There is a paucity of data on the histopathological response of peritoneal tumor deposits from colorectal cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Particularly, no prospective assessment of chemotherapy-associated histopathological response within the peritoneum has been performed so far. Therefore, there is an urgent need to conduct a clinical trial aimed at prospectively assessing the histopathological response within the peritoneum in patients with peritoneal metastasis from colorectal cancer.
