Inclusion Criteria:
* Subjects must have histologically confirmed pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP)

* PMP disease does not have any extra-abdominal metastases, with the exception of pulmonary involvement (nodal, parenchymal, and pleural).
* PMP disease is extensive and not amenable to operative management, with or without liver, pancreas, stomach, or abdominal wall involvement.
* Definition of Non-Resectable Disease-
* Non-resectable PMP disease will be defined as the presence of at least one of the following conditions:
* 1\) Extensive small bowel serosa involvement, where it is not possible to preserve at least 1.5-2 m of small bowel
* 2\) Extensive infiltration of the pancreatic surface
* 3\) Mesenteric involvement causing retraction
* 4\) Need for complete gastric resection
* 5\) Urete1ic obstruction
* 6\) Liver disease with no chance to achieve R0 resection with liver remnant volume \> 30%
* 7\) Recurrent disease not amenable to further resection
* Subjects do not have any other available curative treatment options.
* Subjects can have previous abdominal operations, including CRS+HIPEC.
* Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 75.
