‘Heart and Brain’ provides new treatment opportunities for end-stage cancer patients

HIPEC and PIPAC methods enable control and in some cases complete cure of previously considered incurable primary and metastatic peritoneal malignancies

Beginning in 2024, the ‘Heart and Brain’ Center of Excellence in Pleven will launch a program for the treatment of primary and metastatic malignancies of the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity). As part of the program, a team from the General and Oncological Surgery Clinic received training at one of the certified centers in Europe in Castelfranco Veneto, Italy. The hospital now also has state-of-the-art equipment for the treatment of this type of disease.
