Abstract

Extensive surgical procedures like Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) despite being associated with better survival in various peritoneal surface malignancies of ovarian, colorectal, appendicular cancers yet locoregional and distant recurrence has always been an important issue. The study aimed at determining risk factors for recurrence.
