Abstract

Peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) can originate from tumors in many organs and are highly malignant, and difficult to diagnose and cure, posing a serious threat to the survival of patients. Although the diagnosis and treatment of PSM have made significant progress in the past two decades, numerous challenges remain. Recently, functionalized biomaterials have shown promise for PSM diagnosis and treatment. Hence, we review the progress of functionalized biomaterials for the diagnosis and treatment of PSM. We first introduce the classification and pathogenesis of PSM. We then discuss the applications of functionalized biomaterials for the diagnosis and treatment of PSM. In particular, we focus on functionalized biomaterials as drug carriers for the treatment of PSM, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, combination therapy, and other therapies. Finally, we summarized the current challenges and provided a perspective on the diagnosis and treatment of PSM.
