ABSTRACT Background Patients undergoing Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) are at risk of coagulopathy. This study aims to evaluate the potential role of rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) in detecting alterations in coagulation during and after CRS/HIPEC.
