Abstrakt: Simple Summary: This article stems from my research project on the role of Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) in the treatment of peritoneal carcinoma originating from colorectal cancer. Our aim was to assess the existing literature regarding the impact, benefits, and risks associated with PIPAC for patients. The results are encouraging and suggest that PIPAC is a safe option for patients. However, monitoring the progression of peritoneal carcinomatosis and evaluating the effects of PIPAC can be challenging. These findings reinforce the need for a randomized study to better define the role of PIPAC in treating colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis. By clarifying the implications of this innovative therapy, this research aims to provide valuable insights for clinicians, patients, and policymakers, ultimately enhancing patient care and treatment outcomes. Introduction: Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) consists of the administration of aerosolized chemotherapy into the abdominal cavity of patients suffering from peritoneal carcinomatosis. Our aim was to review the evidence supporting PIPAC in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer. Methods: A systematic review was performed in accordance with the 2020 PRISMA guideline. MEDLINE and CENTRAL were searched using combinations of terms including "Peritoneal carcinomatosis", "Peritoneal metastasis", "PIPAC", "Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy" and "Colorectal cancer". Original studies, in English, including patients treated with PIPAC for colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis, were considered eligible. Case reports, non-English or French language articles and secondary analyses were excluded. Results: A total of 385 articles were screened and 374 articles were excluded, leaving 11 publications for inclusion in the qualitative analysis. The included studies totalized 949 patients who received PIPAC for peritoneal carcinomatosis due to colorectal cancer. The median peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) ranged from 10 to 31. In all studies, the complete PIPAC protocol was achieved with an average of two to three 3 PIPAC sessions per patient. Oxaliplatin (OX) was used as a chemotherapeutic agent in all studies and could be associated with intravenous 5-FU and leucovorin. Most post-operative adverse events were recorded as mild to moderate with no intraoperative complications. Only four studies reported a decrease in the average PCI score for 50% of the patients. Median overall survival ranged from 8 to 37.8 months. Quality of life indicators were stable between PIPAC-OX cycles with a small but not statistically significant trend of improvement of most functional scales. Conclusions: PIPAC for peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal origin is feasible, safe and tolerable. Its impact on survival outcomes or quality of life remains to be demonstrated by randomized trials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
