Extreme cytoreductive surgery (eCRS) may sometimes be required to achieve complete cytoreduction, which is one of the most important prognostic factors. This study investigated the impact of eCRS on survival and peri-postoperative outcomes. Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) were retrospectively examined. Patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC were divided into eCRS and less extensive CRS (leCRS) groups. Resection of ≥5 organs or ≥3 small bowel anastomoses was defined as eCRS. Survival and perioperative outcomes of both groups were compared.In the study including 31 patients, eCRS-HIPEC was used in 15 patients. Complete cytore-duction (CC score 0/1) was achieved in all 31 patients. Compared with LeCRS, mean length of stay, length of stay in the intensive care unit, mean peritoneal cancer index (PCI), and intraoperative blood loss were higher in the eCRS group. Additionally, the risk of developing complications was observed to be more frequent and the duration of surgery was longer. Rates of serious complications and morbidity were similar in patients undergoing eCRS compared with leCRS. In patients with high PCI and multiple organ involvement, complete cytoreduction can be achieved by performing eCRS and equivalent survival results can be achieved with low PCI..

In 2019, the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) estimated that prostate cancer (PC) was the 16th cause of death globally in males. In Mexico, PC epidemiology has been reported for a selected number of metrics and years, although without including the most up-to-date estimates. Herein, we describe and compare the burden and trends of PC in Mexico and its 32 states from 2000 to 2019. For this, we extracted online available data from the GBD 2019 to estimate the crude and age-standardized rate (ASR per 100,000 people) of incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). In Mexico, PC caused 27.1 thousand (95% uncertainty intervals, 20.6-36.0 thousand) incident cases, 9.2 thousand (7.7-12.7 thousand) deaths, and 161.5 thousand (122.7-219.5 thousand) DALYs in males of all ages in 2019. Among states, Sinaloa had the greatest ASR of incidence and Guerrero the highest values of deaths and DALYs. The burden of PC showed an increasing trend, although the magnitude of change differed between metrics and locations. We found both an increasing national trend and subnational variation in the burden of PC. Our results confirm the need for updated and timely estimates to design effective diagnostic and treatment campaigns in locations where the burden of PC is the highest.
