Sumario:Peritoneal sarcomatosis from uterine sarcoma is a rare disease with no effective treatment and poor prognosis. Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has successful results in peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastrointestinal/gynecological origins. We show that CRS/HIPEC is safe, feasible, and may benefit selected patients with peritoneal sarcomatosis from uterine sarcoma.
