Abstract

The majority of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei of appendiceal origin who have complete cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy are cured. There is increasing evidence to support that similar principles of surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy can be effective in patients with peritoneal mesothelioma and colorectal peritoneal metastases. The key to a successful outcome is complete cytoreduction. This chapter discusses the evidence behind cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, mainly in colorectal peritoneal metastases, and the challenges associated in selecting patients in whom this strategy is appropriate.
