title: [The effect of intra-abdominal temperature on the tissue and tumor diffusion of intraperitoneal cisplatin in a model of peritoneal carcinomatosis in rats].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the effects of hyperthermia and hypothermia on the peritoneal and on tumor penetration by intraperitoneal cisplatin.
  
  
  METHODS
  Twenty day old peritoneal carcinomatosis was obtained after intraperitoneal injection of 1 x 10(6) DHD/K12/PROb cells into BD IX rats. Animals were treated by intraperitoneal infusion of cisplatin (25 micrograms/mL) using hyperthermic (16.6 degrees C), normothermic (37.6 degrees C) or hyperthermic (41.8 degrees C) intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Hyperthermia increased cisplatin concentration in tumoral and diaphragmatic tissues compared to normothermic treatment, while renal concentrations were lower. Hypothermia produced lower cisplatin concentrations in both cancer and peritoneal tissues compared to normothermic treatment.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  These experiments confirmed the pharmacological advantage produced by hyperthermia in cisplatin intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
