Peritonectomy and HIPEC Treatment in Baner, Pune

What Is Peritonectomy and HIPEC?

🔹 Peritonectomy Surgery

Peritonectomy involves the surgical removal of visible cancer deposits from the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity). This step aims to achieve maximum cytoreduction, meaning removal of all detectable tumors.

🔹 HIPEC Therapy

Immediately after tumor removal, heated chemotherapy is circulated inside the abdomen for 60–90 minutes. The heat enhances the effectiveness of chemotherapy while minimizing systemic side effects.

✔ Targets microscopic cancer cells
✔ Delivers high-dose chemotherapy locally
✔ Reduces damage to healthy organs

Conditions Treated with HIPEC

Peritonectomy and HIPEC are commonly used for:

• Ovarian cancer with peritoneal spread

• Colorectal cancer with peritoneal metastasis

• Appendiceal cancer (pseudomyxoma peritonei)

• Gastric (stomach) cancer with limited peritoneal disease

• Selected cases of mesothelioma

(Patient selection is critical and based on detailed evaluation)
