Hipec in Puebla - Surgical oncologist

Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a specialized procedure used to treat certain types of cancer that affect the abdominal cavity. It is an effective treatment option for patients with stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, and peritoneal carcinomatosis. HIPEC is often combined with conventional chemotherapy to help improve treatment effectiveness.

Common causes

HIPEC is used when cancer is confined to the abdominal cavity and has not spread to other organs. It is recommended for patients who may benefit from cytoreductive surgery combined with localized chemotherapy treatment.

Treatments and procedures

This treatment consists of two stages. First, cytoreductive surgery is performed to remove all visible tumors. This is followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), during which a heated solution containing anticancer medications is circulated throughout the abdominal cavity to destroy any remaining cancer cells.

The board-certified surgical oncologist in Puebla performs this procedure using advanced technology, providing personalized treatment and comprehensive care for each patient.
