RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The presence at diagnosis, or development of, colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM) is common in colorectal cancer. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) show promising results in selected patients with CPM. The current study aimed to describe oncologic outcomes of patients with CPM, focusing on recurrence patterns and risk factors for adverse events. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective review of patients with CPM treated by CRS and HIPEC at a single institution between 2000 and 2021. RESULTS: A total of 555 patients were included, of whom 480 (86.5%) had complete cytoreduction, with a median age of 59 years and median Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) of 6. Following complete cytoreduction, 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were 51% and 31%, respectively. In multivariable Cox regression, PCI >6 (hazard ratio [HR] 2.25), pathological node positivity (pN+; HR 1.94), and perineural invasion (HR 1.85) were associated with decreased OS, while PCI >6, pN+, and previous systemic metastases resulted in reduced DFS. Overall, 284 (62%) patients developed recurrence, of whom 97 (34%) had local recurrence (LR), 100 (35%) had systemic recurrence (SR), and 87 (31%) had combined recurrence (5-year OS: 49.3%, 46%, and 37.4%, respectively). Mutated KRAS (mKRAS) was associated with lower 5-year OS (55.8%) and DFS (27.9%) compared with wild-type KRAS (wtKRAS; 70.7% and 37.6%, respectively). In multivariable analyses, mKRAS was related to decreased OS (HR 1.82), DFS (HR 1.55), and SR (OS 1.89), but not to LR. CONCLUSIONS: Complete cytoreduction results in good survival outcomes for patients with CPM. Burden of peritoneal disease and tumor biology are the main predictors of survival. Patients with mKRAS are a high-risk cohort, with increased probability of SR and reduced survival.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The role of gastrectomy to achieve complete cytoreduction (CCR) for pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is controversial due to uncertain risk/benefit ratio. The outcomes of patients who gastrectomy over a twenty-year period in a high-volume unit are reported. METHODS: All patients requiring gastrectomy to achieve CCR for appendiceal PMP between 2000 and 2020 were reviewed. Demographics, disease, operative, complication, and survival data were analysed. The first and second decades were compared. RESULTS: A total of 2148 patients underwent CRS and HIPEC, of which 78% had CCR. Gastrectomy was performed in 7.1%. Median age was 55 years, and 52% were female. Among gastrectomy patients, 94.2% had ≥1 elevated tumour marker, and 18% had high-grade disease. Median PCI was 30, and 30% required subtotal colectomy. Clavien-Dindo III-IV complications occurred in 32%, and 90-day mortality was 1.75%. Median survival was 104 months, and 10-year OS was 47%. Comparing the two decades, total CRS cases almost tripled, with a greater proportion achieving CCR (82.2% vs. 67.8%) but fewer requiring gastrectomy (5.3% vs. 13.5%). In those who had gastrectomy, disease was more advanced (higher PCI, more high-grade disease, more colectomies) in the later period. However, on multivariable analysis, there was no difference in survival between decades. High-grade histology was the only predictor of survival. CONCLUSIONS: Gastrectomy can achieve good long-term survival with low mortality and acceptable morbidity and should not deter surgeons from achieving CCR. However, increasing experience shows CCR can be achieved, preserving the stomach in the majority of cases through careful consideration of the anatomy and gastric blood supply.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The management of colorectal peritoneal metastases continues to be a challenge but recent evidence suggests cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) can improve survival. Uncertainty about the relationship between age and tumour biology makes patient selection challenging particularly when reported procedure related morbidity is high and impact on survival outcomes unknown. The UK and Ireland Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases Registry was reviewed to assess the influence of age on efficacy of CRS and HIPEC. METHODS: A review of outcomes from the UK and Ireland Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases Registry was performed. Data from 2000 to 2021 were included from five centres in the UK and Ireland, and the cohort were sub-divided into three age groups; <45 years, 45-65 years and >65 years old. Primarily, we examined post-operative morbidity and survival outcomes across the three age groups. In addition, we examined the impact that the completeness of cytoreduction, nodal status, or adverse pathological features had on long-term survival. RESULTS: During the study period, 1138 CPM patients underwent CRS HIPEC. 202 patients(17.8%) were <45 years, 549 patients(48.2%) aged 45-65 years and 387 patients(34%) >65 years. Overall, median length of surgery (CRS and HIPEC), median PCI score and rate of HIPEC administration was similar in all three groups, as was overall rates of major morbidity and/or mortality. Complete cytoreduction rates (CC0) were similar across the three cohorts; 77%, 80.6% and 81%, respectively. Median overall survival for all patients was 38 months following complete cytoreduction. CONCLUSION: Age did not appear to influence morbidity or long-term survival following CRS and HIPEC. When complete cytoreduction is achieved survival outcomes are good. The addition of HIPEC can be performed safely and may reduce local recurrence within the peritoneum.

OBJECTIVE: To report our experience with the combination of radical surgical excision and intestinal transplantation in patients with recurrent pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) not amenable to further cytoreductive surgery (CRS). BACKGROUND: CRS and heated intraoperative peritoneal chemotherapy are effective treatments for many patients with PMP. In patients with extensive small bowel involvement or nonresectable recurrence, disease progression results in small bowel obstruction, nutritional failure, and fistulation, with resulting abdominal wall failure. METHODS: Between 2013 and 2022, patients with PMP who had a nutritional failure and were not suitable for further CRS underwent radical debulking and intestinal transplantation at our centre. RESULTS: Fifteen patients underwent radical exenteration of affected intra-abdominal organs and transplantation adapted according to the individual case. Eight patients had isolated small bowel transplantation and 7 patients underwent modified multivisceral transplantation. In addition, in 7 patients with significant abdominal wall tumor involvement, a full-thickness vascularized abdominal wall transplant was performed. Two of the 15 patients died within 90 days due to surgically related complications. Actuarial 1-year and 5-year patient survivals were 79% and 55%, respectively. The majority of the patients had significant improvement in quality of life after transplantation. Progression/recurrence of disease was detected in 91% of patients followed up for more than 6 months. CONCLUSION: Intestinal/multivisceral transplantation enables a more radical approach to the management of PMP than can be achieved with conventional surgical methods and is suitable for patients for whom there is no conventional surgical option. This complex surgical intervention requires the combined skills of both peritoneal malignancy and transplant teams.

BACKGROUND: The WHO classification of mucinous appendix neoplasms and pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) describes low- and high-grade histology and is of prognostic importance. The metastatic peritoneal disease grade can occasionally be different from the primary appendix tumor. This analysis aimed to report outcomes from a high-volume center in patients with pathological discordance. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of prospective data of patients treated by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for PMP at a single institution between January 2016 and December 2020. Reporting was by pathologists with a special interest in peritoneal malignancy. Discordant pathology was classified as a low-grade primary appendix tumor with high-grade peritoneal disease, or a high-grade primary appendix tumor with low-grade peritoneal disease. Outcomes analyzed were overall and recurrence-free survival, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves and the log-rank test were used to analyze the outcomes. RESULTS: Between 2016 and 2020, 830 patients underwent CRS and HIPEC for PMP, of whom 37 (4.4%) had discordant pathology. The primary appendix tumors were low-grade in 23 patients and high-grade in 14 patients. The median Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) was significantly higher in patients with a low-grade primary tumor (31 vs. 16; p = 0.001), while complete cytoreduction (CC0/1) was achieved in 31/37 (83.8%) patients. The median follow-up was 19 months. Overall survival was worse in those with high-grade peritoneal disease (p = 0.029), whereas recurrence-free survival was similar in both groups (p = 0.075). CONCLUSION: In PMP with pathological discordance, the peritoneal disease grade influences prognosis and survival.

BACKGROUND: The determination of the incidence and prevalence of rare diseases is important for economists and health-care providers. Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare, slow-growing abdominal cancer that represents a substantial burden on both patients and health-care systems. The incidence rate was previously approximated at 1-2 people per million per year; this incidence has never been challenged, and the prevalence has not been estimated. METHODS: Epidemiological data from Norway and England were obtained and analysed to calculate a minimum incidence rate based on the number of patients having a first surgical intervention for PMP. A novel method was then used to determine a prevalence rate for PMP, incorporating incidence, death, and cure rates in a multi-year analysis that accounted for the increasing population of Europe over a 10-year period. RESULTS: An incidence rate of 3.2 people per million per year was calculated, with a corresponding estimated prevalence rate of 22 people per million per year. By this calculation, 11,736 people in Europe were estimated to be living with PMP in 2018. CONCLUSION: Incidence and prevalence are essential tools for assessment of the financial and human cost of a disease. For rare diseases, such as PMP, the lack of accurate registries presents a particular challenge in determining such health-related statistical parameters. Based on our calculations, a significant number of people are living with PMP in Europe, underlining the need for appropriate resource allocation to ensure that adequate health-care measures are provided.

BACKGROUND: Epithelial appendiceal neoplasms are uncommon peritoneal malignancies causing a spectrum of disease including pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). The optimal management is cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Despite complete CRS (CCRS), recurrence develops in almost 45% of patients. No consensus exists for the optimal treatment of recurrent disease, with treatment strategies including repeat CRS, watch-and-wait, and palliative chemotherapy. This report aims to describe evolving management strategies for a large cohort with recurrence after CCRS. METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed a prospective database of patients with recurrence after CCRS for appendiceal neoplasms from 1994 to 2017 who had long-term follow-up evaluation with tumor markers and computed tomography (CT). RESULTS: Overall, 430 (37.6%) of 1145 PMP patients experienced recurrence at a median of 19 months. Of these 430 patients 145 (33.7%) underwent repeat CRS, 119 (27.7%) had a watch-and-wait approach, and 119 (27.7%) had palliative chemotherapy. The patients with recurrence had a median overall survival (OS) of 39 months, a 3-year survival of 74.6%, a 5-year survival of 57.4%, and a 10-year survival of 36.5%. In the multivariate analysis, the patients who had recurrence within 1 year after primary CRS (hazard ratio [HR], 3.55), symptoms at recurrence (HR, 3.08), a high grade of disease or adenocarcinoma pathology (HR, 2.94), signet ring cells (HR, 1.91), extraperitoneal metastatic disease (HR, 1.71), or male gender (HR, 1.61) had worse OS. The OS was longer for the patients who had repeat CRS (HR, 0.41). The patients who underwent repeat CCRS had a 3-year OS of 87.5%, a 5-year OS of 78.1%, and a 10-year OS of 67.9%. CONCLUSIONS: Dilemmas persist around the optimal management of patients with recurrence after CRS and HIPEC for appendiceal tumors. Selected patients benefit from repeat CRS, particularly those with favorable tumor biology and focal disease.

AIMS: Patients with abdominal cancer requiring major surgical intervention are at high risk of venous thromboembolic events (VTE), particularly pulmonary emboli (PE). A proportion of patients with cancer can present with, or have had, major VTEs prior to definitive surgical treatment. Preoperative percutaneous inferior venal caval filters (IVCF) may reduce the risk of PE. The aim of this study was to assess the indications, complications, retrieval rates, and long-term outcome of IVCFs in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of a prospective IVCF database between 2007 and 2018 of all patients with IVCF insertion prior to major abdominal surgery. The indications for an IVCF, procedural complications and surgical interventions were recorded. RESULTS: Overall, 111 patients had IVCF insertion. IVCF placement failed in one patient with gross abdominal disease. Indications for an IVCF were: prior PE in 65/111 (59%) and major vein thrombus in 42 (38%). Overall, 26/111 (23%) had the IVCF removed at a median of 91 days. In two patients IVCF removal failed. At follow-up of the 85 patients who had the IVCF left in situ, six developed filter-related thrombus and 13 a deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Four patients had a PE with an indwelling IVCF. CONCLUSION: Preoperative IVCF may reduce perioperative PE in patients at high risk of thrombosis undergoing major abdominal surgery where early anticoagulation is contraindicated. Long-term follow-up of retained IVCF suggests that major problems are infrequent, though further thrombosis may occur and long-term anticoagulation may be needed.

AIM: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for peritoneal malignancy has traditionally included umbilical excision with no published evidence on the incidence of umbilical involvement. The primary aim of this work was to determine the incidence of umbilical involvement in patients undergoing CRS for peritoneal malignancy of appendiceal origin. The secondary aim was to investigate the relationship of umbilical involvement with prior surgery affecting the umbilicus, such as diagnostic laparoscopy and midline laparotomy. METHOD: This study is from a national referral centre in the United Kingdom for appendiceal tumours and peritoneal malignancy. It is a retrospective analysis from a dedicated prospective database. We evaluated the most recent 200 consecutive patients who underwent CRS for peritoneal malignancy of appendiceal origin where all pathology specimens were reported by a recognized expert pathologist in appendiceal tumours and peritoneal malignancy. RESULTS: From June 2016 to September 2019, 200 consecutive patients had CRS and 178 had umbilical excision. Of these 54/178 (30.3%) had disease involving the umbilicus. The pathological findings in the 178 patients were low-grade mucinous carcinoma peritonei in 90/178 (50.6%), high-grade mucinous carcinoma peritonei in 31/178 (17.4%), metastatic appendiceal adenocarcinoma in 29/178 (16.4%) and diffuse acellular mucin in 28/178 (15.7%). Umbilical involvement was found in 25/90 (27.8%) with low-grade, 11/31 (35.5%) with high-grade, 8/29 (27.6%) with adenocarcinoma and 10/28 (35.7%) of patients with acellular mucin. In the 54 patients with umbilical disease, 30/54 (55.6%) had previous diagnostic surgery affecting the umbilicus. In the 124 patients without umbilical disease, 76/124 (61.2%) had prior surgery involving the umbilicus. The difference between the groups was not significant (p = 0.24). CONCLUSION: In patients with peritoneal malignancy of appendiceal origin, approximately 30% have umbilical involvement, irrespective of the primary appendiceal pathology. Umbilical involvement was not associated with prior surgery involving the umbilicus. This is the first report to document the incidence of umbilical pathology and supports consideration of routine umbilical excision in CRS for peritoneal malignancy.

BACKGROUND: Perforated epithelial appendiceal tumors are uncommon and can give rise to pseudomyxoma peritonei. Pseudomyxoma peritonei is rare, almost always of appendiceal origin, and presents in various ways relevant to abdominal surgeons. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to report the mode of presentation of pseudomyxoma peritonei of appendiceal origin in patients treated in a high-volume UK peritoneal malignancy center. DESIGN: A retrospective observational study was conducted. SETTINGS: This was a single-center study. PATIENTS: Retrospective analysis of a prospective database of consecutive patients undergoing surgery between March 1994 and December 2016 was performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Mode of presentation was classified into 7 categories: "histological diagnosis at abdominal surgery for presumed appendicitis," "probable pseudomyxoma peritonei" based on abnormality on cross-sectional imaging (± image-guided biopsy)," "abnormal imaging (other cause suspected) and operative finding of pseudomyxoma peritonei," "diagnostic laparoscopy," "ovarian mass," "new-onset hernia," and "miscellaneous." RESULTS: Overall, 1070 patients underwent surgery (female 61%, male 39%); median age was 57. The mode of presentation was abnormality on cross-sectional imaging in 324 of 1070 patients (30.3%), histological diagnosis at emergency surgery for presumed appendicitis in 203 of 1070 patients (19%), and abnormal imaging with eventual pseudomyxoma peritonei diagnosis in 180 of 1070 patients (16.8%); 124 of 651 women (19.2%) presented with an ovarian mass. New-onset hernia was the presenting feature in 9.9%; 83 of 1070 patients (7.7%) were diagnosed at diagnostic laparoscopy, and 32 of 1070 patients (3%) were described as "miscellaneous." Overall, 775 of 1070 patients (72.4%) had complete cytoreductive surgery with 10-year survival of 63.5%. LIMITATIONS: Results are limited by the retrospective nature of the study, radiological improvements over the study period, and the number of patients who had overlapping features at presentation. CONCLUSION: Perforated appendiceal tumors present in various ways but predominantly at cross-sectional imaging or coincidentally at laparoscopy or laparotomy. All abdominal surgeons will occasionally encounter cases, often unexpectedly, and recognition and referral to a specialized unit results in excellent outcomes in most cases.

MODO DE PRESENTACIÓN EN 1070 PACIENTES CON TUMORES EPITELIALES APENDICULARES PERFORADOS, PREDOMINANTEMENTE CON PSEUDOMIXOMA PERITONEAL: Los tumores epiteliales apendiculares perforados son poco frecuentes y pueden dar lugar a Pseudomyxoma peritonei. El pseudomixoma peritoneal es raro, casi siempre de origen apendicular, y se presenta de diversas formas relevantes para los cirujanos abdominales.El objetivo fue informar el modo de presentación del Pseudomixoma peritoneal de origen apendicular en pacientes tratados en un centro de malignidad peritoneal de alto volumen en el Reino Unido.Se realizó un estudio observacional retrospectivo.Este fue un estudio de centro único.Análisis retrospectivo de una base de datos prospectiva de pacientes consecutivos sometidos a cirugía entre marzo de 1994 y diciembre de 2016.El modo de presentación se clasificó en 7 categorías: "diagnóstico histológico en la cirugía abdominal por presunta apendicitis", "probable Pseudomixoma peritoneal" basado en la anormalidad en la imagen de corte transversal (biopsia guiada por imagen +/-), "imagen anormal (se sospecha otra causa) y hallazgo quirúrgico de Pseudomixoma peritoneal", "laparoscopia diagnostica", "masa ovarica", "hernia de reciente aparicion" y "varios".En total, 1070 pacientes fueron operados (mujeres 61%, hombres 39%); edad media 57. El modo de presentación fue anormalidad en la imágen transversal en 324/1070 (30.3%), el diagnóstico histológico en cirugía de emergencia por presunta apendicitis en 203/1070 (19%), la imágen anormal con eventual diagnóstico de Pseudomixoma peritoneal en 180 / 1070 (16.8%), 124/651 (19.2%) las mujeres presentaron una masa ovárica. La hernia de reciente aparición fue la característica de presentación en 9.9%, 83/1070 (7.7%) fueron diagnosticados por laparoscopia diagnóstica y 32/1070 (3%) "misceláneos". En general, 775/1070 (72,4%) se sometió a cirugía citorreductora completa con una supervivencia a 10 años del 63,5%.Una deficiencia es que los resultados están limitados por la naturaleza retrospectiva del estudio, las mejoras radiológicas a lo largo del período de estudio, y varios pacientes tenían características superpuestas en la presentación.Los tumores apendiculares perforados se presentan de varias maneras, pero predominantemente en imágenes transversales o casualmente en laparoscopia o laparotomía. Todos los cirujanos abdominales encontrarán ocasionalmente con casos, a menudo inesperados, y el reconocimiento y la derivación a una unidad especializada da lugar a excelentes resultados en la mayoría de los casos.

BACKGROUND: Complete cytoreductive surgery of macroscopic tumor is a potentially curative treatment for patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to determine the risk of microscopic tumor involvement of the greater omentum in patients with normal-looking omentum at the time of cytoreductive surgery for colorectal peritoneal metastases. DESIGN: This was a cohort study. SETTINGS: The prospective BIG-RENAPE database (NCT02823860) was analyzed. PATIENTS: All patients who underwent a complete cytoreductive surgery with greater omentectomy for colorectal peritoneal metastases at a single institution between January 2005 and December 2017 were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Data regarding involvement of the greater omentum were extracted from surgical and pathological records. RESULTS: Of 337 patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery for colorectal peritoneal metastases, 241 (71.51%) presented macroscopic omental invasion. Among the 96 patients who underwent a complete cytoreductive surgery with no macroscopic evidence of disease in the greater omentum during surgical exploration, 17 patients (17.70%) had microscopic evidence of tumor in the omentum. Patients with pathological evidence of omental tumor involvement were more likely to have a higher peritoneal cancer index (median 9 vs 4, p = 0.006). LIMITATIONS: No survival analysis could be provided regarding the impact of omentectomy. CONCLUSION: In patients with a normal-looking omentum during surgery for colorectal peritoneal metastases, microscopic tumor was present in 17%. Routine greater omentectomy should be considered in these patients to ensure complete cytoreduction.

Entre los 96 pacientes sometidos a cirugía citorreductora completa, sin evidencia macroscópica de enfermedad en el epiplón mayor, durante la exploración quirúrgica, 17 pacientes (17,70%) tuvieron en el epiplón, evidencia microscópica de tumor. Los pacientes con evidencia patológica de afectación del tumor omental, fueron más propensos a tener un índice de cáncer peritoneal más alto (mediana 9 frente a 4, p = 0,006).No se pudo obtener ningún análisis de supervivencia, sobre el impacto de la omentectomía.En pacientes con epiplón de aspecto normal, durante la cirugía por metástasis peritoneales colorrectales, estuvo presente el tumor microscópico, en el 17% de los casos. Se debe considerar una omentectomía mayor de rutina en estos pacientes, para asegurar una citorreducción completa.

Background: Complete cytoreduction is acknowledged to be an effective way to achieve macroscopic tumor clearance for a variety of tumors confined to the peritoneal cavity. Recent trials have shown that surgery respecting anatomical planes results in excellent outcomes and even the chance of cure for some from what was once thought to be life-limiting disease. Objective: To describe peritonectomy procedures in the current era. Method: A thorough and systematic method for cytoreductive surgery aimed at complete surgical resection of peritoneal metastases (PMs) was described. Results: The general principles of cytoreductive surgery were set out including preoperative preparation, patient positioning and incision. Strategies for assessing disease extent and planning surgical steps were outlined and established peritonectomy procedures such as Glisson's capsulectomy, omentectomy, left and right diaphragmatic peritonectomy, lesser omentectomy, stripping of the omental bursa, and pelvic peritonectomy were described. Novel techniques such as anterior pancreatic peritonectomy, small bowel mesenteric peritonectomy and cardiophrenic lymph node dissection were explained, and illustrated with accompanying video. Conclusion: Peritoneal metastases present a challenge to the surgeon which calls for a unique skill set if optimal outcomes are to be achieved. Attempts to standardize the surgical techniques described will allow further refinement as new technological advances occur.

AIM: The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and other inflammation-based scores have been used as a prognostic tool to predict survival in solid tumours including pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). The aim was to evaluate the prognostic value of this marker and risk stratify PMP patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS: Retrospective analysis was conducted of a prospectively collected database of patients with PMP who underwent CRS and HIPEC between 1994 and 2015. The NLR was calculated by dividing the pre-operative neutrophil count by lymphocyte count. Predicted overall survival (OS) and disease-free interval (DFI) were calculated using a Kaplan-Meier survival model. RESULTS: The study included 699 patients, stratified into four groups as defined by their NLR. Group A: 200 (28.6%) patients (NLR = 0.10-2.00), Group B: 160 (22.8%) patients (NLR = 2.10-2.78), Group C: 184 (26.3%) patients (NLR = 2.79-4.31) and Group D: 155 (22.2%) patients (NLR ≥ 4.32). The median follow-up for this cohort was 36 months. The predicted DFI was 132.2, 113.1, 84.4 and 47.9 months and the OS was 141.1, 117.6, 88.7 and 51.2 months for Groups A, B, C and D, respectively. As the NLR increases, there is a reduction in long-term survival. CONCLUSION: The pre-operative NLR is cost effective and has equivalent prognostic value to pre-operative tumour markers for patients with PMP treated with CRS and HIPEC. The NLR is a reliable tool that may have a role in predicting outcomes following CRS and HIPEC for patients with PMP of appendiceal origin.

INTRODUCTION: Radiological imaging often underestimates the extent of low volume peritoneal disease. The benefit of laparoscopy in assessing peritoneal metastases from colorectal and gastric cancer is accepted, but is inconclusive for appendiceal malignancy. We report our experience of diagnostic (DL) and therapeutic laparoscopy (TL) in patients with appendiceal tumours to determine indications and role in assessment and management. METHODS: A retrospective review of a National Peritoneal Malignancy Centre's prospectively maintained database was performed. All patients with appendiceal neoplasms who underwent DL or TL between September 2011 and January 2016 were included. The indications and outcomes of the laparoscopy, complications and interval to laparotomy were evaluated. RESULTS: Six hundred and eighty-five patients underwent surgery for appendiceal neoplasms during the study period, of which 73 (10.6%) underwent laparoscopy (50 DL, 23 TL). The main indications for DL were to clarify imaging and stage patients with high-risk histology. Indications for TL were an abnormal appendix without gross pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) or with low volume PMP, and concerns for fertility in the presence of PMP. DL resulted in 16 patients (32%) avoiding laparotomy because of extensive disease or no tumour found. Overall, 28 patients were assessed to have resectable disease and at laparotomy, 25/28 had complete cytoreduction with three patients unresectable. In the TL group, appendicectomy and peritoneal lavage was achieved in all four women with fertility concerns, allowing them to conceive thereafter. There were no complications. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with high-risk appendiceal neoplasm may benefit from DL, and potentially avoid unnecessary laparotomy. TL is useful in patients with low volume PMP and may aid fertility in selected patients.

BACKGROUND: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) benefits selected patients with peritoneal mesothelioma. We present the outcomes of this treatment strategy in a UK peritoneal malignancy national referral centre. METHODS: Observational retrospective analysis of data prospectively collected in a dedicated peritoneal malignancy database between March 1998 and January 2016. RESULTS: Of 1586 patients treated for peritoneal malignancy, 76 (4.8%) underwent surgery for peritoneal mesothelioma. Median age was 49 years (range 21-73 years). 34 patients (45%) were female. Of the 76 patients, 39 (51%) had low grade histological subtypes (mostly multicystic mesothelioma), and 37 (49%) had diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM; mostly epithelioid mesothelioma). Complete cytoreduction was achieved in 52 patients (68%) and maximal tumour debulking (MTD) was performed in 20 patients (26%); the remaining 4 patients (5%) underwent a laparotomy with biopsy only. HIPEC was administered in 67 patients (88%). Median overall (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) after CRS was 97.8 (80.2-115.4) and 58.8 (47.4-70.3) months, respectively. After complete cytoreduction, 100% overall survival was observed amongst patients with low-grade disease. Ki-67 proliferation index was significantly associated with survival outcomes after complete cytoreduction for DMPM and was an independent predictor of decreased survival. CONCLUSION: With adequate patient selection (guided by histological classification and Ki-67 proliferation index) and complete cytoreduction with HIPEC, satisfactory outcomes can be achieved in selected patients with peritoneal mesothelioma.

BACKGROUND: Ovarian metastases of GI tumors grow rapidly and are relatively resistant to systemic chemotherapy. They may be unilateral or bilateral and macroscopic or occult. The risk of macroscopic ovarian involvement or occult involvement of macroscopically normal ovaries is unquantified. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to quantify the risks of ovarian involvement in patients with peritoneal malignancy undergoing cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. DESIGN: This was a retrospective analysis of a dedicated prospective malignancy database. SETTINGS: This study was conducted at a high-volume tertiary referral center for peritoneal malignancy. PATIENTS: Female patients with at least 1 remaining ovary, undergoing complete cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for appendiceal tumors or colorectal peritoneal metastases between January 2010 and March 2015 were included. OUTCOME MEASURES: Data regarding ovarian involvement was extracted from surgical and histological records. RESULTS: Two hundred fifty-eight female patients with at least 1 ovary underwent complete cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy during the study period. In total, 141 of 258 (54.7%) patients had ovarian tumor involvement, and 80% with at least 1 macroscopically abnormal ovary had bilateral involvement. Of 40 patients with 1 macroscopic ovarian metastasis, microscopic involvement of the contralateral ovary was found in 18 of 40 (45.0%). Of 141 patients in whom both ovaries were macroscopically normal, 24 of 141 (17.0%) patients had microscopic ovarian involvement. LIMITATIONS: The retrospective nature limits the interpretation of these results. CONCLUSIONS: Occult malignancy was present in 17% when both ovaries looked macroscopically normal and in 45% of contralateral normal-looking ovaries if the other ovary was macroscopically involved. These results help to inform preoperative consent and intraoperative decision making in patients with advanced appendiceal and colorectal malignancy, and are of benefit in managing advanced lower GI tract malignancy.

BACKGROUND: Right hemicolectomy is routinely recommended in patients with histologic findings of high-grade appendix tumors after appendicectomy. Undetected peritoneal disease may be encountered at surgery. In high-grade appendix tumors with disease detected radiologically, complete cytoreduction may not be possible and outcomes poor. For these reasons, we adopted a policy of prophylactic cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to quantify the rates of peritoneal and nodal metastatic disease in patients with high-grade appendix tumors without obvious metastatic disease and to report the long-term outcomes of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in these patients. DESIGN: Data regarding peritoneal and nodal metastatic disease were extracted from surgical and histologic records. SETTINGS: The study was conducted at a high-volume tertiary referral center for peritoneal malignancy. PATIENTS: Patients referred with histologically high-grade appendix tumors at appendicectomy, without detectable metastatic spread, between January 1994 and September 2016 were included MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:: A total of 62 patients with high-grade pathology at appendicectomy, without clinical or radiological peritoneal disease, underwent complete cytoreduction with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. RESULTS: Thirty-five (57%) of 62 patients had peritoneal disease (median peritoneal cancer index 5 (range, 1-28)). Eleven (31%) of 35 had microscopic peritoneal disease. Overall, 23 (37%) of 62 had peritoneal disease beyond the confines of a standard right hemicolectomy. Nine (15%) of 62 had nodal involvement. Mean overall and disease-free survival were 110.9 (95% CI, 94.8-127.0 mo) and 102.1 months (95% CI, 84.3-119.9 mo), with 5-year overall and disease-free survival of 83.2% and 76.0%. LIMITATIONS: The retrospective nature limits the interpretation of these results. CONCLUSIONS: Complete cytoreduction was achieved in all of the patients, with excellent long-term survival. The incidence of peritoneal spread (57%) compared with nodal involvement (15%) supports cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy as definitive treatment rather than prophylaxis in patients with high-grade appendix tumors, even without radiologically detectable disease. High-grade appendix tumors benefit from early aggressive operative management to deal with potential peritoneal and nodal spread and should be considered for cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

AIM: The treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies ranges from palliative care to full cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy, HIPEC. Ongoing monitoring of patient recruitment and volume is usually carried out through dedicated registries. With multiple registries available worldwide, we sought to investigate the nature, extent and value of existing worldwide CRS and HIPEC registries. METHODS: A questionnaire was sent out to all known major treatment centres. The questionnaire covers: general purpose of the registry; inclusion criteria in the registry; the date the registry was first established; volume of patients in the registry and description of the data fields in the registries. Finally, the population size of the catchment area of the registry was collected. RESULTS: Twenty-seven questionnaires where returned. National databases are established in northwest European countries. There are five international general databases. Most database collect data on patients who have undergone an attempt to CRS and HIPEC. Two registries collect data on all patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis regardless the treatment. Most registries are primarily used for tracking outcomes and complications. When correlating the number of cases of CRS and HIPEC that are performed to the catchment area of the various registry, a large variation in the number of performed procedures related to the overall population was noted, ranging from 1.3 to 57 patients/million year with an average of 15 patients/1 million year. CONCLUSIONS: CRS and HIPEC is a well-established treatment for peritoneal surface malignancies worldwide. However, the coverage as well as the registration of treatment procedures differs widely. The most striking difference is the proportion of HIPEC procedures per capita which ranges from 1.3 to 57 patients per million. This suggests either a difference in patient selection, lack of access to HIPEC centres or lack of appropriate data collection.

BACKGROUND: Optimal outcomes in pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) require complete macroscopic tumor removal by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Partial or complete gastrectomy may be required with ongoing debate as to the risks and benefits of gastrectomy in what is often a low-grade malignancy. METHODS: Retrospective single-center analysis of 1014 patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC for PMP of appendiceal origin. Complications and survival were compared in patients who had gastrectomy versus the nongastrectomy cohort. RESULTS: Of 1014 patients, 747 (74 %) had CRS and HIPEC with complete cytoreduction. Overall, 86 (12 %) of 747 had partial (n = 80) or total (n = 6) gastrectomy. Median age was 55 years for gastrectomy patients and 56 for nongastrectomy patients (p = 0.591). Preoperative tumor markers [carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen (CA) 125 and CA19-9] were elevated more frequently in the gastrectomy group compared to the nongastrectomy group [81, 61 and 81 % compared to 41 % (p = 0.001), 20 % (p = 0.001) and 39 % (p = 0.001), respectively]. The proportion of high-grade histology was similar in the two groups (gastrectomy 19 % vs. nongastrectomy 18 %, p = 0.882). Postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo III-IV) were 31 % for the gastrectomy group and 13 % for the nongastrectomy group (p = 0.001). The 30-day postoperative mortality was 3 (0.5 %) of 661 for the nongastrectomy group and 1 (1.2 %) of 86 for the gastrectomy group (p = 0.387). Three- and 5-year overall survival were 96 and 88 % in the nongastrectomy group and 87 and 77 % in the gastrectomy group (p = 0.018). Three- and 5-year disease-free survival were 89 and 77 % in the nongastrectomy group versus 66 and 48 % in the gastrectomy group (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Gastrectomy is an essential component of complete cytoreduction in advanced PMP and was required in 12 % of patients with good long-term survival.
