Our objective was to determine if cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a feasible therapeutic option for treatment of peritoneal recurrence of endometrial carcinoma. Between August 2002 and May 2007, 5 patients with recurrent endometrial carcinoma confined to the peritoneal cavity who underwent CRS with HIPEC. Cisplatin (1 mg/kg) and mitomycin C (0.7 mg/kg) were perfused at an inflow temperature of 46 to 48°C for 90 minutes under systemic hypothermia (32°C). Of the 5 patients treated, histopathological type and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage were as follows: IB endometrioid (n = 1), IIIA endometrioid (n = 1), IIIC endometrioid (n = 2), and IC endometrioid + pseudosarcomatoid component (n = 1). The mean interval from initial surgery to CRS with HIPEC was 47.5 months (10-120 months). In all patients, CRS was complete. One patient with pseudosarcomatoid component developed recurrent disease 10 months after surgery and died 2 months later. One patient experienced early recurrence with a malignant pleural effusion and died. Three patients are alive and disease free at 7, 23, and 39 months from surgery with good performance status. Regarding the toxicity of the procedure, highly selected patients with recurrent endometrial carcinoma confined to the peritoneal cavity may benefit from improved survival after CRS with HIPEC.

AbstractPeritoneal surface disease (PSD) has historically been used interchangeably with the term peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) and has a dismal natural history. A variety of malignant pathologies, including colorectal and appendiceal primary tumors, can disseminate throughout the peritoneal cavity, leading to bowel obstruction and death. In general, peritoneal spread from high-grade appendiceal and colorectal primaries has the potential of hepatic and distant spread and best classified as PC. Low-grade appendiceal tumors are better categorized as PSD, due to low cellularity, high mucin production, and lack of potential spread outside the peritoneal cavity. Growing international experience with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) over the past 30 years has presented a therapeutic option to patients with PSD from colorectal and appendiceal tumors that can provide significant disease control, as well as potential for previously unattainable long-term survival. The proliferation of HIPEC centers and ongoing prospective trials are helping to standardize HIPEC techniques and patient selection.

Abstract Background Primary ovarian high-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma is a very rare disease. Even though it has poor prognosis, the gold standard treatment has not been established owing to its rarity. This report aimed to present therapeutic options for primary ovarian high-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma. Case presentation A 49-year-old Asian woman presented with disseminated intravascular coagulation due to ruptured primary high-grade ovarian endometrial stromal sarcoma with multiple intraperitoneal metastases. After the initial surgery, the patient underwent adjuvant chemotherapy with three courses of Adriamycin (75 mg/m2). We performed the secondary debulking operation including total hysterectomy, metastasectomy, omentectomy, peritonectomy, appendectomy, and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (paclitaxel 175 mg/m2). Currently she has been alive for 28 months under a new chemotherapy regimen. Conclusion We suggest cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy could be a therapeutic option for primary high-grade ovarian endometrial stromal sarcoma with peritoneal dissemination.

630 Background: Surgical resection of peritoneal metastases (PM) from colorectal cancer has been reported to yield outcomes similar to liver resection for hepatic metastases (HM). However recent data suggests PM may have a worse prognosis than other metastatic sites. Methods: A review of metastatic colorectal cancer patients obtained from prospective databases (1992-2010) comparing liver resection for HM to cytoreductive surgery (CS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for PM. Results: 181 patients underwent hepatic resection and 182 patients underwent CS/HIPEC with a median follow-up of 55 and 106 months respectively. A margin-negative resection was obtained in 168 (93%) hepatic resections, while 89 patients (49%) with PM had complete cytorection of all gross disease (R0/R1). A comparison of these two groups demonstrated significant differences in age, pre-operative chemotherapy and performance status. Disease-free median survival was 15.2 months after hepatic resection and 9.9 months after CS/ HIPEC (p=0.02). The 5-year overall survival (OS) for HM patients was 33% with a median OS of 45.0 months; while 5-year OS was 23% and median OS was 32.3 months for PM patients (p=0.02). In a proportional hazards regression model, performance status and pre-operative chemotherapy had no significant effect on survival, while increased age (p=0.02) and PM (p=0.03) were associated with decreased OS. Postoperative morbidity was 38% versus 51% (p=0.04) and mortality was 3.0% versus 2.3% (p=0.73) in the HM and PM groups, respectively. Conclusions: Disease-free survival and OS are worse for patients who received complete cytoreduction and CS/HIPEC for PM compared to margin-negative liver resection for HM suggesting a more aggressive tumor biology in PM.

Background. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) showed promise as initial treatment for stage IIIC (SIII) epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC); however, stage IV (SIV) outcomes are rarely reported. We assessed our experience and outcomes treating newly diagnosed SIV EOC with NACT plus CRS/HIPEC compared to SIII patients. Methods. Advanced EOC from 2015–2018 managed with NACT (carboplatin/paclitaxel) due to unresectable disease or poor performance status followed by interval CRS/HIPEC were reviewed. Perioperative factors were assessed. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed by stage. Results. Twenty-seven FIGO stage IIIC (n = 12) and IV (n = 15) patients were reviewed. Median NACT cycles were 3 and 4, respectively. Post-NACT omental caking, ascites, and pleural effusions decreased/resolved in 91%, 91%, and 100% of SIII and 85%, 92%, and 71% of SIV. SIII/SIV median PCI was 21 and 20 obtaining 92% and 100% complete cytoreduction (≤0.25 cm), respectively. Median organ resections were 6 and 7, respectively. Grade III/IV surgical complications were 0% SIII and 23% SIV, without hospital mortality. Median time to adjuvant chemotherapy was 53 and 74 days, respectively ( p = 0.007 ). SIII OS at 1 and 2 years was 100% and 83% and 87% and 76% in SIV ( p = 0.269 ). SIII 1-year PFS was 54%; median PFS: 12 months. SIV 1- and 2- year PFS was 47% and 23%; median PFS: 12 months ( p = 0.944 ). Conclusion. Outcomes in select initially diagnosed and unresectable SIV EOC are similar to SIII after NACT plus CRS/HIPEC. SIV EOC may benefit from CRS/HIPEC, and further studies should explore this treatment approach.
