Raipur's Sanjeevani Cancer Hospital has taken a major step forward in cancer treatment with the introduction of the PIPAC program (Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy), led by Senior Surgical Oncologist Dr. Diwakar Pandey and his expert team.

This cutting-edge treatment is especially beneficial for patients with challenging and advanced-stage cancers.

Last month, the team successfully treated two patients using the PIPAC technique, targeting severe conditions like intractable ascites and peritoneal disease that had not responded to conventional chemotherapy and biological treatments. These procedures were aimed at providing palliative care, bringing new hope to patients facing these difficult conditions.

Adding to their list of accomplishments, the team recently performed their first HITHOC (Hyperthermic Intrathoracic Chemotherapy) procedure. This marks yet another milestone in the hospital’s mission to provide state-of-the-art cancer care.

Dr. Pandey and his team are now nearing an impressive milestone of completing 75 HIPEC (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy) procedures over the last four years, further cementing Sanjeevani Cancer Hospital's reputation as a leader in cancer treatment.

Sanjeevani Cancer Hospital is recognized as one of the leading cancer treatment centers in central India, equipped with advanced facilities and a team of highly qualified specialists. The hospital’s commitment to patient care is reflected in the success of programs like PIPAC and HIPEC, which offer innovative treatment options to those in need.

Dr. Diwakar Pandey, who brings over a decade of experience in complex surgical oncology, has trained at a prestigious institution in Mumbai, where he earned his MCh in Surgical Oncology. He is also a Fellow of the Society of Surgical Oncology (USA) and the European Society of Surgical Oncology, and has received specialized training at Cleveland Clinic, Florida, and Barcelona.

The launch of the PIPAC program at Sanjeevani Cancer Hospital is a significant step in providing advanced and effective cancer care to patients across central India.
