Abstract: IntroductionPelvic exenteration (PE) refers to the en bloc resection of the involved pelvic organs along with pelvic reconstruction so as to enhance the survival rate for tumor patients.First reported by Brunschwig in 1948,[1] PE has thereafter been utilized to treat rectal cancer,bladder cancer,prostate cancer,and cervical cancer as a curative or palliative treatment for advanced or recurrent malignancies.It is critical to carry out surgical resection of all the involved tumor lesions so as to prolong the overall survival (OS) of patients;nonetheless,such medical manipulation will induce various complications.For patients undergoing radiotherapy in the initial treatment,the increased tissue fragility,together with inflammation,has become trouble intraoperatively.
