Surgical complications from CRS and HIPEC in cancer patients

A narrative review assessed complications linked to cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients battling peritoneal metastasis. It cataloged categories of complications, including surgical, chemotherapy-related, and systemic issues, emphasizing the high morbidity associated with these interventions. The findings advocate for stringent patient selection, precise surgical techniques, and robust intraoperative care. Interdisciplinary collaboration is highlighted as essential to enhance safety and tailor treatment approaches, guiding future clinical practices in managing colorectal cancer metastases effectively.
