DOI: 10.1007/s00595-020-02180-7
Abstract: The prognosis of peritoneal carcinomatosis is poor. However, the emergence of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS + HIPEC) as a treatment option has prolonged survival and it can even potentially cure patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/a-0657-3764
Abstract: BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis can influence clinical outcomes of patients receiving self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) for malignant colorectal obstruction, but data regarding this issue are sparse. We analyzed the clinical outcomes of post-SEMS insertion for malignant… read more here.
