Summary
This research looked at giving chemotherapy from two directions at once in advanced ovarian cancer (andashay ka cancer, अंडाशय का कैंसर) — through a vein as usual, and also as a fine spray inside the tummy during a keyhole procedure called PIPAC (pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy). The aim was to shrink cancer that could not be removed at first, so that full surgery might become possible.
This academic work explores a bi-directional chemotherapy approach using PIPAC together with intravenous chemotherapy in advanced primary epithelial ovarian cancer. It focuses on combining intraperitoneal and systemic treatment delivery in advanced disease.
