    Background Peritoneal sarcomatosis (PS) is a rare tumor with limited therapeutic options. Bidirectional intraoperative chemotherapy (BDIC) using intravenous ifosfamide and doxorubicin-based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) is an emerging treatment for peritoneal malignancies. Patients and Methods Patients with PS who underwent CRS/BDIC using intravenous ifosfamide and HIPEC from January 2017 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The last follow-up date was May 2022. Results A total of 29 patients were included. Overall survival (OS) rates at 6, 12, 24, and 48 months after CRS/BDIC were 93.1%, 89.2%, 81.4%, and 73.3%, respectively. As of May 2022, 6 patients (20.6%) had died, including four (13.8%) with a proven recurrent tumor and two with incomplete tumor resection completeness of cytoreduction (CC)-2 or CC-3. Of the 20 patients (68.9%) with CC-0 or CC-1, 7 had locoregional tumor recurrence without distant metastasis, whereas the other 13 were alive with no evidence of recurrent tumor in May 2022. Disease recurrence rates were 15% at 6 months and 35% at 12, 24, and 48 months after CRS/BDIC. Clavien–Dindo class ≥ IIIa complications developed in 9 patients (31.0%) with no deaths. Leukopenia occurred in 5 patients (17.2%) and thrombocytopenia in 12 patients (41.3%); these hematologic abnormalities resolved. A total of 9 (31.0%) patients developed nephrotoxicity; all recovered except one, who progressed to chronic kidney disease. Conclusions CRS/BDIC using intravenous ifosfamide and doxorubicin-based HIPEC is a potentially effective treatment for PS and has an acceptable rate of complications.
