Objective: Complete surgical cytoreduction is the most important prognostic factor of survival in patients with peritoneal metastases from various cancers, including ovarian cancer. In order to achieve the optimum result, surgeons use extensive procedures that involve peritonectomies and multivisceral resections. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) aims to eliminate all macroscopic disease by achieving complete cytoreduction. This article describes a surgical approach designed to achieve total extraperitoneal access for parietal peritonectomy.
Study Design: Visceral resections and parietal peritonectomy procedures must be conducted for complete removal of all visible malignancy. This article presents a technique that combines existing surgical approaches (anterolateral parietal peritonectomy, complete pelvic peritonectomy with sleeve resection of the sigmoid colon, and right and left upper quadrant peritonectomies) to achieve access to the upper abdomen, the lateral abdomen and the pelvis while keeping the peritoneum intact.
Results And Conclusion: This approach facilitates the peritonectomies necessary for complete cytoreduction, and improves access to difficult sites such as the pelvis and the subdiaphragmatic areas in a standardized manner that can be reproduced safely by an experienced surgical team.

Background: Patients diagnosed with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) of appendiceal origin typically present with high tumor burden and require extensive cytoreductive surgery (CRS) to achieve optimal cytoreduction. This study describes an en bloc "rolled-up carpet" surgical technique for total parietal peritonectomy and multivisceral resection while also analyzing the perioperative and tumor outcomes of this technique.
Methods: The study reviewed the data of 7 patients underwent en bloc "rolled-up carpet" extensive CRS between August 2020 and April 2023.
Current peritonectomy practice during debulking surgery in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer: a Korean Gynecologic Oncology Group Study (KGOG 4004).

Article Synopsis
- A nationwide survey in Korea was conducted to investigate the practices of gynecologic oncologists regarding peritonectomy techniques (total vs. selective) for treating advanced ovarian/fallopian tube cancer.
- Results showed that 98.9% and 93.8% of the oncologists performed selective parietal peritonectomy (SPP) during primary and interval debulking surgeries, while only 4.9% performed total parietal peritonectomy (TPP).
- Concerns about patient morbidity and unclear benefits of TPP were the main reasons for its low usage, indicating a need for further studies to assess TPP's feasibility before initiating a larger clinical trial.

Hepatic mobilization is essential in debulking surgery for resecting diaphragmatic lesions in advanced ovarian cancer. However, hepatic mobilization potentially induces postoperative portal vein thrombosis and hepatic infarction. No reports exist regarding these postoperative complications of gynecological surgeries.

Background: Radical oophorectomy was first performed by Hudson in order to remove an "intact ovarian tumour lodged in the pelvis, with the entire peritoneum remaining attached". We report 16 cases of radical oophorectomy done at our institute in the past 3 years and have analysed the perioperative morbidity as well as feasibility of performing the surgery without much of perioperative complication.
Methods: Twenty-three patients with advanced ovarian cancer who underwent modified en bloc pelvic resection at our institute, between November 2018 and October 2021, were initially enrolled.
Critical appraisal of total gastrectomy plus total colectomy with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy as a treatment for advanced pseudomyxoma peritonei.

Westat, Rockville, Maryland, USA.
Background: The absolute requirement for a long-term favorable result with cytoreductive surgery for pseudomyxoma peritonei is a complete resection of all visible disease. A combination of parietal peritonectomy procedures and visceral resections is required for this to occur. The cytoreductive surgery is supplemented by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
