- Introduction: Early post-operative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) can be used after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with resectable peritoneal metastases (PM). Whether EPIC adds any benefit is debatable.Methods: We performed a retrospective case-control analysis of patients with PM of appendiceal origin treated by CRS + HIPEC +/- EPIC at Uppsala University Hospital between 2004 and 2012. The 206 patients were divided into two groups depending on if they received EPIC or not. The two groups were propensity-matched with a 1:1 ratio. The patients in the EPIC group were mostly operated in the first three years of the unit's experience.Results: After matching, 76 patients were left in each group. The groups were similar, except for the proportion of histological subtypes (p = 0.021) and chemotherapy agents used for HIPEC (0.017). Survival outcomes were stratified by histology. The patients who received EPIC had a longer hospital and ICU length of stay (15.71 vs 14.28 days, p = 0.049), (1.45 vs 1.05 days, p = 0.002), respectively. Post-operative complications were similar in both groups. Overall Survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) did not differ for the patients with low-grade histology. The patients with high-grade tumors who received EPIC had a significantly worse OS (p = 0.0088) while having the same RFS as the patients who did not receive EPIC.Conclusion: Our results suggest there is no benefit of EPIC in patients with advanced appendiceal tumors while increasing hospital and ICU length of stays. A suboptimal group matching might influence our results. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd, BASO similar to The Association for Cancer Surgery, and the European Society of Surgical Oncology. All rights reserved.
