It is a management option for giant intra-abdominal tumors with pressure symptoms. We present three patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery for giant intra-abdominal tumors between May 2019 and November 2021. Patient 1 had a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) involving stomach, spleen and transverse colon. En bloc resection of the GIST with the involved viscera was done. Patient 2 had a liposarcoma measuring 25.8 \u00d7 19.6 \u00d7 15.3\u00a0cm infiltrating the stomach, spleen and the left hemidiaphragm. Involved viscera and liposarcoma were resected en bloc. Patient 3 had a liposarcoma measuring 40 \u00d7 35 \u00d7 12\u00a0cm and encasing the left ureter. Mass was excised together with part of the left ureter and left ureter reconstructed. Giant intra-abdominal tumors are rare. Involvement of adjacent structures may necessitate multivisceral resections with or without organ reconstruction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjac178","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,14]],"date-time":"2022-04-14T11:13:12Z","timestamp":1649934792000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Cytoreductive surgery for giant locally advanced intra-abdominal tumors in Uganda"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2022","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6192-036X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael","family":"Okello","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Makerere University College of Health Sciences, Kampala, Uganda"},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Lubaga Hospital, Kampala, Uganda"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julius","family":"Nuwagaba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Lubaga Hospital, Kampala, Uganda"},{"name":"Department of Global Health Security, Makerere University Infectious Disease Institute, Kampala, Uganda"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Henry","family":"Ddungu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uganda Cancer Institute, Kampala, Uganda"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fred Machyo","family":"Okuku","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uganda Cancer Institute, Kampala, Uganda"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022052419264202600_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"517","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejca.2008.09.031","article-title":"EORTC-GCG process quality indicators for ovarian cancer surgery","volume":"45","author":"Verleye","year":"2009","journal-title":"Eur J Cancer"},{"key":"2022052419264202600_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"79","DOI":"10.4240\/wjgs.v4.i3.79","article-title":"Giant mesenteric fibromatosis: Report of a case and review of the literature","volume":"4","author":"Gari","year":"2012","journal-title":"World J Gastrointest Surg"},{"key":"2022052419264202600_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"139","DOI":"10.1007\/s13193-016-0505-5","article-title":"Cytoreductive surgery and peritonectomy procedures","volume":"7","author":"Mehta","year":"2016","journal-title":"Indian J Surg Oncol"},{"key":"2022052419264202600_ref4","first-page":"S2","article-title":"Management of peritoneal metastases-basic concepts","volume-title":"J BUON","author":"Sugarbaker","year":"2015"},{"key":"2022052419264202600_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"69","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ygyno.2007.02.026","article-title":"Prognostic factors for complete debulking in advanced ovarian cancer and its impact on survival.
