Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Recurrent Nephroblastoma in Children.

Abstract

For children with recurrent nephroblastoma, intraoperative HIPEC has little impact on the body, can significantly improve the effectiveness and reduce the recurrence rate, and does not increase the adverse reactions. Children, Recurrence, Nephroblastoma, Hyperthermic perfusion. Sixty children with recurrent nephroblastoma treated by HIPEC in the Department of Surgical Oncology were analysed and divided into group A and group B, according to different perfused drugs. Additionally, 30 children without a history of HIPEC were selected as the control group (group C). The changes in routine blood indices, albumin, and hepatic and renal function of the three groups were observed before and after treatment. The clinical efficacy, frequency of adverse reactions, as well as 6-month and 1-year tumour recurrence in the three groups were compared. To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of recurrent nephroblastoma in children. Department of Oncology, Baoding Children's Hospital, from August 2018 to November 2021. The efficacy in groups A and B was significantly higher than that in group C (p<0.05). Changes in routine blood indices, albumin, and hepatic and renal function showed no statistically significant differences among the three groups during each observation period after treatment (all p>0.05). No significant differences were found in the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups during treatment (all p>0.05). Six months after treatment, the tumour recurrence rate presented no significant differences among the three groups. However, at 12-months after treatment, the recurrence rate in groups A and B was lower than that in group C (p<0.05). Randomised controlled trial.
