The chemotherapy solution is able to penetrate the affected tissue for destroying the microscopic cancer cell in a better way.  HIPEC when used along with surgical tumor has improved the outcome when compared with chemotherapy or surgery.

HIPEC delivers a higher dose of chemotherapy to directly kills your cancer cells in abdomen, traditional chemotherapy is given intravenously and is circulated in your bloodstream. Higher dose of chemotherapy is needed for killing cancer cells in a single treatment.  HIPEC has also few side effects as compares to traditional chemotherapy because little chemotherapy gets absorbed in your blood stream.

You should consult with your doctor whether you are a candidate for this procedure or not.
