Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an innovative therapeutic technique that combines surgery and chemotherapy specifically designed for peritoneal carcinomatosis. After surgery, a heated solution of highly concentrated anticancer drugs is injected directly into the abdomen.
HIPEC eliminates residual cancer cells that are inaccessible to systemic treatments. By concentrating chemotherapeutic agents directly at the site of disease, HIPEC optimizes treatment efficacy while reducing side effects.
