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 (pe
We designed a model of peritoneal dissemination of gastric cancer in mice. B16 melanoma cells were injected into the peritoneal cavity of C57 BL mice, the object being to search for an effective treatment for peritoneal dissemination, using hyperthermia combined with cisplatin. Following the intrap
We performed continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfnsion (CHPP) or continuous normothermic peritoneal perfusion (CNPP) combined with cisplatin (CDDP) 300 mg/kg and mitomycin C (MMC) 30 mg/kg in an attempt to prevent peritoneal recurrence after surgery for gastric cancer. Twenty-two patients were tr
