Review Description

Isolated Limb perfusion (ILP) and hyperthermic ILP (HILP) are therapeutic options f , patients with uriresectabLe malignancies in the extremities (e.g. primarily meLanoma and so t-. tissue tumors), they induce a high rate of tumor response; associates with high Limb saLva$er. rates and represents an effective alternative to amputation. These are chaLlenging procedur4s with a high technical difficuLty that require the efforts of a muLtidiscipLinary team (surgeon, anesthesiologist, nurse, perfusionist and intensivist). Hemodynamic changes, drug Leakage through collateral vessels, LocaL and systemic toxicity, and potential complications require p continuous and invasive monitoring during the procedure and rigorous post-surgical monit-I ring. The purpose of this review article was to update the strategies for the perioperative cane! of cancer patients undergoing this procedure.
