Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy (HIPC) in treatment of advanced colorectal cancer.
Methods The Meta-analysis was applied to analyze 8 randomized controlled quantitative studies published at domestic and abroad. These patients treated by HIPC after radical operation with colorectal cancer were included for the treatment group, and those treated only by radical operation with colorectal cancer for the control group. Relative risk (RR) of outcome variable of 3-year and 5-year survival rate and safety between the two groups were compared.
Results There were 8 selected literatures, including 1 501 cases, in which 765 cases for treatment group, and 736 cases for control group. RR of 5-year survival rate of the total patients was 2.39 (95% CI: 1.66-3.45). RR of 3-year survival rate of the total patients was 2.13 (95% CI: 1.45-3.13). The results demonstrated that HIPC could improve 5-year and 3-year survival rate, and sensitivity analysis confirmed the conclusions more reliable. The security was described in 5 literatures, the available information showed smaller potential security issue.
Conclusions HIPC after radical operation of advanced colorectal cancer can increase 5-year and 3-year survival rate of patients, improve the prognosis of patients. Whether patients with increased incidence of postoperative complications related to the HIPC is no clear-cut conclusions for lack of related research.
