Abstract

Male pelvic exenteration is a challenging procedure with high morbidity. In very selected cases robotic approach could make dissection easier and decrease morbidity due to a better view and higher range of movements. In this paper we describe port placement, instruments, minilaparotomy location and sequence of procedures step by step. We differentiate three situations: total pelvic exenteration with abdominoperineal resection, colostomy and urostomy; pelvic exenteration with colo-rectal/anal anastomosis and urostomy; pelvic exenteration with abdominoperineal resection, colostomy and urinary tract reconstruction.
