Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an effective treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis, but it has been debated for peritoneal sarcomatosis. The purpose of the study is the presentation of perioperative and long-term results of CRS and hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with peritoneal sarcomatosis. Retrospective study in a prospectively maintained database of 20 patients that underwent 29 CRS + HIPEC for peritoneal sarcomatosis. Clinical and histopathologic variables were correlated to survival. Complete cytoreduction was possible in 86.2% of the cases. The hospital mortality and morbidity rate were 0 and 20.7%, respectively. The median follow-up was 26 months, and recurrence was recorded in 20 cases (69%). The median and 5-year survival was 55 ± 13 (34-58) months and 43%, respectively. Prior surgical score (PSS) was the single variable related to survival ( p  = 0.018). The histologic subtype of the tumor was related to recurrence ( p  &lt; 0.001). CRS and HIPEC in peritoneal sarcomatosis may offer a survival benefit in selected patients with low hospital mortality. The variety of histologic types of sarcomatosis has not made possible the identification of subgroups of patients that may be offered significant benefit by CRS and HIPEC. Further studies are required.
