Impact of Time Between Multidisciplinary Team Meeting Discussion and Cytoreductive Surgery With Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Patients With Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases on Surgical, Quality of Life and Survival Outcomes

These findings help to reassure patients who face delays due to patient related or scheduling factors and might facilitate preoperative optimisation. Future research should explore integrated risk models using ECOG and CCI scores to identify patients requiring targeted support.
