Abstract
Introduction: Our study's objective was to provide the method for, and preliminary findings from, robot-assisted cytoreductive surgery (r-CRS) combined with upper-abdominal peritonectomy in pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) with limited peritoneal surface malignancy (PSM).
Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective pilot study on consecutive patients with PSM secondary to pseudomyxoma peritonei with a peritoneal cancer index (PCI) of under 10 who were indicated for r-CRS combined with upper-abdominal peritectomy. Perioperative and 30-day major morbidity and mortality characteristics were analyzed and compared with cases in which laparoscopic CRS (l-CRS) was performed under the same conditions.
Results: Six patients underwent r-CRS combined with an upper-abdominal partial peritonectomy. Their mean PCI was 4.83. Complete cytoreduction was achieved in all patients. The mean duration of the operation was 156.8 minutes. There was no major complication and no mortality. The mean length of hospital stay after surgery was 6.33 days. r-CRS resulted in less blood loss, a lower C-reactive protein level, and a shorter length of hospital stay that were significantly different compared with those of l-CRS.
Conclusions: This is the initial technical report of a robotic approach for CRS combined with upper-abdominal peritonectomy. r-CRS with a combined upper-abdominal peritonectomy was shown to be safe and feasible for PMP with limited PSM.
