Summary

Evaluation of clinical outcome and economical aspects in the treatment of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Detailed description

Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a dooming finding with no hope for cure and a steadily decrease in quality of life. Cytoreductive surgery with intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS HIPEC) offers a small but proven chance for cure. The implementation of a CRS HIPEC and PIPAC programme in a Swiss tertiary care hospital is evaluated. When a patient is deemed non resectable, pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) administered laparoscopically may confer effective palliation.
