Incidence of peritoneal carcinomatosis after perioperative FLOT chemotherapy in gastric cancer. single-center analysis in Kazakhstan

Peritoneal carcinomatosis remains a significant challenge following perioperative FLOT chemotherapy in patients with gastric cancer in Kazakhstan, adversely influencing survival outcomes. These findings underscore the necessity for incorporating advanced diagnostic techniques, including peritoneal cytology and improved imaging methods, to enhance early detection and accurate staging. Further prospective studies are warranted to validate these results and develop tailored therapeutic strategies specific to regional healthcare settings.
