Understanding Peritoneal Cancer

This website aims to provide a basic understanding of peritoneal cancers arising from different primary sites (ovaries, colon and rectum, stomach, appendix, small intestine) and the benefit of cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC in the treatment of these cancers to patients and their caregivers.

Gastrointestinal Cancers

Gastrointestinal cancers are cancers that arise from the digestive tract that includes the stomach, the esophagus, the appendix and the small and large intestines. Gastrointestinal cancers are the second most common cause of peritoneal cancer after ovarian cancer.

Peritoneal Cancer

The peritoneum is a thin membrane that lines the inner wall of the abdominal cavity. It is an organ just like other organs of the body (the lungs, the liver, the kidneys and the brain). Cancer spread to the peritoneum is called peritoneal cancer.

Gynaecological Cancers

Gynecological cancers are cancers that arise from a woman’s reproductive organs like the uterus, the ovaries and the fallopian tubes and the cervix. Ovarian and fallopian tube cancers are the most common source of peritoneal cancer.

Pseudomyxoma Peritonei, also known as PMP or jelly belly, is a rare condition characterized by the presence of mucin-producing tumours in the abdominal cavity. It can originate from any organ, but the most common source of PMP is appendiceal (appendix) cancer.

Pseudomyxoma Peritonei

After the removal of all the visible tumor from the abdominal cavity through Cytoreductive surgery, the microscopic tumor implants still persist in the abdominal cavity. HIPEC is performed to remove these tumor implants which are invisible to the naked eyes.

Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal
Chemotherapy (HIPEC)

PIPAC is a new method of giving intraperitoneal chemotherapy or chemotherapy directly into the abdominal cavity. A chemotherapy is given in the form of an aerosol or a 'spray' during laparoscopy in patients with advanced peritoneal cancer .

My mother’s health was deteriorating day by day because of a rare cancer, pseudomyxoma peritonei. Dr. Aditi advised us to opt for cytoreductive surgery and thanks to her my mother is now able to live a normal life.

When my mother was diagnosed with pseudomyxoma peritonei, no one offered any hope that she would be ok. Dr. Aditi performed Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC, because of which my mother is physically active and is slowly improving.
