HIPEC surgery provides a more effective treatment option.

Indication: HIPEC surgery can treat diseases, fluid build-up and cancers in the abdomen Regimen: Depending on how many tumours need to be removed, the tumour removal portion of the operation can take anywhere from a couple of hours to as many as eight or nine hours, and chemotherapy application takes another two hours.
