Strike action from Monday 15 to Friday 19 June 2026

CPOC and The King Hussein Cancer Centre

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust and The King Hussein Cancer Centre (KHCC) in Jordan have signed a memorandum of understanding to support and train a team there in Cytoreductive Surgery with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC). The KHCC is a not-for-profit specialist cancer centre funded by charity.

As part of this, Mr. Omer Aziz and Professor Sarah O’Dwyer travelled to Jordan in December 2018 and performed their first 2 CRS/HIPEC cases with the KHCC team. They also delivered a grand round presentation, were invited to see the KHCC patients and to meet with their radiologists and oncologists.
