Abstract
BACKGROUND Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (AMNs) with disseminated disease (pseudomyxoma peritonei) are heterogeneous tumors with variable clinicopathologic behavior. Despite the development of prognostic systems, objective biomarkers are needed to stratify patients. With the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS), it remains unclear if molecular testing can improve the evaluation of disseminated AMN patients. METHODS Targeted NGS was performed for 183 patients and correlated with clinicopathologic features to include American Joint Committee on Cancer/World Health Organization (AJCC/WHO) histologic grade, peritoneal cancer index (PCI), completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score, and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Genomic alterations were identified for 179 (98%) disseminated AMNs. Excluding mitogen-activated protein kinase genes and GNAS due to their ubiquitous nature, collective genomic alterations in TP53, SMAD4, CDKN2A, and the mTOR genes were associated with older mean age, higher AJCC/WHO histologic grade, lymphovascular invasion, perineural invasion, regional lymph node metastasis, and lower mean PCI (p < 0.040). Patients harboring TP53, SMAD4, ATM, CDKN2A, and/or mTOR gene alterations were found to have lower OS rates of 55% at 5 years and 14% at 10 years, compared with 88% at 5 years and 88% at 10 years for patients without the aforementioned alterations (p < 0.001). Based on univariate and multivariate analyses, genomic alterations in TP53, SMAD4, ATM, CDKN2A, and/or the mTOR genes in disseminated AMNs were a negative prognostic factor for OS and independent of AJCC/WHO histologic grade, PCI, CC score, and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy treatment (p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS Targeted NGS improves the prognostic assessment of patients with disseminated AMNs and identifies patients who may require increased surveillance and/or aggressive management.

Abstract
Objectives Peritoneal cancer index (PCI) score is a common prognostication tool in peritoneal metastases (PM). We hypothesize that the distribution of PCI score and involvement of specific regions affects survival and morbidity outcomes. Methods Data was collected from a prospective database of patients who underwent CRS and HIPEC for PM at the National Cancer Centre Singapore. We evaluate the relationship between PCI, PCI distribution, and survival and morbidity outcomes. Results One hundred and fifty-two patients underwent CRS and HIPEC with a median PCI score of nine (range 0–31). Median overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) were 43 and 17 months, respectively. Region six (pelvis) was most commonly involved and had the highest frequency of heavy disease burden. Presence of PM in the lower abdomen, flanks, and small bowel were associated with poorer OS (p=0.01, 0.03, <0.001) and PFS (p=0.04, 0.02, <0.001). Involvement of porta hepatitis predicted poorer OS but not PFS (p=0.03). Involvement of the gastric antrum resulted in higher rates of postoperative complications. Conclusions The pattern of PCI distribution may be associated with varying survival and morbidity outcomes.

Pleura Peritoneum 2022; 7:63-75. [PMID: 35812011 PMCID: PMC9166269 DOI: 10.1515/pp-2021-0148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2021] [Accepted: 03/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Various studies have shown that good quality of life (QoL) can be achieved after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). There is prognostic value of baseline QoL in post-operative outcome in Western setting. Our prospective study aims to validate these observations and elucidate clinical factors that predict poorer QoL in Asian peritoneal carcinomatosis patients.
Methods
European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Core Quality of Life Questionnaire was administered to patients before CRS and HIPEC and thereafter at 3, 6 and 12 months.
Results
A total of 151 patients underwent 155 surgeries. Four hundred and seventy two questionnaires were completed. Median disease-free survival (DFS) was 16.5 months. Three year DFS and overall survival (OS) were 24.0% and 73.0% respectively. Post-operative global health status significantly increased at 3, 6 and 12 months. The decreases in functional scales recovered to baseline by 1-year post-surgery. Peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI), presence of stoma, peritonectomy duration, death within one year, post-operative complication and length of SICU stay negatively influenced QoL. Complication rates were higher in patients with lower global health status, physical and role functioning scores and higher symptom summary scores at baseline. Lower social functioning score, and higher pain, dyspnoea and symptom summary scores at baseline were significantly associated with poorer OS.
Conclusions
Various clinical factors can help us predict a patient’s QoL after surgery. Several baseline factors were also able to predict morbidity and survival. Going forward, we can use these factors to help us better select patients who will have a greater benefit from CRS and HIPEC.

Predicting Early and Late Readmissions Following Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy. Ann Surg Oncol 2021; 28:6613-6624. [PMID: 34304310 PMCID: PMC8460494 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-10414-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Background Postoperative readmissions not only burden the healthcare system but may also affect clinical outcomes of cancer patients. Despite this, little is known about readmissions after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), or their impact on survival outcomes. Patients and Methods A single-institution retrospective cohort study of CRS-HIPEC procedures from April 2001 and September 2019 was performed. Early readmission (ERA) was defined as hospitalization within 30 days of discharge post-CRS/HIPEC, while late readmission (LRA) was defined as hospitalization between day 31 and 90 after discharge. Patient demographic, oncological, and perioperative factors were analyzed to identify predictors of readmission, and comparison of survival outcomes was performed. Results Overall, 342 patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC were included in the study. The incidence of ERA and LRA was 18.5% and 7.4%, respectively. High-grade postoperative complication was the only independent predictor of ERA (HR 3.64, 95% CI 1.47–9.02), while comorbid hypertension (HR 2.71, 95% CI 1.17–6.28) and stoma creation (HR 2.83, 95% CI 1.23–6.50) were independent predictors for LRA. Patients with readmission had significantly worse disease-free survival than patients who had no readmission (NRA) (LRA 1.1 years, ERA 1.2 years, NRA 1.8 years, p = 0.002), and patients with LRA had worse median overall survival (2.1 years) than ERA patients (3.3 years) or patients without readmission (4.4 years) (p < 0.001). Conclusions Readmission following CRS-HIPEC is associated with adverse survival outcomes. In particular, LRA may portend worse prognosis than ERA.

The addition of sodium thiosulphate to hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with cisplatin in ovarian cancer. Gynecol Oncol Rep 2021; 37:100796. [PMID: 34141848 PMCID: PMC8185237 DOI: 10.1016/j.gore.2021.100796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Revised: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Cisplatin chemotherapy is highly nephrotoxic and is a dose limiting side effect. The OVIHIPEC-1 trial employed sodium thiosulphate (ST) as a renal protectant. We analyse the implementation of HIPEC for EOC in a peritoneal malignancy centre. One acute kidney injury (AKI) event was noted when ST was not used with HIPEC. No AKI was observed when sodium thiosulphate was used with cisplatin at 100 mg/m2.
Cisplatin based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been shown to prolong recurrence free and overall survival of women with ovarian cancer who have responded to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of cytoreductive surgery with or without the addition of HIPEC on renal function. Method This is a retrospective case-controlled study at a tertiary teaching hospital in Dublin, Ireland. All patients who had interval cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and HIPEC from October 2017 to October 2020 were included. A cohort of patients who had interval CRS without HIPEC were included as a control. Sodium thiosulphate (ST) was added to the HIPEC protocol in 2019. In order to assess the impact of ST as a renal protectant, renal function and post-operative outcomes were compared between the groups. Results Sixty patients who had interval CRS were included, thirty of whom received cisplatin-based HIPEC. Seven received cisplatin 50 mg/m2 without the addition of ST. Twenty three patients received cisplatin 100 mg/m2 and ST. There were no statistically differences in age, body mass index BMI, American society of anaesthesia score, estimated blood loss or peritoneal cancer index between the cohorts (p > 0.05). The only episode of acute kidney injury (AKI) was within the HIPEC cohort, after cisplatin 50 mg/m2 (without ST) and this was sustained at three months. In contrast, no patients within the CRS cohort or cisplatin 100 mg/m2 that received the addition of ST, sustained a renal injury and all had a creatinine within the normal range at three days post operatively. Conclusion The renal toxicity associated with cisplatin HIPEC and major abdominal surgery can be minimised with careful preoperative optimisation, intra operative fluid management and attention to renal function. The addition of sodium thiosulphate is a safe and effective method to minimise toxicity and should be added to any cisplatin HIPEC protocol.

Abstract
Background Colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM) occur in up to 13% of patients with colorectal cancer, presenting either synchronously or metachronously. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS and HIPEC) have been increasingly utilised for selected CPM patients with favourable outcomes, though its benefits may differ for synchronous (s-CPM) and metachronous CPM (m-CPM). Methods A retrospective analysis of CPM patients treated with CRS and HIPEC at the National Cancer Centre Singapore over 15 years was performed. In the s-CPM group, CPM was diagnosed at primary presentation with CRS and HIPEC performed at the time of or within 6 months from primary surgery. In the m-CPM group, patients developed CPM > 6 months after primary curative surgery. Results One hundred two patients with CPM were treated with CRS and HIPEC. Twenty (19.6%) patients had s-CPM and 82 (80.4%) had m-CPM. Recurrences occurred in 45% of s-CPM and in 54% of m-CPM (p = 0.619). Median overall survival was significantly prolonged in patients with m-CPM (45.2 versus 26.9 months, p = 0.025). In a subset of m-CPM patients with limited PCI in whom ICU stay was not required, a survival advantage was seen (p = 0.031). Conclusion A survival advantage was seen a subset of m-CPM patients, possibly representing differences in disease biology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is increasingly used in peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) management. This modality is criticized for its high morbidity and mortality. We evaluate the morbidity and mortality of patients undergoing this procedure in our institution. METHODS A review of our institution's database was performed. All patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC between July 2011 and March 2018 were divided into three groups: no, low-grade, and high-grade complications. Prognostic factors were determined with Cox regression, while morbidity risk factors were analyzed using multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS 225 consecutive patients underwent CRS/HIPEC. The most common primary cancer types were colorectal (35.1%), appendiceal (25.8%), and ovarian (22.2%). Median age was 55 years old (range 14-77), and patients were typically female (68.0%). 38.7% developed low-grade complications and 14.7% had high-grade complications. No 30-day mortality was observed. Different tumor origins are associated with significant differences in overall survival (p < 0.001). Patients without complications had significantly better survival than those with high-grade complications (HR 0.35, 95% CI 0.15-0.81, p < 0.001). Males were more likely to develop low-grade complications (OR 3.30, 95% CI 1.31-8.30, p = 0.011). Intra-operative blood loss was associated with greater odds of developing any post-operative complications (OR 1.001, 95% CI 1.0003-1.002, p = 0.007; and OR 1.002, 95% CI 1.001-1.002, p < 0.001, for low and high grade, respectively). CONCLUSION Presence of high-grade complication was associated with poorer survival in patients after CRS/HIPEC. Pre-operative careful assessment of patients is pivotal to ensure favorable patient outcome following this complex procedure.

Systematic Review of Variations in Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) for Peritoneal Metastasis from Colorectal Cancer. J Clin Med 2018; 7:jcm7120567. [PMID: 30572653 PMCID: PMC6306814 DOI: 10.3390/jcm7120567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 53] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2018] [Revised: 12/05/2018] [Accepted: 12/10/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS), followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), combines radical surgery with abdominal heated chemotherapy, constituting a multimodal treatment approach. Since clear standards for HIPEC conduct in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) are lacking, we aimed to provide a comprehensive structured survey. Data sources and study eligibility criteria: A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, with keywords “HIPEC” and “colorectal cancer”, according to established guidelines. Articles were systematically screened, selecting 87 publications complemented by 48 publications identified through extended search for subsequent synthesis and evaluation, extracting inter alia details on used drugs, dosage, temperature, exposure times, and carrier solutions. Results: Compiled publications contained 171 reports on HIPEC conduct foremost with mitomycin C and oxaliplatin, but also other drugs and drug combinations, comprising at least 60 different procedures. We hence provide an overview of interconnections between HIPEC protocols, used drugs and carrier solutions as well as their volumes. In addition, HIPEC temperatures and dosing benchmarks, as well as an estimate of in vivo resulting drug concentrations are demonstrated. Conclusions and implications: Owing to recent developments, HIPEC conduct and practices need to be reassessed. Unfortunately, imprecise and lacking reporting is frequent, which is why minimal information requirements should be established for HIPEC and the introduction of final drug concentrations for comparability reasons seems sensible.

Pleura Peritoneum 2018; 3:20180122. [PMID: 30911666 PMCID: PMC6404993 DOI: 10.1515/pp-2018-0122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2018] [Accepted: 10/01/2018] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is routinely used for selected patients with peritoneal metastasis, but can be associated with high complication rates, prolonged hospital stay, and mortality. Our objective was to determine the learning curve of CRS/HIPEC in our institution, representing the largest Asian cohort to date. Methods A total of 200 consecutive patients with peritoneal metastasis treated with CRS/HIPEC between 2001 and 2016 were grouped into four cohorts of 50 patients and studied. Primary outcomes were severe morbidity (Clavien-Dindo III-V), procedure-related mortality, and duration of ICU and hospital stays. Secondary outcome was duration of surgery. Results Median age was 53 years (10–75). There was no significant age, sex, or histology difference across cohorts. Rates of severe morbidity (23 %), and 60 day inpatient mortality (0.5 %) were comparable to previously reported data. Decreases in rates of serious morbidity, (34 %, 30 %, 12 %, 14 %, p<0.01) and duration of total hospital stay (14, 16, 13, 12 days, p=0.041) were seen across consecutive cohorts. Operation time decreased significantly after the first cohort (10, 7.8, 7.8, 7.2 h, p<0.01), despite increase in average PCI score after the first cohort (8, 14, 12, 13, p=0.063). Conclusions Whilst 50 cases were adequate for procedural familiarity and decreased average operation time, significant improvement in rate of serious morbidity was observed after 100 operations. We demonstrate a novel biphasic nature to the learning curve, reflecting initial training in which technical competence is achieved, followed by a subsequent period characterized by increasingly complex cases (higher PCI score) and finally refinement of patient selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stage IV colorectal cancer encompasses various clinical conditions. The differences in prognosis after surgery between different metastatic organs have not been fully investigated. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess prognostic significance in peritoneal metastasis in R0 resected stage IV colorectal cancer. DESIGN We conducted a multicenter retrospective study of patients with R0 resected stage IV colorectal cancer; they were categorized into 3 groups according to the number and location of metastatic organs, including single-organ metastasis in the peritoneum, single-organ metastasis at sites except the peritoneum, and multiple-organ metastases. SETTINGS This study used data accumulated by the Japanese Study Group for Postoperative Follow-Up of Colorectal Cancer. PATIENTS A total of 1133 patients with R0 resected stage IV colorectal cancer were registered retrospectively between 1997 and 2007 in 20 referral hospitals. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Cancer-specific survival rates between the groups were measured. RESULTS The median cancer-specific survival of the single-organ metastasis in the peritoneum group was considerably shorter than that of the single-organ metastasis at a site other than the peritoneum group and was almost comparable to that of the multiple-organ metastases group (3.41 years, 6.20 years, and 2.99 years). In a multivariate analysis of cancer-specific survival, peritoneal dissemination was confirmed as an independent prognostic factor of survival. The median postrecurrence survival of single-organ metastasis in the peritoneum group was considerably shorter than that of the single-organ metastasis at a site other than the peritoneum group. Approximately half of the patients who experienced recurrence of single-organ metastasis in the peritoneum experienced peritoneal recurrence. LIMITATIONS This was a retrospective, population-based study that requires a prospective design to validate its conclusions. CONCLUSIONS Peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancer frequently recurred in the peritoneum even after R0 resection. The cancer-specific survival of the single-organ metastasis in the peritoneum group was as poor as that of the multiple-organ metastases group. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/A398.

Abstract
Objectives The therapeutic efficacy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal cancer (CRC) is still under debate. This meta-analysis and systematic review of published literature on this comprehensive strategy aims to evaluate its efficacy on CRC patients with PC. Methods A systemic review with meta-analysis of published literatures on treatment of CRS plus HIPEC for patients with PC from CRC was performed. In addition, a summary of study results of published literatures concerning CRS plus HIPEC treating patients with PC from CRC was also conducted. Results A total of 76 studies were selected, including 1 randomized controlled trial, 14 non-randomized controlled studies, and 61 non-controlled studies. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) for overall survival (OS) in the 15 researches for meta-analysis was 2.67 (95% CI, 2.21-3.23, I2= 0%, P < 0.00001), and no significant evidence of publication bias was found. The difference of chemotherapy regimens of HIPEC was not associated with OS and DFS (disease-free survival) after CRS and HIPEC, with no significant difference of heterogeneity (P = 0.27, I2 = 24.1%). In both groups of mitomycin C based HIPEC group and oxaliplatin group, patients received HIPEC had significant better survival (P < 0.00001). The mean mortality and morbidity for HIPEC program were 2.8% and 33.0%, respectively. Conclusions This meta-analysis revealed that comprehensive therapeutic strategy of CRS plus HIPEC could bring survival benefit for selected patients with PC from CRC with acceptable safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is becoming accepted treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal cancer. Quality of life (QoL) for patients after surgery is still a concern amongst physicians despite studies that show that QoL recovers after surgery. We conducted a prospective QoL study on patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC and attempt to identify factors that affect the QoL. METHODS Patients who underwent CRS and HIPEC for PC from colorectal cancer from March 2012 to January 2015 were included. The European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Core Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-C30) and the colorectal module (QLQ-CR29) were administered prior to surgery and thereafter at 3, 6, and 12 months. RESULTS Twenty-three patients underwent 25 procedures. Median disease-free survival was 12.9 months [95 % confidence interval (CI) 2.5-19.3]. Physical and role functioning scores decreased at 3 months but returned to baseline at 6 months. There were significant increases in emotional and social functioning scores at 6-12 months and improvements in all symptoms scales at 6-12 months, especially the fatigue and appetite scores. A higher PCI score, longer duration of surgery, the presence of a stoma, and recurrence within 3 months were associated with a poorer QoL. CONCLUSIONS QoL after CRS and HIPEC improved or returned to baseline in all categories by 6-12 months after surgery. Patient selection is important not only for improved survival but also for improved QoL.

Abstract
Cancer is the leading cause of death in Singapore, comprising almost 30% of annual deaths. The incidence and prevalence continue to rise, resulting in Singapore having the highest age-standardized rate of cancer in southeast Asia. A review of national health policies in 1992 resulted in the creation of a National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS) in 1999. The current NCCS, with its three pillars of clinical service, research and education, manages about 70% of all new cancer cases in the countries public healthcare system. As it outgrows its current outfit and looks to the new NCCS building in 2020, the goal must be for strategic planning to attract and retain the best minds and heart in the field of cancer if it were to continue to be successful in achieving its vision and mission. This article chronicles the NCCS's history and details the foundation of its strategic plans.

Incidence and treatment of recurrent disease after cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneally metastasized colorectal cancer: A systematic review. Eur J Surg Oncol 2015; 41:1269-77.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The optimal treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) of colorectal origin is a combination of cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + IPC). Although 5-year survival rates of up to 40% have been reported, recurrent disease remains common and is estimated to be a strong negative prognostic factor for survival. This systematic review elaborates on the incidence of recurrent disease and the possibilities to prevent and treat recurrence. METHODS Two searches were performed. To identify the magnitude of recurrent the disease, a search was performed in Pubmed and EMBASE until September 2014. A second search was performed in Pubmed to identify treatment of recurrent disease with secondary CRS + IPC. RESULTS The first search resulted in 139 and 94 articles in Pubmed and EMBASE respectively. Among those, 28 were included. Overall recurrence rates ranged from 22.5 to 82%. Local, systemic and combined local-systemic recurrence ranged from 6 to 42.5%, 10.4-43% and 5.8-21.5%. Median time to recurrence varied from 9 to 23 months, three-year disease free survival ranged from 14 to 41.5%. The second search resulted in 140 articles among which 17 met the inclusion criteria. A total of 190 patients underwent secondary CRS. Median survival after the second procedure ranged from 18 to 55.7 months. One, two and three-year survival ranged between 66 and 94, 44-50 and 0-66%. CONCLUSION Recurrence is very common after cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy for PC of colorectal origin. Repeat cytoreductive surgery suggests a potential survival benefit for a highly selected group. Therefore, strategies to prevent recurrence are of the utmost importance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant mesothelioma is a rare, insidious, and aggressive tumor arising from the mesothelial surface of pleural and peritoneal cavities, the pericardium, or the tunica vaginalis, with an increasing incidence worldwide, high misdiagnosis rate, and overall negative prognosis. A total of 20% of all cases is peritoneum in origin. METHODS The present study is a review of literatures focusing on the advances in epidemiology, clinical presentations, radiological features, diagnosis, misdiagnosis, management, and prognostic factors of malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) occurred in the past decades. RESULTS Asbestos, SV40, and radiation exposures have been demonstrated to be correlated with the pathogenesis of MPM. The main presentations are abdominal distension and pain. Computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron-emission tomography (PET) play an important role in the preoperative imaging and staging. Definitive diagnosis is made on the basis of immunohistochemistry. Prognostic factors have been identified and verified. Negative indicators include advanced age, male gender, poor performance status, non-epithelial histology, and absence of surgery. The management of MPM has evolved from single chemotherapy to multimodality treatment of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy. Promising results have been achieved after a combined treatment of CRS and HIPEC, with an elevated median survival time of 29.5-92 months and a 5-year survival rate of 39-63%. CONCLUSIONS CRS and HIPEC represent the standard treatment strategy for selected patients with MPM, and patients with unresectable tumors can benefit from the combined treatment of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Ovarian cancer is the commonest gynaecological cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide. The majority of patients with ovarian cancer present at an advanced stage, and up to 70% of those treated with a curative approach eventually recur and succumb to their disease. This article examines the management of ovarian cancer over the years and the role of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in the treatment algorithm. RECENT FINDINGS The surgical paradigm for ovarian cancer has changed and the goal is optimal cytoreduction with no residual disease. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been found to be superior to intravenous treatment alone, and the combination of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has produced encouraging results with improved disease-free and overall survivals at acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. SUMMARY The most important prognostic factor for ovarian cancer survival is the ability to achieve optimal cytoreduction with no residual disease. CRS and HIPEC should be considered as an option for the management of advanced ovarian cancer and further trials are required to determine its role in both the primary and recurrent settings.

Abstract
PURPOSE To estimate the feasibility and limitations of incomplete cytoreductive surgery and modern systemic chemotherapy in patients with synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer and to identify risk factors for death and factors associated with the patient prognosis. METHODS Sixty-five consecutive patients underwent surgery for synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer at Hiroshima University, Japan between 1992 and 2012. The clinical, histological, and survival data were analyzed for independent risk factors and prognostic factors. The patients were retrospectively stratified into two groups according to the extent of surgery: complete cytoreductive surgery or incomplete cytoreductive surgery. RESULTS The median survival times in the complete and incomplete cytoreductive surgery groups were 29.8 and 10.0 months, respectively. Receiving systemic chemotherapy alone was an independent risk factor for death in the incomplete cytoreductive surgery group (P < 0.001). Oxaliplatin and molecular-targeted drug (cetuximab or bevacizumab) therapies were also independent prognostic factors (P < 0.001), whereas irinotecan therapy was not a prognostic factor (P = 0.494). CONCLUSION Oxaliplatin and molecular-targeted drug therapies improved the overall survival in patients undergoing incomplete cytoreductive surgery. Future trials for patients with synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer should be undertaken, with patients stratified according to treatment with complete cytoreductive surgery or incomplete cytoreductive surgery with modern chemotherapy.
