Abstract
Short-term QoL with physical and functional well-being are impaired in the first few months after surgery plus HIPEC using oxaliplatin. Long-term QoL returns to baseline at 3 months; however 20% of patients still report psychosocial problems, gastrointestinal symptoms and oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy. It is useful and important for patients to see this HIPEC QoL data at the time of consultation before treatment.
