Proposta de padronização da Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Oncológica para procedimentos de citorredução cirúrgica e quimioterapia intraperitoneal hipertérmica no Brasil: Pseudomixoma peritoneal, tumores do apêndice cecal e mesotelioma peritoneal maligno

ABSTRACT Cytoreductive surgery plus hypertermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has emerged as a major comprehensive treatment of peritoneal malignancies and is currently the standard of care for appendiceal epithelial neoplasms and pseudomyxoma peritonei syndrome as well as malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. Unfortunately, there are some worldwide variations of the cytoreductive surgery and hypertermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy techniques since no single technique has so far demonstrated its superiority over the others. Therefore, standardization of practices might enhance better comparisons between outcomes. In these settings, the Brazilian Society of Surgical On-cology considered it important to present a proposal for standardizing cytoreductive surgery plus hypertermic intraperitoneal chemother-apy procedures in Brazil, with a special focus on producing homogeneous data for the developing Brazilian register for peritoneal surface malignancies.
