CHICAGO HIPEC

HIPEC (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy), an advanced treatment for abdominal cancers, is performed at Edward-Elmhurst Health by one of the country's most experienced surgical oncologists in HIPEC... We continue to learn more about HIPEC and the cancers we can treat with this surgery. The best way for us to learn about how to effectively treat cancer is by gathering information about patients and how they respond to treatment. We do this through our clinical data registry of HIPEC patients... We ask each patient who has HIPEC with us to be a part of this registry. If patients agree, we track information about his/her disease and success with treatment throughout his/her life. Though we share data from the registry as part of our scientific research, no patient names or other identifying information is ever included.
