“…An interesting development over the past decade in the management of recurrent pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is modified multivisceral transplantation. Reddy and colleagues asserted that recurrent PMP inevitably progresses to nutritional failure as a result of small bowel obstruction and fistulation, and proposed that, for patients with end‐stage PMP, CRS followed by modified multivisceral transplantation could prolong life. They reported on six patients who had this treatment between 2013 and 2016; four survived at review of 2, 4, 18 and 22 months after surgery, and two had died (on days 26 and 64).…”

“…However, opportunity for these transplants in Australia remains limited, and data surrounding intestine transplant lags behind other transplants [ 5 ]. Early studies have shown that multi-visceral transplantation including small bowel is feasible in appendiceal adenomucinosis patients, and provides notable improvements in survival and quality of life [ 6 , 7 ]. These findings are consistent with broader studies supporting small bowel transplant as a means to wean patients off TPN and tube feeding, and thus potentially avoid the complications presented in this case [ 8 , 9 ].…”

“…HPN can provide long-term nutritional support for a median of 338 days (71–2198) in patients with low- and high-grade PMP [ 34 ], but it is not able to palliate obstruction symptoms and abdominal wall entero-cutaneous fistulas. In these cases, salvage cytoreductive surgery followed by small bowel/multivisceral transplant (SBMT) has been tested [ 35 , 36 ]. In a recent review, out of the eight patients treated with SBMT, three died in the post-operative period for intestinal fistula and graft versus host disease (GVHD), without rejection of the intestine.…”
