[Clinical Evaluation of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy(HIPEC)in Colorectal Cancer Patients at High Risk of Peritoneal Recurrence].

PURPOSE: We herein report the clinical outcomes of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy(HIPEC)in patients at high risk of colorectal peritoneal metastasis.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: We enrolled 21 patients with advanced colorectal cancer who were received HIPEC between 2009 and 2014. Retrospectively, we evaluated the short-term and long-term outcomes of these cases.

RESULTS: We performed HIPEC for 12 patients with primary cancer and 9 with recurrent cancer. Perioperative complications characteristic of HIPEC did not occur. Seventeen patients(81%)had postoperative recurrence, 5 of whom had a peritoneal recurrence, and all of them already had synchronous peritoneal metastasis at the time of HIPEC. Patients with a higher peritoneal cancer index(PCI)had a tendency towards a higher rate of peritoneal recurrence than those with a lower PCI(11[median]vs 4; p=0.08).
