Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) with peritoneal metastases is a complex disease and its management presents significant clinical challenges. In well-selected patients at experienced centers, CRS/hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) can be performed with acceptable morbidity and is associated with prolonged survival. Based on the results of recent randomized controlled trials, HIPEC using oxaliplatin after CRS with shortened perfusion periods (30 minutes) is no longer recommended. There is a movement toward utilizing mitomycin C as a first-line intraperitoneal agent with extended perfusion times (90-120 minutes); however, there is currently little prospective evidence to support its widespread use.

Assessing risk of recurrent small bowel obstruction after non-operative management in patients with history of intra-abdominal surgery: a population-based comprehensive analysis in Taiwan. Surg Endosc 2024; 38:2433-2443. [PMID: 38453749 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-024-10746-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite a significant 30% ten-year readmission rate for SBO patients, investigations into recurrent risk factors after non-operative management are scarce. The study aims to generate a risk factor scoring system, the 'Small Bowel Obstruction Recurrence Score' (SBORS), predicting 6-month recurrence of small bowel obstruction (SBO) after successful non-surgical management in patients who have history of intra-abdominal surgery. METHODS We analyzed data from patients aged ≥ 18 with a history of intra-abdominal surgery and diagnosed with SBO (ICD-9 code: 560, 568) and were successful treated non-surgically between 2004 and 2008. Participants were divided into model-derivation (80%) and validation (20%) group. RESULTS We analyzed 23,901 patients and developed the SBORS based on factors including the length of hospital stay > 4 days, previous operations > once, hemiplegia, extra-abdominal and intra-abdominal malignancy, esophagogastric surgery and intestino-colonic surgery. Scores > 2 indicated higher rates and risks of recurrence within 6 months (12.96% vs. 7.27%, OR 1.898, p < 0.001 in model-derivation group, 12.60% vs. 7.05%, OR 1.901, p < 0.001 in validation group) with a significantly increased risk of mortality and operative events for recurrent episodes. The SBORS model demonstrated good calibration and acceptable discrimination, with an area under curve values of 0.607 and 0.599 for the score generation and validation group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We established the effective 'SBORS' to predict 6-month SBO recurrence risk in patients who have history of intra-abdominal surgery and have been successfully managed non-surgically for the initial obstruction event. Those with scores > 2 face higher recurrence rates and operative risks after successful non-surgical management.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism and postoperative bleeding are complications of cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The aim of this systematic review was to summarize current knowledge on the effect of cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC on coagulation and fibrinolysis within 10 days after surgery. Studies were identified in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science on December 12, 2022. Data on biomarkers of coagulation and fibrinolysis measured preoperatively up to the 10th postoperative day were extracted. Among 15 included studies, 13 studies reported markers of primary hemostasis. Eleven studies found reduced platelet count following cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC and two studies reported reduced platelet function. Twelve studies reported impaired secondary hemostasis until postoperative day 10 indicated by prolonged international normalized ratio, prothrombin time, and activated partial thromboplastin time. Fibrinogen was decreased in three studies from preoperative to postoperative day 3 switching to increased levels until postoperative day 10. In accordance, three studies found reduced maximum amplitude and maximum clot firmness by thromboelastography/thromboelastometry (ROTEM/TEG) on the first postoperative day indicating impaired clot strength. Four studies demonstrated increased d-dimer, factor (F) VIII, and thrombin generation during the 10 postoperative days. Four studies investigated fibrinolysis by ROTEM/TEG and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) after cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC reporting contradictive results. In conclusion, a decrease in platelet count and subtle changes in secondary hemostasis were found following cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC. Data on the effect of cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC on fibrinolysis are sparse and this needs to be further investigated.

Weekend Discharge Is Not Associated With Increased Readmission After Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy. J Surg Res 2024; 293:403-412. [PMID: 37806228 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2023.08.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION We explored the association between weekend discharge and 30- and 90-d readmission rates in patients undergoing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) for peritoneal carcinomatosis. METHODS The US HIPEC Collaborative database, comprised of a longitudinal cohort of patients undergoing CRS/HIPEC for peritoneal carcinomatosis at twelve academic institutions between 2000 and 2017, was queried for date of discharge information. Patients were retrospectively divided into weekday and weekend/holiday discharge groups. Patients <18 y old, lacking day of discharge information, or who experienced intraoperative/in-hospital mortality were excluded. Comparisons were made between patients discharged on a weekday versus those discharged on a weekend or major holiday. RESULTS 1415 patients met inclusion criteria for the study: 1108 (78%) patients with a weekday discharge and 308 (22%) with a weekend/holiday discharge. Median age at time of surgery was 55 y (Interquartile Range: 46-63); 59% (n = 841) patients were female, 25% (n = 328) of patients had high volume disease (defined as a peritoneal cancer index >20 intraoperatively), and 92% (n = 1210) of patients had a complete cytoreduction (defined as a completeness of cytoreduction score of 0 or 1). Overall, 15% (n = 218) of patients were readmitted within 30 d and 19% (n = 265) within 90 d. In a linear mixed effects model, weekend discharge was not associated with higher 30- or 90-d readmissions (P = 0.291, P = 0.743). CONCLUSIONS Weekend discharges are safe following CRS/HIPEC. Length of stay initiatives should focus on discharging the patient when medically ready, rather than avoiding weekend discharge out of an abundance of caution.

Readmission rates and outcomes in adults with and without COVID-19 following inpatient chemotherapy admission: A nationwide analysis. World J Clin Oncol 2023; 14:311-323. [PMID: 37700808 PMCID: PMC10494557 DOI: 10.5306/wjco.v14.i8.311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has received considerable attention in the scientific community due to its impact on healthcare systems and various diseases. However, little focus has been given to its effect on cancer treatment. AIM To determine the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on cancer patients' care. METHODS A retrospective review of a Nationwide Readmission Database (NRD) was conducted to analyze hospitalization patterns of patients receiving inpatient chemotherapy (IPCT) during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Two cohorts were defined based on readmission within 30 d and 90 d. Demographic information, readmission rates, hospital-specific variables, length of hospital stay (LOS), and treatment costs were analyzed. Comorbidities were assessed using the Elixhauser comorbidity index. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of readmission. Statistical analysis was conducted using Stata® Version 16 software. As the NRD data is anonymous and cannot be used to identify patients, institutional review board approval was not required for this study. RESULTS A total of 87755 hospitalizations for IPCT were identified during the pandemic. Among the 30-day index admission cohort, 55005 patients were included, with 32903 readmissions observed, resulting in a readmission rate of 59.8%. For the 90-day index admission cohort, 33142 patients were included, with 24503 readmissions observed, leading to a readmission rate of 73.93%. The most common causes of readmission included encounters with chemotherapy (66.7%), neutropenia (4.36%), and sepsis (3.3%). Comorbidities were significantly higher among readmitted hospitalizations compared to index hospitalizations in both readmission cohorts. The total cost of readmission for both cohorts amounted to 1193000000.00 dollars. Major predictors of 30-day readmission included peripheral vascular disorders [Hazard ratio (HR) = 1.09, P < 0.05], paralysis (HR = 1.26, P < 0.001), and human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome (HR = 1.14, P = 0.03). Predictors of 90-day readmission included lymphoma (HR = 1.14, P < 0.01), paralysis (HR = 1.21, P = 0.02), and peripheral vascular disorders (HR = 1.15, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the management of patients undergoing IPCT. These findings highlight the urgent need for a more strategic approach to the care of patients receiving IPCT during pandemics.

Perioperative nutritional assessment and interventions in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC): A systematic review. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:902-917. [PMID: 36872111 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2023.02.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2022] [Revised: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a catabolic state and cytoreductive surgery (CRS) is a high morbidity operation. Optimising perioperative nutrition is crucial to improve outcomes. This systematic review sought to examine literature describing clinical outcomes related to preoperative nutrition status and nutrition interventions in patients undergoing CRS with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS A systematic review was registered with PROSPERO (300326). A search of eight electronic databases was undertaken on 8th May 2022 and reported according to the PRISMA statement. Studies reporting nutrition status through use of screening and assessment tools, nutrition interventions or nutrition-related clinical outcomes for patients undergoing CRS with HIPEC were included. RESULTS Of 276 screened studies, 25 studies were included for review. Commonly used nutrition assessment tools for CRS-HIPEC patients included Subjective Global Assessment (SGA), sarcopenia assessment with computed tomography, preoperative albumin, and body mass index (BMI). Three retrospective studies compared SGA with postoperative outcomes. Malnourished patients were more likely to have postoperative infectious complications (p = 0.042 SGA-B, p = 0.025 SGA-C). Malnutrition was significantly associated with increased hospital length of stay (LOS) in two studies (p = 0.006, p = 0.02), and with overall survival in another study (p = 0.006). Eight studies analysing preoperative albumin levels reported conflicting associations with postoperative outcomes. BMI in five studies was not associated with morbidity. One study did not support routine nasogastric tube (NGT) feeding. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative nutritional assessment tools, including SGA and objective sarcopaenia measures, have a role in predicting nutritional status for CRS-HIPEC patients. Optimisation of nutrition is important for preventing complications.

Abstract
Background Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) is the standard treatment for patients with peritoneal cancer (PC). Following CRS-HIPEC, patients may also face risks caused by whole body hyperthermia. This study analyzed the incidence of temperature increases following CRS-HIPEC and identified the attendant risk factors. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out among 458 patients who received CRS-HIPEC at the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between August 2018 and January 2021. The patients were divided into two groups according to post-HIPEC axillary temperature (≥38°C), with the demographics and the laboratory test results subsequently analyzed and compared, and the risk factors pertaining to temperature increases analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results During CRS-HIPEC, 32.5% (149/458) of the patients with a temperature increase had an axillary temperature of not lower than 38°C, and 8.5% (39/458) of the patients with hyperpyrexia had an axillary temperature of not lower than 39°C. Female gender, gynecological malignancies, type of chemotherapy drug, increased postoperative neutrophil percentage, and a sharp drop in postoperative prealbumin were associated with the incidence of a temperature increase and axillary temperatures of >38°C. Among these factors, the type of chemotherapy drug was identified as an independent risk factor for a temperature increase during CRS-HIPEC. Conclusion By determining the risk factors pertaining to temperature increases during CRS-HIPEC, medical staff can identify the attendant risks among the patients and thus take preventive measures in a timely manner to maintain the patient's body temperature at a stable level. This suggests that further clinical research should be conducted to build a risk-prediction model for temperature increases following CRS-HIPEC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy may significantly improve survival for selected patients with peritoneal surface malignancies, but it has always been criticized due to the high incidence of postoperative morbidity and mortality. METHODS Data were collected from nine Italian centers with peritoneal surface malignancies expertise within a collaborative group of the Italian Society of Surgical Oncology. Complications and mortality rates were recorded, and multivariate Cox analysis was used to identify risk factors. RESULTS The study included 2576 patients. The procedure was mostly performed for ovarian (27.4%) and colon cancer (22.4%). The median peritoneal cancer index was 13. Overall postoperative morbidity and mortality rates were 34% and 1.6%. A total of 232 (9%) patients required surgical reoperation. Multivariate regression logistic analysis identified the type of perfusion (p ≤ 0.0001), body mass index (p ≤ 0.0001), number of resections (p ≤ 0.0001) and colorectal resections (p ≤ 0.0001) as the strongest predictors of complications, whereas the number of resections (p ≤ 0.0001) and age (p = 0.01) were the strongest predictors of mortality. CONCLUSIONS Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy is a valuable option of treatment for selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis providing low postoperative morbidity and mortality rates, if performed in high-volume specialized centers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a comprehensive treatment option performed for peritoneal surface malignancies. Postoperatively almost all patients are transferred to the intensive care unit electively.
AIM To describe the common and rare postoperative complications, postoperative mortality and their critical care management after CRS-HIPEC.
METHODS The authors assessed 54 articles for eligibility. Full text assessment identified 14 original articles regarding postoperative complications and critical care management for inclusion into the final review article.
RESULTS There is an exaggerated metabolic and inflammatory response after surgery which may be termed as physiological in view of the nature of surgery combined with the use of heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy with/out early postoperative intravenous chemotherapy. The expected postoperative course is further discussed. CRS-HIPEC is a complex procedure with some life-threatening complications in the immediate postoperative period, reported morbidity rates between 12%-60% and a mortality rate of 0.9%-5.8%. Over the years, since its inception in the 1980s, postoperative morbidity and survival have significantly improved. The commonest postoperative surgical complications and systemic toxicity due to chemotherapy as reported in the last decade are discussed.
CONCLUSION CRS-HIPEC is associated with a varying rate of postoperative complications including postoperative deaths and needs early suspicion and intensive care monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) for peritoneal malignancies carries considerable morbidity; however, the significance of postoperative small bowel obstruction (SBO) is not well defined. We aim to identify predictors for post-CRS/HIPEC SBO and their oncologic associations. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of all CRS/HIPEC cases performed at a surgical oncology center (2013-2018). Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, perioperative factors, and province-wide hospital readmissions were analyzed. Descriptive statistics were used for baseline characteristics, multivariate logistic regression for predictors of SBO at 1 year, and Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank test for survival analysis. RESULTS A total of n = 97 CRS/HIPEC procedures were performed for diagnoses of low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (44%), high-grade appendiceal adenocarcinoma (8%), colorectal adenocarcinoma (34%), and mesothelioma (9%). The median peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) score was 16. Cumulative incidence of post-CRS/HIPEC SBO readmission was 24% at 1 year and 38% at 2 and 3 years. Of 29 patients readmitted with SBO, 14 (48%) had more than one readmission for SBO, and nine surgeries were performed for obstruction. Multivariate regression identified significant independent predictors of SBO within 1-year post-CRS/HIPEC as high-grade appendiceal or colorectal primaries (odds ratio [OR] 4.58, p = 0.02) and PCI ≥ 20 (OR 3.27, p = 0.05). Overall survival (OS) was worse in patients readmitted with SBO within 1 year compared to those without (3-year OS 58% vs. 75%, p = 0.017). CONCLUSION SBO is the most common readmission diagnosis post-CRS/HIPEC and is associated with worse survival. High-grade appendiceal and colorectal primary tumors and PCI ≥ 20 are predictors for SBO.

[PMID: 34988834 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-11100-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Failure to thrive (FTT) is a complex syndrome of nutritional failure and functional decline. Readmission for FTT following cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS HIPEC) is common but underexamined. This study aims to determine features, risk factors, and prognostic significance of FTT following CRS HIPEC. PATIENTS AND METHODS We reviewed patients who underwent CRS HIPEC from 2010 to 2018 at our institution. Patients were categorized into no readmission, FTT readmission, and other readmission. FTT was determined by coding and chart review. We compared baseline characteristics, oncologic data, perioperative outcomes, and survival among the three cohorts. RESULTS Of 1068 discharges examined, 379 patients (36%) were readmitted within 90 days, of which 134 (12.5%) were labeled as FTT. Patients with FTT readmission had worse preoperative functional status, higher rates of malnutrition, more complex resections, longer hospital stays, and more postoperative complications (all p < 0.001). Ostomy creation [relative risk ratio (RRR) 4.06], in-hospital venous thromboembolism (VTE), discharge to nursing home (RRR 2.48), pre-CRS HIPEC chemotherapy (RRR 1.98), older age (RRR 1.84), and female gender (RRR 1.69) were all independent predictors for FTT readmission on multinomial regression (all p < 0.01). FTT readmission was associated with worse median overall survival on multivariate analysis [hazard ratio (HR) 1.60, p < 0.001] after controlling for oncologic, perioperative, and baseline factors. CONCLUSIONS FTT is common following CRS HIPEC and appears to be associated with baseline patient characteristics, operative burden, and postoperative complications. Perioperative strategies for improving nutrition and activity, along with early recognition and intervention in FTT may improve patient outcomes.

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.

Risk factors for gastric perforation after cytoreductive surgery in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis: Splenectomy and increased body mass index. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0248205. [PMID: 33661999 PMCID: PMC7932550 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0248205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2020] [Accepted: 02/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Gastric perforation after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) is an infrequent complication. There is lack of evidence regarding the risk factors for this postoperative complication. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of postoperative gastric perforation in patients undergoing CRS for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) and to evaluate risk factors predisposing to this complication. Methods We designed a unicentric retrospective study to identify all patients who underwent an open upfront or interval CRS after a primary diagnosis of PC of different origins between March 2007 and December 2018 at a French Comprehensive Cancer Center. The main outcome was the occurrence of postoperative gastric perforation. Results Five hundred thirty-three patients underwent a CRS for PC during the study period and 13 (2.4%) presented a postoperative gastric perforation with a mortality rate of 23% (3/13). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was administered in 283 (53.1%) patients and 99 (18.6%) received hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). In the univariate analysis, body mass index (BMI), peritoneal cancer index, splenectomy, distal pancreatectomy, and histology were significantly associated with postoperative gastric perforation. After multivariate analysis, BMI (OR [95%CI] = 1.13 [1.05–1.22], p = 0.002) and splenectomy (OR [95%CI] = 26.65 [1.39–509.67], p = 0.029) remained significantly related to the primary outcome. Conclusions Gastric perforation after CRS is a rare event with a high rate of mortality. While splenectomy and increased BMI are risk factors associated with this complication, HIPEC does not seem to be related. Gastric perforation is probably an ischemic complication due to a multifactorial process. Preventive measures such as preservation of the gastroepiploic arcade and prophylactic suture of the greater gastric curvature require further assessment.

The Impact of Thoracic Epidural Analgesia Versus Four Quadrant Transversus Abdominis Plane Block on Quality of Recovery After Cytoreductive Surgery with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Surgery: A Single-Center, Noninferiority, Randomized, Controlled Trial. Ann Surg Oncol 2021; 28:5297-5310. [PMID: 33534044 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-09622-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recovery after CRS-HIPEC influenced by several factors, including pain and opioid consumption. We hypothesized that 4Q-TAP blocks provide not inferior quality of recovery compared with TEA after CRS-HIPEC. We conducted a randomized, controlled trial to determine whether 4-quadrant transversus abdominis plane (4Q-TAP) block analgesia was noninferior to thoracic epidural (TEA) among patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS HIPEC). METHODS Patients 18 years or older who underwent a CRS-HIPEC surgery were randomly assigned to have either TEA or 4Q-TAP blocks. The primary outcome of this study was the change in quality of recovery 2 days after surgery. Secondary outcomes included quality of recovery on Days 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 30 postoperatively, opioid consumption, pain intensity, length of stay, and postoperative complications. Analyses were performed on a per-protocol basis. RESULTS Sixty-eight patients were included in the analysis. The difference between 4Q-TAP and TEA in the mean QoR-15 change from surgery at postoperative Days 1, 2, and 3 was 0.80 (P = 0.004), -4.5 (P = 0.134), and 3.4 (P = 0.003), respectively. All differences through postoperative day 30 were significantly within the noninferiority boundary of -10 except at postoperative Day 2 (P = 0.134). Length of stay, opioid-related adverse events, and frequency and grade of complications were not significantly different between TEA and 4Q-TAP patients. CONCLUSIONS Despite the significantly higher use of opioids after CRS-HIPEC in patients with 4Q-TAP blocks, their short-term quality of recovery was not inferior to those treated with TEA. Patients undergoing CRS-HIPEC can be effectively managed with 4Q-TAP blocks.

Predischarge Prediction of Readmission After Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy: Derivation and Validation of a Risk Prediction Score. Ann Surg Oncol 2021; 28:5287-5296. [PMID: 33486643 PMCID: PMC8349345 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-020-09547-7] [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: 07/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ninety-day hospital readmission rates following cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) range from 20 to 40%. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop and validate a simple score to predict readmissions following CRS/HIPEC. STUDY DESIGN Using a prospectively maintained database, we retrospectively reviewed clinicopathologic, perioperative, and day-of-discharge data for patients undergoing CRS/HIPEC for peritoneal surface malignancies between 2010 and 2018. In-hospital mortalities and discharges to hospice were excluded. Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to identify predictors of unplanned readmission, with three-quarters of the sample randomly selected as the derivation cohort and one-quarter as the validation cohort. Using regression coefficient-based scoring methods, we developed a weighted 7-factor, 10-point predictive score for risk of readmission. RESULTS Overall, 1068 eligible discharges were analyzed; 379 patients were readmitted within 90 days (35.5%). Seven factors were associated with readmission: stoma creation, Peritoneal Cancer Index score ≥ 15, hyponatremia, in-hospital major complication, preoperative chemotherapy, anemia, and discharge to nursing home. In the validation cohort, 25 patients (9.2%) were categorized as high risk for readmission, with a predicted rate of readmission of 69.3% and an observed rate of 76.0%. The score had fair discrimination (area under the curve 0.70) and good calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit p-value of 0.77). CONCLUSION Our proposed risk score, easily obtainable on day of discharge, distinguishes patients at high risk for readmission over 90 days following CRS/HIPEC. This score has the potential to target high-risk individuals for intensive follow-up and other interventions.

Guidelines for Perioperative Care in Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) with or without hyperthermic IntraPEritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC): Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) Society Recommendations - Part II: Postoperative management and special considerations. Eur J Surg Oncol 2020; 46:2311-2323.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways have been shown to considerably reduce complications, length of stay and costs after most of surgical procedures by standardised application of best evidence-based perioperative care. The aim was to elaborate dedicated recommendations for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in a two-part series of guidelines based on expert consensus. The present part II of the guidelines highlights postoperative management and special considerations. METHODS The core group assembled a multidisciplinary panel of 24 experts involved in peritoneal surface malignancy surgery representing the fields of general surgery (n = 12), gynaecological surgery (n = 6), and anaesthesia (n = 6). Experts systematically reviewed and summarized the available evidence on 72 identified perioperative care items, following the GRADE (grading of recommendations, assessment, development, evaluation) system. Final consensus (defined as ≥50%, or ≥70% of weak/strong recommendations combined) was reached by a standardised 2-round Delphi process, regarding the strength of recommendations. RESULTS Response rates were 100% for both Delphi rounds. Quality of evidence was evaluated high, moderate low and very low, for 15 (21%), 26 (36%), 29 (40%) and 2 items, respectively. Consensus was reached for 71/72(98.6%) items. Strong recommendations were defined for 37 items. No consensus could be reached regarding the preemptive use of fresh frozen plasma. CONCLUSION The present ERAS recommendations for CRS ± HIPEC are based on a standardised expert consensus process providing clinicians with valuable guidance. There is an urgent need to produce high quality studies for CRS ± HIPEC and to prospectively evaluate recommendations in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) is offered to select patients with peritoneal metastases. In instances of recurrence/progression, a repeat CRS/HIPEC may be considered. The perioperative morbidity and the potential oncologic benefits are not well described. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of a multiinstitutional database to assess the perioperative outcomes following repeat CRS/HIPEC (repeat). Kaplan-Meier and Cox estimates were used to assess survival. RESULTS In the entire cohort, 2157 patients were analyzed, with 158 (7.3%) in the repeat cohort. The rate of complete cytoreduction was 89.8% versus 83.0% in initial versus repeat groups. The overall incidence of major complications was similar (26.3% vs. 30.7%); however, reoperation was more common in the repeat group. Perioperative outcomes such as length of stay and nonhome discharge were not significantly different. For the entire cohort, 5-year overall survival (OS) was 56.0% in the initial group and 59.5% in the repeat group. In patients with only appendiceal cancer, we observed a 5-year OS of 64.0% in the initial group compared with 67.3% in the repeat cohort. For patients with appendiceal cancer who developed a recurrence/progression, median OS was 36 months in the no repeat operation group compared with 73 months for those that did. Multivariable regression demonstrated that completeness of cytoreduction and tumor grade were associated with OS, but repeat operation was not. CONCLUSIONS Repeat CRS/HIPEC is not associated with prohibitive risk. Survival is possibly improved, and therefore, repeat operation should be considered in selected patients with recurrent or progressive disease.

Abstract
Background: This study was to assess the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with
peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) and to evaluate the safety and feasibility of
physiotherapy program to prevent VTE during cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic
intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Methods: For VTE prevention, we developed a systematic physiotherapy program consisting of
active exercises of both arms and legs, and intermittent pneumatic compression device to
massage both legs. This physiotherapy was applied to all patients, and the VTE-related
events were recorded and analyzed. Results: Cytoreductive surgery + HIPEC was performed on 466 patients with PC. All patients had
highest VTE risk, with the median Caprini risk factor score being 11. During the 3-month
observation period, 8 patients had 9 (1.9%) clinically symptomatic VTE events, including
8 (1.7%) deep vein thrombosis and 1 (0.2%) pulmonary embolism. Among those, 5 patients
received pharmacological treatments with low-molecular-weight heparin, and the other 3
received physical exercises only. All these patients recovered well, and there was no
mortality about VTE perioperatively. Conclusions: Patients with PC treated by CRS + HIPEC are at highest risk for VTE. The systematic
physiotherapy program is safe and feasible to prevent VTE post CRS + HIPEC.

Abstract
Background Comprehensive readmission morbidity studies after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are scarce. This study aimed to investigate readmissions and in-hospital morbidity after CRS and HIPEC. Methods The national in-hospital patient register was used to identify patients via the HIPEC ICD code JAQ10 2004–2014. Data were retrieved from the index CRS/HIPEC treatment and from all HIPEC-related readmissions within 6 months. Univariate/multivariate logistical analyses were performed to identify risk factors for reinterventions and readmissions. Results A total of 519 patients (mean age 56 years) had a mean hospital stay of 27 days. Within 6 months, 150 readmissions for adverse events were observed in 129 patients (25%) with 67 patients requiring an intervention (13%). Totally 179 patients (34%) required a reintervention during the first 6 months with 85 (16%) requiring a reoperation. Of these 179 patients, 83 patients (46%) did not undergo the intervention at the HIPEC centre. Gastric resection was the only independent risk factor for in-hospital intervention, and advanced age for readmission. Conclusion Morbidity causing HIPEC-related readmission was higher than expected with almost half of the interventions occurring outside the HIPEC centre. Gastric resection and high age are independent predictors of morbidity and readmission.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) results in significant morbidity and readmissions. Previous studies have been limited by single-institution design or lack of tumor details in the database used. METHODS The 12-institution US HIPEC Collaborative Database was queried between 1999 and 2017. Preoperative and intraoperative patient and tumor details were analyzed for associations with readmissions. RESULTS A total of 2017 of 2372 cases were included in the analysis. The 30-day readmission rate was 15.9% (n = 321). Common indications for readmission included failure to thrive (29.9%), infection (23.6%), and ileus/bowel obstruction (15.1%). The readmitted cohort had more complications, including intra-abdominal abscess (21.2% vs 6.2%), ileus (28.0% vs 17.2%), anastomotic leak (11.2% vs 2.2%), enteric fistula (5.6% vs 1.5%), deep venous thrombosis (6.2% vs 2.5%), and pulmonary embolism (6.9% vs 2.5%). Factors independently associated with readmission (p < 0.05) included ECOG score ≥ 3 (OR 3.4), depression (OR 2.4), total parenteral nutrition (OR 3.6), low anterior resection or partial colectomy (OR 2.0), and stoma creation (OR 2.2). Factors not associated included neoadjuvant chemotherapy, peritoneal cancer index, and completeness of cytoreduction. Readmission rate between 31 and 90 days was 3.9% (n = 78). Independent predictors (p < 0.05) included operative time (OR 1.1), low anterior resection or partial colectomy (OR 1.7), and stoma creation (OR 2.2). CONCLUSIONS In the largest study to date examining readmissions after CRS-HIPEC, 30-day readmission rate was 15.9%. Tumor factors failed to predict readmission, whereas preoperative functional status and depression along with individual cytoreductive procedures predicted readmission. Patients with these risk factors or postoperative complications may benefit from closer post-discharge monitoring.

Abstract
Background Postoperative ambulation is encouraged to promote timely recovery but is rarely monitored objectively or examined as a predictor of clinical outcomes, despite growing availability of wearable devices that allow passive quantification and remote real-time monitoring of the number of steps taken during recovery. Purpose To determine whether the number of steps taken during inpatient recovery predicts 30- and 60-day readmission risk after metastatic cancer surgery. Methods Patients diagnosed with metastatic peritoneal cancer and scheduled for surgical resection were enrolled in this observational cohort study at their preoperative clinic visit. Fitbits were placed on patients' wrists upon transfer from the ICU following surgery and worn for the duration of their inpatient stay. Information about hospital readmission was extracted from electronic medical records. Results Seventy-one patients participated in the study (mean age = 57.14, range = 31-80 years; 42% female; 51% diagnosed with appendiceal cancer). Mean steps per day were calculated for each participant over the entire inpatient recovery period (mean stay = 12.12 days, 4-37 days). Readmission within 30 and 60 days was medically indicated for 34% and 39% of patients, respectively. After statistically adjusting for age, body mass index, comorbidity, and length of postoperative stay, higher mean steps per day predicted lower 30-day and 60-day readmission risk. Conclusions Higher Fitbit step counts during inpatient recovery predicted lower risk of 30- and 60-day readmission after surgery for metastatic peritoneal cancer. Results suggest that passively monitoring perioperative ambulation may identify patients at risk for readmission and highlight opportunities for behavioral intervention.

Incidence and Long-term Outcomes of Patients Requiring Early Reoperation After HIPEC. J Surg Res 2019; 244:395-401.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) remains a formidable operation associated with considerable morbidity. It is unclear how often these patients require reoperation for postoperative complications and if the need for reoperations leads to worse long-term outcomes. METHODS The Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Database at a single center was retrospectively queried. Out of 149 entries, 141 HIPECs performed between 2012 and 2018 met inclusion criteria. Patients were categorized based on early reoperation (<60 d after HIPEC), and demographic and tumor factors were compared using univariate analyses. Recurrence was calculated for patients with complete cytoreduction and overall survival analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS There were 15 reoperations after 141 HIPECs (10.6%). Median duration between HIPEC and reoperation was 18 d. Indications for reoperation included intra-abdominal infection (n = 5), bowel obstruction (n = 4), wound infection (n = 3), bleeding (n = 2), and evisceration (n = 1). There were no identified patient- or tumor-related risk factors for reoperation. Reoperations were associated with longer hospital length of stay (19 versus 9 d, P = 0.005) and 30-d readmissions (46.7% versus 12.8%, P = 0.003). There was no significant difference in 3-year recurrence-free survival, but there was a significant association between reoperation and 3-year overall survival (38.0% versus 71.9%, P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Complications requiring reoperation after HIPEC lead to increased short-term morbidity, longer hospital length of stay, and most importantly, reduced overall survival. Further studies investigating interventions to decrease complications and reduce reoperation rates are needed to improve outcomes after HIPEC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery and Hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) for peritoneal surface malignancies is associated with high morbidity. The increased numbers of patients undergoing CRS/HIPEC in recent years mandates risk analysis and quality assurance. However, only scarce data exist regarding causative parameters for readmission. The aim of this study was to assess readmission rates and risk factors associated with readmission. METHODS A retrospective-cohort study including patients from two high-volume centers who underwent CRS/HIPEC surgery between the years 2007-2016 was performed. Patients' demographics, peri-operative data and readmission rates were recorded. RESULTS 223 patients were included in the study. The 7 and 30-day readmission rates were 3.5% (n = 8) and 11% (n = 25), respectively. Late readmission rates (up to 90 days) were 11% (n = 25). The most common causes of readmission were surgical related infections (35%), small bowel obstruction (17.5%) and dehydration (14%). Post-operative complications were associated with higher readmission rates (p = 0.0001). PCI score was not associated with higher rates of readmission. CONCLUSION Readmissions following CRS/HIPEC occur mainly due to infectious complications and dehydrations. Patients following CRS/HIPEC should be discharged after careful investigation to a community based continuing care with access for IV fluid replacement or antibiotics administration when required.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Readmission rates following surgery are subject to scrutiny in efforts to control health care costs. This study was designed to define the 60-day readmission rate following cytoreduction and HIPEC at a high-volume center and to identify factors associated with readmission. METHODS Patients who underwent complete cytoreduction and HIPEC at a single institution from August 2007 through June 2014 were identified from a prospectively maintained database. Multiple preoperative and operative factors were analyzed for their ability to predict 60-day readmission following surgery. RESULTS A total of 250 patients were identified. Forty patients (17%) experienced readmission within 60 days of surgery. The most common reasons for readmission were ileus/dehydration (12, 31%), deep space infection (8, 21%), and DVT/PE (6, 15%). Initial postoperative length of stay was longer for patients readmitted within 60 days (median 12 vs. 9 days, p = 0.013). Of categorical variables analyzed, including gender, histology, HIPEC agent, intraoperative transfusion, and individual procedures performed during cytoreduction, adjuvant systemic therapy, and postoperative morbidity, only Charlson comorbidity index CCI (odds ratio (OR) = 3.80 [1.68-8.60]) and stoma creation (OR = 6.04 [1.56-12.14]) were associated with 60-day readmission. CONCLUSIONS Few measurable variables are associated with readmission following cytoreduction and HIPEC. Patients with high CCI and those with stomas created at the time of CRS/HIPEC may be at increased risk of readmission within 60 days. Earlier or more frequent follow-up for high-risk patients should be considered as a strategy to reduce readmissions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Water lavage (WL) during gastrointestinal cancer surgery has osmotically mediated lytic effects on tumor cells. We investigated the safety and efficacy of WL with CRS-HIPEC. METHODS This is a retrospective review, 1/2003-7/2014, of a single institution experience with CRS-HIPEC comparing patients who had WL (WL+) to those who did not (WL-). RESULTS Of 157 CRS-HIPECs, 16 (10.2%) were WL+. WL+ had more PCI scores >20 compared to WL- (56.3% vs 19.4%, respectively, p = 0.003); however, the completeness of cytoreduction (CC) was similar. There were no differences in hospital length of stay or post-operative complications. The average POD 1 sodium (Na) level was statistically lower in the WL+ group (133.6 ± 2.5 vs 135.5 ± 3.2 mEq/L, p = 0.023); however, the average Na at discharge for each group was 140 mEq/L. There were no differences in 3-year OS (3WL+:0.63 vs WL-:0.68, p = 0.97) or RFS (WL+:0.32 vs WL-:0.39, p = 0.47). A subset analysis for patients with PCI >20 showed no difference between groups. CONCLUSIONS WL offers a low cost, safe and theoretically efficacious method of tumor cell lysis for peritoneal malignancy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Unplanned readmissions are associated with a high cost to health insurances and the incidence of preventable readmissions could be considered as a quality indicator for the initial hospital admission. We aimed to assess the predictive value for unplanned readmission of higher pain scores at discharge of the initial admission as well as of other pain and demographic characteristics. The documentation of significant associations would provide further support for a structured pain management policy. METHODS A retrospective analysis of a large single university hospital data-set of 33.122 admissions within a 13-month period allowed for the assessment of the predictive relationship of pain toward unplanned readmission at 7 and at 30 days after discharge through logistic regression, and of other characteristics through linear regression. RESULTS Pain scores at discharge of the initial admission were not significantly different (p > 0.05) with or without unplanned readmission and hence have no predictive value on the individual patient level. The prediction of the number of patients for each group, for example the number of patients that will be readmitted (size of the group), shows significance for pain at the moment of discharge (p_initial = 0.000), pain medication (p = 0.0044), and age (p = 0.0017). Pathology (p = 0.6151) and gender (p = 0.7029) have no significant predictive value. CONCLUSION Pain as dichotomous variable upon discharge cannot be used as single risk predictor for unplanned readmission. However, the pain score at discharge in combination with the use of pain medication and age is a risk factor for the number of short-term unplanned readmissions.

Gastric perforation following cytoreductive surgery and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy: a case series of six. World J Surg Oncol 2017; 15:44.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Incidence of gastric perforation following cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (PIC) is not widely reported. METHODS Suitable patients were identified from our database of 1028 procedures. Relevant information was then gathered via medical records and operation reports for these patients. RESULTS Six patients suffered early postoperative gastric perforation following the procedure (0.58%), all of whom received heated intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Surgical exploration revealed protrusion of nasogastric (NG) tube through stomach wall defects which were either located at or near the greater curvature of stomach. These patients were managed successfully with operation, and no mortality was recorded. CONCLUSIONS Gastric perforation following CRS and PIC is most likely the result of a multifactorial process. To reduce the risk of such complication, avoiding nasogastric suction in these patients may prove helpful. Any suspected perforated viscus must be addressed promptly to avoid unwanted morbidity and mortality from the procedure. To our knowledge, conservative management has not been documented to work in this subgroup and surgery remains the mainstay of treatment.
