Ovarian cancer (OC) is the sixth most common neoplasm in women. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), a strategy combining maximal cytoreductive surgery with maximal regional chemotherapy, has been proposed to treat OC. At present, less randomized trials has determined HIPEC real impact on patients with OC. In this brief report, we reported results of selected studies of treatment with HIPEC for patients with OC. Future prospects are conclusively discussed.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the sixth most common neoplasm in women. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), a strategy combining maximal cytoreductive surgery with maximal regional chemotherapy, has been proposed to treat OC. At present, less randomized trials has determined HIPEC real impact on patients with OC. In this brief report, we reported results of selected studies of treatment with HIPEC for patients with OC. Future prospects are conclusively discussed.
