PMP diagnosed patients కి నేను ఒక honest thing చెప్తాను. ఈ disease కి specialist who knows peritoneal surface oncology specifically అవసరం. General surgeon కి Whipple's పెద్దది అనిపించవచ్చు. కానీ PMP కి, CRS+HIPEC experience ఉన్న surgeon definitely seek చేయాలి.

Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) is a unique disease in peritoneal surface oncology. A low-grade mucinous tumour in the appendix spreads into the peritoneal cavity and accumulates mucin (a jelly-like material). It is slowly progressive, over decades.

CRS+HIPEC is the best treatment for PMP. Following the development of the Sugarbaker technique, this disease shifted from "incurable" to "potentially curable". My Hannover fellowship covered PMP cases extensively.

I tell PMP patients one honest thing. This disease needs a specialist who knows peritoneal surface oncology specifically. A general surgeon might find a Whipple's challenging. But for PMP, you should definitely seek a surgeon with CRS+HIPEC experience.
