Cytoreduction and HIPEC in the treatment of "unconventional" secondary peritoneal carcinomatosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is considered a terminal and incurable disease. In the last 30 years, cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) radically changed the therapeutic approach for these patients ...
