ESSO 43 | Exploring surgery’s role in treating distant metastasis and extreme cases of peritoneal seeding
Mitsuru Sasako, MD, PhD, Yodogawa Christian Hospital, Osaka, Japan, discusses the role of surgery for patients with distant metastasis, emphasizing that while there is no solid scientific evidence, their experience and some non-randomized studies provide insights. He specifically mentions the use of extreme treatments, such as multiorgan resections for peritoneal seeding, although many surgeons view peritoneal seeding as a poor candidate for conversion surgery. This interview took place at the ESSO 43 congress in Antwerp, Belgium.
