Diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma: Systematic review of clinical management and biological research

Abstract: Diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM) is an uncommon and locally aggressive tumor with poor prognosis. Currently, no standard therapy is available. The biology of this disease is still poorly understood. We performed a systematic search of relevant studies on clinical management and biological research of DMPM. Trials were selected using a predetermined protocol. The current evidence suggests that cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (PIC) results in improved su… Show more

“…All patients received crystalloids, colloids, and fresh frozen plasma (mean, 4.8; range, 2-12) during the operation, whereas 27 patients were transfused with red blood cells (mean, 2.8; range, [1][2][3][4][5][6]. No serious intraoperative complications during HIPEC were recorded.…”

“…[1][2][3] It is a complex procedure that includes abdominal and pelvic peritonectomies with combined organ resections in order to eradicate all macroscopic disease, and then perfusion of the abdominal cavity with heated chemotherapeutic agents, in an effort to eradicate all microscopic residual disease. 4 The indications of the method continue to expand because favorable 5-year survival rates were observed in low-grade malignancies, such as peritoneal adenomucinosis.…”

“…Historically, patients treated with palliative surgery with or without chemotherapy experienced a median os of approximately 1 year 35,36 . With novel systemic chemotherapy regimens consisting of a combination of pemetrexed and platinum compounds or gemcitabine, the median os has reached 8.7-26.7months 37,38 .…”

“…DMPM is ultimately fatal although advances have been made in therapeutic strategies for surgically resectable disease. The combination of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with cisplatin plus doxorubicin or mitomycin-C has been shown to improve overall survival (Baratti et al, 2011;Turner et al, 2012). Patients with inoperable DMPM may undergo systemic chemotherapy with cisplatin and pemetrexed and/or palliation surgery.…”
