Excerpt

Peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer origin has been considered a terminal stage of the disease, with poor prognosis. Nowadays, treatment with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for these patients is under discussion, but the few studies published show promising results.1,2 Despite this, the oncologic results of CRS and HIPEC in gastric cancer have not been as spectacular as in other indications, with substantial morbidity, so that few oncologic groups indicate CRS and HIPEC in gastric cancer. We wanted to know the real state of Spanish patients and, in particular, identify the subgroup of patients who can obtain the best results.3
