Comparison of MRI and CT for Predicting the Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) Preoperatively in Patients Being Considered for Cytoreductive Surgical Procedures

Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2014
To compare the accuracy of MRI and CT for predicting the Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) preoperatively compared with the PCI tabulated at surgery.Twenty-two patients underwent preoperative MRI and CT scanning followed by cytoreductive surgery for appendiceal (n = 17) and ovarian (n = 5) cancer.

Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy does not reduce surgical complexity nor the accuracy of intra-operative visual assessment of disease in advanced ovarian cancer.

European Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2023
AIM Compare the surgical complexity and histological accuracy of visual inspection of disease in patients undergoing primary debulking (PDS) versus delayed debulking surgery (DDS) following neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for advanced ovarian cancer ...

Ramirez's Abdominoplasty Technique Combined With Intraperitoneal Chemohyperthermia After Surgical Cytoreductive Procedures for the Treatment of Advanced Intraperitoneal Cancer in Patients With Ventral Hernia

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2010
Patients affected by peritoneal carcinomatosis are frequently submitted to repeated laparotomies to reduce intra-abdominal bulky lesions and to enhance the systemic chemotherapeutic action. Aim of our study is to evaluate feasibility and results of cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemohypertermic (IPCH) perfusion combined with Ramirez's ...

Combined Diffusion-Weighted and Gadolinium-Enhanced MRI Can Accurately Predict the Peritoneal Cancer Index Preoperatively in Patients Being Considered for Cytoreductive Surgical Procedures

Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2012
To determine whether abdominal and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with diffusion-weighted and dynamic gadolinium-enhanced imaging can be used to accurately calculate the peritoneal cancer index (PCI) before surgery compared to the PCI tabulated at surgery.Thirty-three patients underwent preoperative MRI followed by cytoreductive surgery for ...

Liver-directed surgical procedures during cytoreductive surgery for stage IV ovarian cancer

European Journal of Surgical Oncology
The incorporation of liver-directed surgical procedures into cytoreductive surgery represents a challenge in stage IV epithelial ovarian cancer. Overall, 49 patients undergoing primary or interval debulking surgery with at least one hepatobiliary procedure were retrospectively analyzed.

Cytoreductive procedures—strategies to reduce postoperative morbidity and management of surgical complications with special emphasis on anastomotic leaks

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2009
AbstractCytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the therapy of peritoneal carcinomatosis are associated with substantial morbidity and acceptable mortality. Patient selection, learning curve, patient warming, and reduced blood loss are the main factors to decrease morbidity.

Cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy: The learning curve reassessed.

European Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2016
Background: CytoReductive Surgery and Hyperthermic IntraPEritoneal Chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) is now the preferred treatment of many peritoneal surface malignancies. In this retrospective study we aimed to analyze how several performance indicators changed
