Background: Encouraging results have been recently reported in selected patients affected by pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The selection factors predicting clinical outcome are still a matter of clinical investigation. We assessed the prognostic reliability of serum tumor markers in a large series of patients with PMP undergoing CRS and HIPEC.Methods: Sixty-two patients with PMP were operated on at a single institution with the intent of performing adequate CRS (residual tumor nodules
