| مستخلص: |
The management of peritoneal metastases from gastric cancer origin has evolved considerably over the last three decades with the establishment of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) as efficacious therapies in carefully selected patients. Other approaches such as the use of prophylactic/adjuvant HIPEC in patients who are considered high-risk and those with positive peritoneal cytology will benefit from additional data before being adopted into routine clinical practice. Lastly, there are new and emerging intraperitoneal chemotherapy techniques such as early post-operative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) for residual microscopic disease, and pressurized intraperitoneal aerosolized chemotherapy (PIPAC) for patients with advanced unresectable peritoneal carcinomatosis, which are currently under evaluation in clinical trials. The following review outlines the natural history of gastric cancer, currently available neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies for resectable disease, and existing evidence supporting various approaches to CRS and intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
