Revolutionary Cancer Treatment: PIPAC

---

PIPAC (Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy) is an innovative, cutting-edge technique that offers a targeted and less invasive approach to treating cancers in the abdominal cavity. This groundbreaking treatment delivers chemotherapy directly to the tumor site in aerosolized form, enhancing its efficacy while reducing systemic toxicity.

PIPAC is a minimally invasive procedure where aerosolized chemotherapy is delivered directly into the peritoneal cavity using laparoscopic surgery. The pressurized environment allows deeper tissue penetration of the chemotherapy, maximizing its impact on tumor cells and sparing healthy tissues from excessive damage.

PIPAC is a promising treatment option for patients with advanced peritoneal carcinomatosis, particularly those with:

• Gastrointestinal cancers (gastric, colorectal)
• Ovarian cancer
• Peritoneal metastases from various abdominal cancers
• Pseudomyxoma peritonei
• Malignant ascites

This technique is especially beneficial for patients who have exhausted other treatment options or are unable to tolerate systemic chemotherapy.

1. Improved Chemotherapy Penetration:

• PIPAC uses high pressure to ensure chemotherapy penetrates deeply into tumor tissues, enhancing its effectiveness.

2. Reduced Side Effects:

• Unlike traditional systemic chemotherapy, PIPAC focuses the treatment where it’s needed most—the peritoneum—resulting in fewer side effects and improved patient quality of life.

3. Repeatable Treatment:

• PIPAC can be administered multiple times over the course of treatment, allowing for continuous management of the disease without overwhelming the body.

4. Minimally Invasive:

• Delivered through a laparoscopy, PIPAC involves minimal surgical intervention and recovery time, enabling faster return to daily activities.

5. Personalized Treatment:

• PIPAC can be tailored to the patient’s specific cancer type and stage, ensuring optimal therapeutic outcomes.

6. Works Where Other Treatments May Fail:

• For patients with resistant or recurrent peritoneal metastases, PIPAC offers a hopeful alternative when systemic therapies are no longer effective.
