Case Record

  • CRS+HIPEC for recurrent Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC)


Clinical History

    Patient #1
  • · Patient diagnosed with recurrent EOC (sensitive to platinum). Histology: mucinous tumor. Endocervical type
  • · Clinical, biochemical, and radiological response.
  • · Cytoreductive Radical Surgery plus Heated Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC) is proposed



Other History:

  • The radiological study was given at the diagnosis of the recurrence and the neoadjuvant CT treatment was finished


Technique Description

  • 1) Xiphopubic approach to the abdomen
  • 2) Rigorous exploration of all abdominal-pelvic regions
  • 3) Confirmation of the technical possibilities of complete cytoreduction with absence of visible tumor residue (CC-O)
  • 4) Strategic design of the CRS by unifying all the peritonectomy procedures described by Sugarbaker in two surgical steps
  • 5) Confirmation of the CC-O
  • 6) Administration of the HIPEC in the open mode (Colosseum)


Procedure Steps

  • 1) Parietal peritonectomy, pelvic peritonectomy with rectosigmoid resection
  • 2) Residual greater omentectomy, and splenectomy
  • 3) Subphrenic right peritonectomy and lesser omentectomy
  • 4) Digestive reconstruction. Colo-rectal anastomosis without stoma
  • 5) "Colosseum" HIPEC: preparation and administration. Preparation and administration of chemotherapy for 60 min at 42.5ºC


Learning Points

  • · Role of CRS + HIPEC in recurrent EOC ovarian cancer
  • · Use of Peritonectomy Procedures associated with visceral resection (Sugarbaker) to achieve complete CRS (macroscopic absence of tumor CC-O)
  • · Technical modifications to the original peritonectomy procedures
  • · Pelvic peritonectomy and rectosigmoid colon resection
  • · Greater (residual) omentectomy and splenectomy
  • · Left subphrenic peritonectomy
  • · Lesser omentectomy and cholecystectomy with stripping of the hepatoduodenal ligament
  • · Complete right subphrenic peritonectomy
  • · “True” end to end colorectal mechanical reinforced anastomosis
  • · Preparation and administration of the HIPEC in its “open” or coliseum modality
  • · Personal series results. 146 patients treated for recurrent EOC over 1.240 CRS+HIPEC
  • · Conclusions
