Article Synopsis
- - This national survey aimed to assess the use of liver hypertrophy techniques in Italy, focusing on trends and differences among various medical centers.
- - In December 2022, 46 centers completed a detailed online questionnaire, revealing that hypertrophy techniques were used in 6.2% of liver resections, with PVE and ALPPS being the most common techniques employed.
- - The findings indicated that while these techniques play a crucial role in increasing resectability, there is substantial inconsistency in how centers define the need for them and the protocols used for patient allocation.
Objectives: The aim of this retrospective study is to assess the incidence of morbidity and mortality related to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and to evaluate their predictors, in patients with peritoneal metastasis of ovarian origin.
Methods: A retrospective multicenter study was carried out investigating results from eight Italian institutions. A total of 276 patients met inclusion criteria.
Sustained hypotension impairs perfusion, causing permanent organ damage, neurologic deficit, and cardiac arrest. Emerging evidence suggests that noncardiac anesthesia providers can use echocardiography to manage refractory hypotension. Echocardiographic findings may reveal the underlying pathology of hemodynamic compromise and can guide the selection of appropriate resuscitative measures.

A retrospective multi-institutional study from seven Italian Centers was performed. One hundred and seventy-two patients, submitted to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to treat carcinomatosis of colorectal origin, were recorded.
