The Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International (PSOGI) previously issued a recommendation endorsing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for treating diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM). However, broader acceptance of this approach, particularly within some segments of medical oncology, remains limited. To address this, PSOGI initiated a multisociety consensus effort, involving multidisciplinary International Societies, to strengthen and expand the endorsement of CRS-HIPEC for DMPM.

Peritoneal metastases synchronously occurring in the patient with primary colon cancer causes that patient to be at high risk for subsequent disease progression within the abdomen and pelvis. If peritoneal metastases are preoperatively diagnosed, patients are likely to be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without biological therapy prior to cytoreductive surgery (CRS). However, if one only considers patients with peritoneal metastases unexpectedly identified at the time of primary colon cancer resection, the optimal management strategy is neither standardized nor evidence based.

Introduction: Relative Value Units (RVUs) are utilized to measure physician work effort and create national benchmarks. Physicians are often measured against national benchmarks to determine compensation. Using a case study in cytoreductive surgery, we explored variability in coding that can impact national benchmarks.

Cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC has definite application to the management of selected patients with peritoneal metastases. Patients who profit most have a complete cytoreductive surgery. Higher-grade tumors such as colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, and ovarian malignancy are benefited by CRS and HIPEC only under limited circumstances.
