. There are oncology surgeons throughout many countries today using the techniques that Paul Sugarbaker, M.D., pioneered years ago. Paul Sugarbaker has carved an impressive career in Washington, D.C., serving as the director of the Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Program at the Washington Cancer Institute. He is considered one of the nation’s innovators and authorities on the treatment of peritoneal mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer that attacks the lining of the abdomen and is traced to asbestos exposure. He has also been involved in the treatment of other diseases, such as abdominal sarcomas, peritoneal carcinomatosis and pseudomyxoma peritonei. Sugarbaker is best known for his development of multi-modal approach to the treatment of different cancers. His use of cytoreductive surgery, coupled with intraperitoneal chemotherapy, has become widespread because of the success he experienced.
