Abstract
While traditional pelvic exenterations (PE) represent a potentially curative treatment for recurrent tumours localized centrally in the pelvis, new surgical techniques have been developed recently to enable a complete resection even in tumours invading into the pelvic side wall. Extended pelvic exenterations (EPE) include resection of internal, external, or common iliac vessels, pelvic side-wall muscles, large pelvic nerves, or pelvic bones. EPE are currently performed only in a few institutions and data on treatment morbidity are not available.
