Urological approach for cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in a clinical care center.

CONCLUSIONS: In our study, intraoperative UT events and postoperative complications, although not neglectable, were infrequent. Due to the high complexity of these cases, a multidisciplinary approach is mandatory. However, randomized clinical trials are necessary to clarify current data on the need and efficacy of prophylactic ureteral catheterization in patients undergoing CRS-HIPEC.
