Register With Data From Patients With the Diagnosis of a Peritoneal Surface Malignancy, for Which Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intra-Peritoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is Performed


To register the follow-up data of patients who, because of a peritoneal surface malignancy,
will undergo cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. In this surgical intervention, the abdominal
cavity is macroscopically cleared of tumor, by removing all visible tumor nodules, and is
subsequently rinsed with hyperthermic (heated) chemotherapy, aiming to destroy all residual
invisible tumor cells that might have stayed behind after the debulking.

The eventual aim of this procedure is to improve the prognosis/survival of patients with
malignancies localized on the peritoneal surface.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal origin, patients with
pseudomyxoma peritonei (type DPAM or PMCA) and patients with peritoneal mesothelioma
who are planned to undergo cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC because of a peritoneal
surface malignancy

Type of Study:

Observational

Study Design:

Observational Model: Case-Only, Time Perspective: Prospective

Outcome Measure:

To improve the prognosis/survival of patients with malignancies localized on the peritoneal surface.

Outcome Time Frame:

Follow-up over a time period of at least 5 years

Safety Issue:

No
