Popis: Objective To investigate the benefit of cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the treatment of endometrial peritoneal carcinomatosis. Study design Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative data were collected prospectively for 13 patients treated in our University hospital. Results Of the thirteen patients treated, one patient was lost to follow up. Three patients died within the first twelve months of treatment, and two patients died at respectively 12.4 and 19.4 months after the HIPEC procedure. Seven patients are alive, four of them without recurrence, between 1.5 and 124.8 months after surgery. The Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) and the Completeness of Cytoreduction-Score (CC-S) are prognostic factors for survival after HIPEC treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis of endometrial origin. Conclusions The significant survival time in selected patients should lead to a study of the management of peritoneal carcinomatosis of endometrial origin in a larger number of cases, and justifies a clinical trial on a larger scale.
