Synchronous Liver Resection, Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Colorectal Liver and Peritoneal Metastases: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Synchronous liver resection, cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for colorectal liver and peritoneal metastases has traditionally been contraindicated. More recent clinical practice has begun to promote this aggressive treatment in select patients.
Thermal Distribution, Physiological Effects and Toxicities of Extracorporeally Induced Whole‐Body Hyperthermia in a Pig Model
Fast induction of eWBH with homogenous thermal distribution is feasible in pigs using the Vithèr WBH device. Severe hemodynamic disturbances, rhabdomyolysis, and hyperkalemia were observed.
The Prognosis Impact of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) Plus Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) in Advanced Ovarian Cancer: The Meta-Analysis
Background and Objective Previous studies about the prognostic value of the HIPEC have yielded controversial results. Therefore, this study aims to assess the impact of HIPEC on patients with ovarian cancer. Results We included 13 comparative studies, and found that the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in HIPEC groups were superior to groups…
Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) and Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) in Ovarian Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Emerging evidence suggests that hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) shows a survival benefit over CRS alone for patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). This systematic review and meta-analysis will assess the safety and efficacy of HIPEC with CRS for EOC.
