Abstract
Peritoneal metastases (PM) have a poor prognosis in gastric cancer (GC). Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) gives favorable outcomes, but the influence of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) remains contentious. We designed to distinguish results between CRS versus HIPEC-CRS in patients with peritoneal metastases from gastric cancer. PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Cochrane library accessed to collect data and language is restricted to English. RevMan 5.4 was used to perform statistical analysis. The outcomes for categorical variables are mentioned in the risk ratio. Ten trials involving 1367 patients in which 707 were CRS-HIPEC, while 660 CRS. We got significant results in 3rd year survival (P < 0.05), while 1st and 5th years are not statistically significant P > 0.05. To compare with CRS, CRS-HIPEC has improved survival rate in deprived of further morbidity or mortality.
