Methods · Sixty-two cases of gastrointestinal cancer patients were enrolled who accepted cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in Department of General Surgery, Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Fudan University, July 2014 to June 2017. The gastrointestinal function of patients were evaluated according to the I-FEED scoring system. The patients were divided into normal recovery group (I-FEED score<6, n38) and delayed recovery group (I-FEED score ≥6, n24). Univariate and multivariate Logistic analyses were performed on characteristic factors that may affect the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function including gender, age, presence of diabetes, preoperative albumin, and so on. Results · There were significantly differences in the preoperative serum albumin level (P0.040), intraoperative bleeding (P0.044), the time of extraction of the peritoneal cavity drainage tube (P0.026), the time of urethral tube extraction (P0.021) and the time of hospitalization (P0.017) in the two groups of patients with normal or delayed gastrointestinal function recovery. Multivariate Logistic regression results suggested that preoperative serum albumin level may be beneficial for the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function (OR0.84, 95% CI 0.17-4.27, P0.041). Conclusion · The preoperative serum albumin level can be used as an independent predictor of postoperative gastrointestinal functional recovery in patients with gastrointestinal cancer after cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
