This is a randomised controlled study aims to determine the oncological effectiveness of adjuvant HIPEC, using intraperitoneal Mytomicin C following a curative resection of a cT4 Colon cancer in preventing the development of peritoneal carcinomatosis in addition to the standard adjuvant systemic treatment.
In the experimental group (50 patients) after laparotomy and revision of the abdominal cavity organs, peritoneal lavage will be performed followed by immunological examination. After performing the surgical intervention, the patient will undergo intraoperative intra-abdominal chemotherapy with mitomycin C. Further, lavage of the abdominal cavity will be repeated, followed by immunological examination. In the control group (40 patients), after laparotomy and revision, peritoneal lavage will also be performed, followed by immunological examination. Patients of this group will not receive intraoperative intra-abdominal chemotherapy. After performing the surgical intervention, the patient will perform irrigation of the abdominal cavity with physiological saline. Further, lavage of the abdominal cavity will be repeated, followed by immunological examination.

In the control group (40 patients), after laparotomy and revision, peritoneal lavage will also be performed with subsequent immunological examination. Patients of this group will not receive intraperitoneal chemotherapy. After performing the surgical intervention, the patient will be irrigation of the abdominal cavity with physiological saline. Further, lavage of the abdominal cavity will be repeated, followed by immunological examination.
