Surgery in Multimodal Treatment of Cancer: Peritoneal Carcinomatosis

  • Chapter
Book cover Surgery in Multimodal Management of Solid Tumors

Abstract

Until recent years a diagnosis of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from intra-abdominal solid tumors carried a uniformly fatal prognosis, often within weeks or months. Since the 1980s, following the intuition of an American surgeon, Paul Sugarbaker, combined treatment modalities of PC have developed considerably. Since the first pioneering approaches on the treatment of “pseudomyxoma peritonei”
