✦ Synopsis

Peritoneal carcinosis represents an extremely negative prognostic factor and, in a large number of cases, is rapidly lethal [1,2]. In the literature, a method that appears to be particularly effective in the treatment of this pathology consists of the cytoreduction of all visceral and peritoneal (peritonectomy) macroscopic lesions associated with hyperthermic-antiblastic peritoneal perfusion (HAPP) [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18].

The first perfusion technique was executed making use of a closed method, which includes the suture of the entire laparotomy before starting perfusion. It has the advantage of being quick to perform, but there are several disadvantages:

## BACKGROUND. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), hyperthermia, and cisplatin have synergistic cytotoxicity against cancer cells in vitro. This combination may be well suited to the regional treatment of peritoneal tumor spread in patients. Continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) is a techni

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Because of scarce data from larger series and nonhomogeneous selection criteria, further information is needed on peritonectomy with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in managing patients with ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis. ## METHODS. In an open, p
