary or interval debulking surgery. Twenty-seven patients underwent rectosigmoid resection, whose status of MLN involvement was judged from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of resected specimens. The prognostic significance of clinicopathological characteristics, including MLN involvement, was evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS MLN involvement was detected in 14/85 patients with stage II-IV OC. Residual tumor status, cytology of ascites, and MLN involvement were independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS; p = 0.033, p = 0.014, and p = 0.008, respectively). When patients were classified into three groups (no MLN, one MLN, two or more MLNs), the number of MLNs involved corresponded to three distinct groups in PFS (p = 0.001). The 3-year cumulative incidence of liver metastasis of patients with MLN involvement was significantly higher than that of patients without MLN involvement (61.1% vs. 8.9%, p < 0.001). MLN involvement was significantly associated with liver metastasis of hematogenous origin (p < 0.001) compared with peritoneal disseminated origin. CONCLUSION MLN involvement is an important prognostic factor in OC, predicting poor prognosis and liver metastasis of hematogenous origin.

[PMID: 32347021 PMCID: PMC7286754 DOI: 10.3802/jgo.2020.31.e57] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2020] [Revised: 03/05/2020] [Accepted: 03/08/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer has been traditionally treated with cytoreductive surgery and chemotherapy. Optimal surgery is the key to improving the prognosis, and, thus, preoperative imaging should be carefully assessed to determine if the involvement of gastrointestinal, vascular, or thoracic surgeons is necessary to achieve this. Consequently, gynecologists should be able to recognize which imaging features suggest optimal or suboptimal resection. The aim of this review was to present the preoperative imaging features indicating suboptimal resection of epithelial ovarian cancer.

Mert I, Kumar A, Torres D, Huang Y, McGree ME, Weaver AL, Cliby WA. Should mucosal bowel invasion in ovarian cancer be assigned to FIGO stage IV disease? Gynecol Oncol 2019; 153:238-241. [PMID: 30833135 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2019.02.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2019] [Revised: 02/18/2019] [Accepted: 02/19/2019] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The FIGO staging consensus agreement from 2012 indicates that bowel mucosal invasion for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) should be assigned to stage IV disease. Finding no evidence justifying this recommendation, we examined the impact of recto-sigmoid colonic invasion on survival based on depth of invasion. METHODS Patients having recto-sigmoid resection to achieve complete gross resection for stage IIIC/IV EOC between 2003 and 2011 were included. For this study, mucosal invasion alone was not considered as stage IV. Degree of bowel invasion was defined as: serosal/subserosal vs. muscularis/submucosa/mucosa. Patients with only mesenteric invasion were excluded. Intraperitoneal disease (IP) dissemination patterns were defined as pelvic, lower abdomen, upper abdomen, and miliary disease. Comparisons between groups were evaluated using the log-rank test for progression-free and overall survival (PFS, OS) and the chi-square test for IP dissemination pattern. RESULTS Eighty-five patients were included with a mean age of 64.5 years. Most cases were serous (87.1%) and stage IIIC (83.5%). There were 53 (62.4%) patients with serosal/subserosal and 32 (37.6%) with muscularis/submucosa/mucosa invasion. Although not statistically significant, PFS and OS both favored cases with deeper invasion (muscularis/submucosa/mucosa vs. serosal/subserosal invasion: median PFS, 33.5 vs. 18.2 months, p = 0.34; median OS, 82.3 vs. 51.5 months, p = 0.46). When comparing patterns of disease dissemination, we observed that patients with serosal/subserosal invasion (vs. those with deeper invasion) tended to have more upper abdominal or miliary disease (67.9% vs. 48.4%, p = 0.08). CONCLUSIONS Depth of recto-sigmoid colon wall invasion does not have prognostic significance. Our observations do not support assignment to a higher FIGO stage (IV) based solely on this factor.

Correlation Between Pelvic Peritoneal Disease and Nodal Metastasis in Advanced Ovarian Cancer: Can Intraoperative Findings Define the Need for Systematic Nodal Dissection? Indian J Surg Oncol 2019; 10:84-90. [PMID: 30886499 PMCID: PMC6397118 DOI: 10.1007/s13193-019-00881-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2018] [Accepted: 01/16/2019] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
To explore the relationship of peritoneal, and rectal involvement with lymph nodal metastases to identify clinical parameters to guide systematic nodal dissection in advanced ovarian cancer (stage 3c). It is a retrospective study of stage III C epithelial ovarian cancers undergoing cytoreductive surgery with systematic nodal dissection, from January 2011 to December 2016. LS3 score is a cumulative score given for the presence of size 3 lesion (peritoneal disease measuring more than 5 cm) in regions 5, 6, and 7. The depth of rectal involvement was assigned progressive numerical values from 1 (for serosa) to maximum 4 (for mucosa) to generate rectal involvement score. There were 91 patients. 48.35% patients had LS3 lesions in regions 5, 6, 7. Of these, 36% (27/44) had positive nodes. Of the 41 node-positive cases, 43.9% had single and 34.14% had two station involvements. Rectum was involved in 47 patients (51.64%), serosal involvement being the most common type (50.57%). Twenty patients had positive mesorectal nodes (42.55%). The presence of rectal involvement was influenced by the Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index (PCI) score, the presence of LS3 in lower quadrants (p = 0.008), and LSE score of lower quadrants (p = 0.003). With the increasing depth of rectal infiltration, mesorectal positivity increased significantly (p = 0.000). In multivariate analysis, lower quadrant (regions 5, 6, 7) PCI, LS3 in lower quadrants, LS3 score, rectal involvement score, and the total number of lines of chemotherapy significantly affected different nodal disease parameters. In advanced ovarian cancer, LS3 disease in regions 5, 6, and 7 and rectal involvement directly impact the nodal metastasis and hence mandates a systematic nodal dissection. Mesorectal nodal involvement significantly increases with the increasing depth of rectal involvement necessitating systematic mesorectal nodal clearance for all rectal resections.

1st Evidence-based Italian consensus conference on cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneal carcinosis from ovarian cancer. TUMORI JOURNAL 2017; 103:525-536. [PMID: 28430350 DOI: 10.5301/tj.5000623] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 03/09/2017] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) remains relatively rare, although it is among the top 4 causes of cancer death for women younger than 50. The aggressive nature of the disease and its often late diagnosis with peritoneal involvement have an impact on prognosis. The current scientific literature presents ambiguous or uncertain indications for management of peritoneal carcinosis (PC) from OC, both owing to the lack of sufficient scientific data and their heterogeneity or lack of consistency. Therefore, the Italian Society of Surgical Oncology (SICO), the Italian Society of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the Italian Association of Hospital Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, and the Italian Association of Medical Oncology conducted a multidisciplinary consensus conference (CC) on management of advanced OC presenting with PC during the SICO annual meeting in Naples, Italy, on September 10-11, 2015. An expert committee developed questions on diagnosis and staging work-up, indications, and procedural aspects for peritonectomy, systemic chemotherapy, and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for PC from OC. These questions were provided to 6 invited speakers who answered with an evidence-based report. Each report was submitted to a jury panel, representative of Italian experts in the fields of surgical oncology, gynecology, and medical oncology. The jury panel revised the reports before and after the open discussion during the CC. This article is the final document containing the clinical evidence reports and statements, revised and approved by all the authors before submission.
