Surgical treatment for locally advanced digestive cancers (invasion beyond the serosa, adjacent structures penetration and perforated tumors) is followed by a high rate of peritoneal recurrence and distant metastasis. Simultaneous intraperitoneal chemotherapy with surgical resection, which is continued over the early postoperative period act on the tumor cells which can be mobilized during the surgical dissection. This adjuvant treatment could lead to better control of local recurrence. Moreover, high levels of the agents are reached in the portal circulation which could be profitable for preventing hepatic metastasis. The main drawback of the method is represented by the impaired immunologic activity of the peritoneum, which can cause, at least theoretically, detrimental complications.The efficiency of the intraoperative and early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy is the subject of a prospective randomized study, started 8 months ago in our department.Patients with locally advanced (penetration of the tumor beyond serosal layer, without liver metastasis) are randomized for adjuvant intraperitoneal chemotherapy or standard treatment. Intraoperative chemotherapy is commenced after surgical resection but before accomplishing any anastomosis. We use 50 mg of cisplatinum for washing the peritoneal cavity and continue to instill 20 mg/m2 of cisplatinum intraperitoneally in the first four days after surgery. (8 patients were selected to be treated according to this protocol).Immediate postoperative outcome does not seem to be influenced by this treatment. The disease free interval and the overall survival rates can not be assessed at this moment of the study. |
