Malignant ascites is a debilitating condition affecting cancer patients in their terminal stage of disease. Recently, laparoscopic hyperthermic intraperitoneal peroperative chemotherapy (HIPEC) was introduced as a new approach. From September 2001 to August 2008, 52 patients were treated with this new modality. No treatment-related mortality was observed. Median survival was 98 days. One patient developed a clinical recurrence. Laparoscopic HIPEC is a safe and effective method for palliating malignant ascites.
恶性腹水是一种使处于疾病终末期的癌症患者身体衰弱的病症。最近,腹腔镜术中热灌注化疗(HIPEC)作为一种新方法被引入。从2001年9月至2008年8月,52例患者接受了这种新治疗方式。未观察到与治疗相关的死亡病例。中位生存期为98天。1例患者出现临床复发。腹腔镜HIPEC是缓解恶性腹水的一种安全有效的方法。
