Peritoneal Carcinomatosis: Principles of Management

Part of the book series: Cancer Treatment and Research ((CTAR,volume 82))

Abstract

Peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal malignancy has always been regarded as a lethal clinical condition. Recently, a new strategy for treatment of established colorectal tumor implants within the abdominal cavity has been reported. A rationale for these treatments, based on the natural history of large bowel cancer, has been presented [1–11]. An interpretation of the pathobiology that regulates the distribution of cancer deposits within the abdominal cavity has been proposed [12,13 unpublished observations]. A pharmacologic basis for intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration as adjuvant therapy in the early postoperative period has been established [14,15]. The prognostic features that would allow proper patient selection have been recorded [16,17 unpublished observations]. These studies show that the lesser the extent of peritoneal carcinomatosis and the lower its invasive and metastatic potential, the better the results of cytoreductive treatment.
