Brief Summary: Introduction

Modern treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis PC combines an aggressive cytoreductive surgery CRS of all macroscopic disease and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy HIPEC performed at the time of surgery It is considered a high risk procedure and post-operative intra-abdominal bleeding is a major issue as it can delay recovery and promote intra-abdominal infections In most severe cases 10 to 20 of patients a second surgery to control the bleeding will be necessary Major causes of bleeding are radical resection extensive peritonectomy length of surgery massive transfusion and use of HIPEC

To reduce the risk of intra-abdominal hemorrhage many strategies have been tried and one of these is the liberal use of FloSeal but there is no data in this particular field of interest Over the last 18 months the investigators have started to use FloSeal in all their cases with large PC and they have observed a dramatic reduction in the rate of reoperation for bleeding and probably secondarily in the use of blood products but this has not been measured

Hypothesis

FloSeal can reduce the risk of bleeding after CRS and HIPEC procedure

Primary objective

To evaluate if the use of FloSeal can reduce the risk of reoperation after CRS and HIPEC procedure in the treatment of PC

Secondary objectives

To evaluate if the use of FloSeal can reduce operative blood loss
To evaluate if the use of FloSeal can reduce the need of blood products after CRS and HIPEC procedure
To evaluate if the use of FloSeal can have an impact on other common surgical complications which can be indirectly bleeding related
To evaluate if the use of FloSeal can have an impact on length of hospital stay
