Article Abstract

Objective: To study outcomes after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) in patients also treated for colorectal liver metastases (CLM).

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) frequently metastasizes to the liver and peritoneum and is associated with a poor prognosis. In selected patients, a benefit in overall survival (OS) was shown for both peritoneal metastases (PM-CRC) offered CRS-HIPEC, and CLM treated with surgical resection. However, the presence of CLM was considered a relative contraindication to CRS-HIPEC, causing a paucity of outcome data in this patient group.

Methods: Patients with PM-CRC having CRS-HIPEC at a single national center between 2007 and 2023, with additional intervention for CLM, were included (previous curative treatment for extraperitoneal and extrahepatic metastases was allowed). Three groups were defined: CLM before CRS-HIPEC (pre-CRS-HIPEC), CLM resected simultaneously with CRS-HIPEC (sim-CRS-HIPEC), and CLM after CRS-HIPEC (post-CRS-HIPEC), aiming to retrospectively analyze outcomes.

Results: Fifty-seven patients were included and classified as: pre-CRS-HIPEC (n = 11), sim-CRS-HIPEC (n = 29), and post-CRS-HIPEC (n = 17). Median Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) was 8; 13 patients had severe complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥3), and no 90-day mortality. Median OS was 48 months after CRS-HIPEC. PCI was a predictor of OS (hazard ratio: 1.11, P < 0.001). We observed no difference in short or long-term outcomes between intervention groups.

Discussion: This study demonstrated that patients with CLM having CRS-HIPEC had comparable OS to reports on CRS-HIPEC only, likely explained by a low PCI. Simultaneous CLM resection did not increase the risk of severe complications.

Conclusions: In this national cohort, CRS-HIPEC and CLM intervention offers long-term survival, suggesting that this treatment may be offered to selected patients with PM-CRC and CLM.

Purpose: Metastasectomy is accepted as standard of care for selected patients with colorectal pulmonary metastases (CLM); however, the role of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM) is not universally accepted. We aim to compare oncological outcomes of patients with CLM and CPM after pulmonary resection and CRS-HIPEC, respectively, by comparing overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS).

Methods: A retrospective review of 49 CLM patients who underwent pulmonary resection, and 52 CPM patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC in a single institution from January 2003 to March 2015, was performed.
