What is HIPEC?

HIPEC (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy) is a revolutionary new method for treating late-stage abdominal cavity cancer. Successful results from its application at the Top Ichilov Clinic give hope to patients who considered their diagnosis a death sentence.

The procedure is based on the combined use of chemotherapy and thermal exposure directly during the operation. After the removal of the tumour mass, a large dose of heated chemotherapy drugs is introduced into the abdominal cavity using a perfusion machine, significantly enhancing their effectiveness on the affected area.

HIPEC can rightfully be called a breakthrough in oncology, as this method not only offers chances for salvation but also significantly alleviates the suffering of patients, improving their quality of life at the most severe stages of abdominal cavity cancer. The Top Ichilov Clinic has accumulated serious practical experience in the application of this method.

In Which Diseases is HIPEC Applicable?

• colon cancer;
• stomach cancer;
• ovarian cancer;
• peritoneal pseudomyxoma;
• appendiceal carcinoma;
• mesothelioma;
• recurrent ovarian carcinoma;
• ascites due to carcinomatosis of the peritoneum with any tumour.

The HIPEC procedure is most suitable for patients suffering from a peritoneal plasma barrier, which blocks the entry of high-concentration chemotherapy drugs into the bloodstream, reducing the effectiveness of traditional chemotherapy. An additional advantage of the HIPEC procedure (hot chemotherapy) is the localized effect on the affected organs of the abdominal cavity, which reduces the likelihood of side effects.
