PIPAC Surgery

PIPAC is a simple procedure that takes less than an hour. It’s known as a minimally invasive surgery because the doctor only has to make small cuts. They’ll use them to put a tube called a trochar inside your belly. It will help them guide a camera, or laparoscope, and other surgical tools for the procedure. During PIPAC, the doctor injects the medication into your belly through a nebulizer, a machine that turns liquid medicine into a fine mist. That helps it go more deeply into your body. Once the drug is inside your body, you’ll wait for 30 minutes as it goes to work.
