Boldrin V, Khaled C, El Asmar A, Kamden L, Sclafani F, Gomez MG, Moreau M, Vouche M, Liberale G. Predictive factors of non-completion of cytoreductive surgery in colorectal peritoneal metastasis. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2024; 50:107251. [PMID: 38096699 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2023.107251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is the only potentially curative treatment that can improve the survival prognosis for patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM) of colorectal origin. The main independent prognostic factors are extent of disease, as measured by the Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI), and completion of CRS (CC-0 or R1). Despite thorough preoperative work-up for selection of surgical candidates, 20%-25 % of CRS procedures are stopped after exploration during laparotomy. These patients undergo "open-and-close" procedures associated with a risk of complications and without any benefit. The aim of this study was to identify preoperative predictors of non-resectability and/or non-completion of CRS in patients with colorectal PMs who were candidates for surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective, monocentric study including patients admitted for CRS ± HIPEC at the Jules Bordet Institute between January 01, 2010 and December 31, 2021. The preoperative epidemiological, pathological, clinical, radiological, and biological features of patients with unresectable disease were compared with those of patients treated with CRS. RESULTS One hundred nineteen patients were included, 60 men and 59 women (median age 61 years). Twenty-one CRS procedures (17.65 %) were stopped during exploratory laparotomy. Statistically significant factors associated with non-completion were age (p = 0.0183), PCI (p = 0.0001), presence of sub/occlusive episode(s) prior to CRS (p = 0.0012), and multifocal-diffuse uptakes on PET-scan (p = 0.0017). CONCLUSION Almost 18 % of patients had an "open-and-close" procedure. PCI was the major determinant of non-completion of CRS. Other predictive factors of unresectability of colorectal PM were age, the presence of sub/occlusive episodes, and PET/CT with multiple peritoneal uptakes.

Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:284. [PMID: 38254775 PMCID: PMC10813964 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16020284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Peritoneal metastases (PM) are observed in approximately 8% of patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer, either synchronously or metachronously during follow-up. PM often manifests as the sole site of metastasis. PM is associated with a poor prognosis and typically shows resistance to systemic chemotherapy. Consequently, there has been a search for alternative treatment strategies. This review focuses on the global evolution of the combined approach involving cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the management of PM. It encompasses accepted clinical guidelines, principles for patient selection, surgical and physiological considerations, biomarkers, pharmacological protocols, and treatment outcomes. Additionally, it integrates the relevant literature and findings from previous studies. The role of CRS and HIPEC, in conjunction with other therapies such as neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy, is discussed, along with the management of patients presenting with oligometastatic disease. Furthermore, potential avenues for future development in this field are explored.

Abstract
Introducción. La laparoscopía de estadificación permite identificar con gran precisión el compromiso locorregional avanzado y metastásico a peritoneo en los pacientes con cáncer gástrico. Las guías internacionales aún difieren en las indicaciones para incluir este procedimiento como parte del proceso de estadificación.
Métodos. Se diseñó una encuesta dirigida a cirujanos residentes en Colombia, sobre el uso de la laparoscopía de estadificación en los pacientes con cáncer gástrico. Se analizaron los resultados y con base en la evidencia disponible se proponen algunas pautas en las indicaciones y técnica del procedimiento.
Resultados. Respondieron la encuesta 74 cirujanos; el 43,8 % considera que el objetivo de la laparoscopía de estadificación es descartar la carcinomatosis peritoneal. El 54,1 % realiza el procedimiento en estadios tempranos, sin embargo, el 48,6 % considera realizarla solo en pacientes con sospecha de carcinomatosis por imágenes. Las áreas evaluadas con mayor frecuencia por los cirujanos (más del 85 %) son la superficie hepática, las cúpulas diafragmáticas, los recesos parietocólicos y la pelvis. Las zonas evaluadas en menor frecuencia son la válvula ileocecal (40,5 %) y el ligamento de Treitz (39 %). El 33 % de los cirujanos no toma rutinariamente citología peritoneal.
Conclusión. Este trabajo muestra la tendencia de los cirujanos en el uso de la laparoscopía de estadificación en pacientes con cáncer gástrico. A pesar de encontrar resultados muy positivos en relación con las indicaciones y técnica del procedimiento, es necesario analizar la evidencia disponible para su uso según cada escenario y mejorar la sistematización del procedimiento.

Abstract
Introducción. Las metástasis peritoneales representan un estado avanzado de muchos cánceres intraabdominales y suelen dar un pronóstico ominoso a los pacientes que las desarrollan. Hasta hace poco la única opción terapéutica para este escenario era la quimioterapia paliativa. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los tumores metastásicos al peritoneo continúan siendo relativamente resistentes a las drogas citotóxicas y citostáticas administradas por vía endovenosa y, en general, a las terapias individuales.
Métodos. Se realizó una búsqueda de la literatura en las bases de datos de PubMed, SciELO y Google Scholar utilizando las palabras claves: laparoscopia, carcinomatosis peritoneal, estadificación, citorreducción. Se incluyeron para la revisión los artículos con mayor relevancia publicados en inglés y español.
Discusión. La cirugía citorreductiva asociada a técnicas de quimioterapia hipertérmica intraperitoneal se ofrece actualmente a pacientes con indicaciones precisas según el primario subyacente. Es aquí donde la laparoscopia de estadificación realizada de manera correcta y completa juega un papel determinante, puesto que ha demostrado ser un método fiable para realizar una aproximación del compromiso peritoneal.
Conclusión. Todos los especialistas quirúrgicos, en especial los cirujanos generales, deben estar familiarizados en cómo realizar de forma completa una laparoscopia de estadificación, de manera que se pueda hacer una mejor aproximación al grado de compromiso peritoneal, contribuyendo en el manejo integral oncológico del paciente.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a potentially curative treatment for patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases (CRPM). Patient selection is key to optimizing outcomes after CRS/HIPEC. The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic value of ascites diagnosed on preoperative imaging.
Methods
A prospective database of patients eligible for CRS/HIPEC between 2010 and 2020 was retrospectively analyzed. The presence of ascites, postoperative complications, overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and completeness of cytoreduction were assessed. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify independent predictors for outcome.
Results
Of the 235 included patients, 177 (75%) underwent CRS/HIPEC while 58 (25%) were not eligible for CRS/HIPEC. In 42 of the 177 patients (24%) who underwent CRS/HIPEC, ascites was present on preoperative computed tomography (CT) imaging. Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) score was significantly higher in patients with preoperative ascites compared with patients without (11 [range 2–30] vs. 9 [range 0–28], respectively; p = 0.011) and complete cytoreduction was more often achieved in patients without ascites (96.3% vs. 85.7%; p = 0.007). There was no significant difference in median DFS and OS after CRS/HIPEC between patients with and without ascites {10 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 7.1–12.9) vs. 9 months (95% CI 7.2–10.8), and 25 months (95% 9.4–40.6) vs. 27 months (95% CI 22.4–31.6), respectively}.
Conclusions
Ascites on preoperative imaging was not associated with worse survival in CRS/HIPEC patients with CRPM. Therefore, excluding patients from CRS/HIPEC based merely on the presence of ascites is not advisable.

Limitations of laparoscopy to assess the peritoneal cancer index and eligibility for cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC in peritoneal metastasis. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2022; 407:1667-1675.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to determine the value of laparoscopy to assess the intra-abdominal tumor extent and predict complete cytoreduction. METHODS All patients at our department in the period from 2017 to 2021 that underwent laparoscopy to assess peritoneal metastasis and subsequent open exploration with the intention to perform cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with HIPEC were retrospectively identified in a continuously maintained database. RESULTS Forty-three patients were analyzed. Peritoneal cancer index (PCI) determination by laparoscopy compared to open surgery was overestimated in five patients (11.6%), identical in eleven patients (25.6%), and underestimated in 27 patients (62.8%). PCI differences were independent of surgeons, tumor entities, and prior chemotherapy. Thirty-four patients (79.1%) were determined eligible for CRS with HIPEC during open exploration, whereas nine patients (20.9%) underwent a non-therapeutic laparotomy. Complete or almost complete cytoreduction was achieved in 33 patients (76.7%). In one patient, completeness of cytoreduction was not documented. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate a moderate agreement according to weighted Cohen's kappa analysis of PCI values calculated during laparoscopy and subsequent open exploration for CRS with HIPEC. Uncertainty of PCI assessment should therefore be kept in mind when performing laparoscopy in patients with peritoneal metastasis.

Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), often combined with systemic therapy, can be offered to selected colorectal peritoneal metastases (PM) patients. However, clinical heterogeneity and the lack of high-level evidence challenges determination of the correct treatment strategy. This review aims to provide an overview of current strategies to predict survival of colorectal PM patients treated with CRS and HIPEC, guiding clinicians to select a suitable treatment-strategy and to inform patients about their prognosis. First, the prognostic relevance of several clinicopathological prognostic factors, such as extent of PM, location of primary tumor, histology type, and the presence of lymph node or liver metastases will be discussed. Subsequently, special attention will be given to recent developments in several aspects of tumor biology such as RAF/RAS mutations, circulating tumor DNA, immunoprofiling, and consensus molecular subtypes. Finally, currently available prognostic models to predict survival will be evaluated, concluding these models perform moderate to good, but most of them partly rely on intra-operative data. New insights in tumor biology, as well as the reliable assessment of extent of peritoneal disease by diffusion weighted MRI pose promising opportunities to establish an adequate and clinically meaningful preoperative prognostic model in the near future.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peritoneal metastases confer the worst survival amongst all sites of metastatic colorectal cancer. The adoption of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has become an option for patients with isolated colorectal peritoneal metastases (CRPM). The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes following CRS and HIPEC for CRPM from published high volume cohort studies and to highlight the latest controversies and future directions of CRPM treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review was performed on published studies on the treatment outcomes of CRS and HIPEC for colorectal peritoneal metastases. RESULTS Twenty studies met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review. The median survival for all patients ranged from 14.6 to 60.1 months. The 5-year overall survival ranged from 23.4% to 52%. For patients with complete cytoreduction, the median survival was 25 to 49 months. Major morbidity and mortality ranged from 15.1% to 47.2% and 0% to 4.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION CRS and HIPEC for the treatment of CRPM is safe and current evidence suggests it improves both median and disease-free survival. However, the efficacy of intraperitoneal chemotherapy, in particular oxaliplatin, has recently come under scrutiny. Accordingly, higher quality evidence is urgently required to contribute to multidisciplinary and international consensus on CRPM treatment strategies.
