About this Procedure
Cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy) is a combined treatment for cancer that has spread to the peritoneum, the lining of the abdomen. First, the surgeon removes all visible tumours (cytoreductive surgery). Then heated chemotherapy is circulated through the abdominal cavity to destroy remaining microscopic cancer cells. Delivering chemotherapy directly into the abdomen allows a high concentration where it is needed.
It may be recommended for cancers that have spread to the peritoneum from the colon or rectum, ovaries, stomach or appendix, and for primary peritoneal cancer and peritoneal mesothelioma. Not everyone is suitable: the team looks at how far the disease has spread, whether it can all be removed and your general fitness.
The whole procedure is done under general anaesthetic. After cytoreduction, the surgeon places catheters in the abdomen and circulates warmed chemotherapy while your body is gently moved to spread it evenly, then drains and rinses the abdomen before closing. Together, surgery and HIPEC usually take five to ten and a half hours. You may spend time in intensive care, and the hospital stay is typically several days to two weeks. Recovery at home takes around four to twelve weeks.
