Histological tumor response predicts clinical outcome in patients with colorectal peritoneal metastasis treated with preoperative chemotherapy followed by cytoreduction and HIPEC
Abstract
Up to one quarter of the patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) develop peritoneal carcinomatosis (PM). The aims of this retrospective study were to characterize the histological response of the PM of CRC to preoperative chemotherapy and evaluate the potential prognostic value, in terms of survival.
