Well differentiated papillary peritoneal mesothelioma treated by cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy-the experience of the PSOGI registry

摘要

Background: Well differentiated papillary peritoneal mesothelioma (WDPPM) is a rare variant of mesothelioma which affects mainly women in the reproductive age. The disease may present multifocally and recur after primary resection. Our aim was to describe the outcomes of cytoreduction (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in this disease.
