OBJECTIVE Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a treatment option with curative intent for selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). CRS and HIPEC have been implemented in Denmark at a single centre since 2006. Six years of data on these patients were analysed. METHODS Patients with PC from colorectal or appendiceal cancer, pseudomyxoma peritonei or malignant peritoneal mesothelioma referred to the single national HIPEC centre were prospectively registered from June 2006 to July 2012. Morbidity, 30-day mortality and long-term survival of patients who underwent CRS and HIPEC were analysed. RESULTS In total, 80 patients underwent CRS and HIPEC. PC originated from colorectal cancer in 34 patients, pseudomyxoma peritonei in 29, appendiceal cancer in 13 and malignant peritoneal mesothelioma in four patients. Thirty-two patients had one or more complications during the hospital stay. The 30-day mortality rate was 1.3%. The predicted 2-, 3- and 5-year survival was 60%, 47% and 38% in patients with PC from colorectal cancer, and 100%, 93% and 73% in pseudomyxoma peritonei patients. CONCLUSIONS CRS and HIPEC is a safe procedure when centralized as in Denmark. Favourable long-term outcome was achieved in selected patients with PC from colorectal cancer and pseudomyxoma peritonei. Short-term and long-term outcomes were comparable to results from international centres.

D007036	Hypothermia, Induced	Abnormally low BODY TEMPERATURE that is intentionally induced in warm-blooded animals by artificial means. In humans, mild or moderate hypothermia has been used to reduce tissue damages, particularly after cardiac or spinal cord injuries and during subsequent surgeries.

D008654	Mesothelioma	A tumor derived from mesothelial tissue (peritoneum, pleura, pericardium). It appears as broad sheets of cells, with some regions containing spindle-shaped, sarcoma-like cells and other regions showing adenomatous patterns. Pleural mesotheliomas have been linked to exposure to asbestos. (Dorland, 27th ed)	Mesotheliomas

D010537	Peritoneum	A membrane of squamous EPITHELIAL CELLS, the mesothelial cells, covered by apical MICROVILLI that allow rapid absorption of fluid and particles in the PERITONEAL CAVITY. The peritoneum is divided into parietal and visceral components. The parietal peritoneum covers the inside of the ABDOMINAL WALL. The visceral peritoneum covers the intraperitoneal organs. The double-layered peritoneum forms the MESENTERY that suspends these organs from the abdominal wall.

D011553	Pseudomyxoma Peritonei	A peritoneal adenocarcinoma characterized by build-up of MUCUS in the PERITONEAL CAVITY. Mucus secreting cells may attach to the peritoneal lining and continue to secrete mucus. The majority of cases represent tumor spread from a primary low-grade mucinous neoplasm of the APPENDIX (NCI Thesaurus).
