Core Tip |
The standard treatment for advanced ovarian cancer consists in complete cytoreductive surgery and intravenous combination chemotherapy with a platinum compound and a taxane. Although response rates to initial therapy are high, many patients will recur and die of peritoneal carcinomatosis. The addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to the standard therapy aims at increasing survival by reducing peritoneal recurrence. In this review we discuss the time points where HIPEC can be proposed. |
