The influence of postoperative morbidity on long-term quality of life outcomes following pelvicexenteration. Pelvicexenteration provides significant survival benefits for selected patients diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer. However, in-hospital postoperative morbidity such as abdominal abscess, sepsis, and anastomotic leak remain highly prevalent, which can have short/long-term impacts on patient quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to determine the influence of postoperative morbidity on QoL outcomes in patients following pelvicexenteration. This prospective cohort study included patients who underwent pelvicexenteration at a tertiary teaching hospital in Sydney, between 2008 and 2023. QoL measures were collected at baseline, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months
Imaging in pelvicexenteration-a multidisciplinary practice guide from the ESGAR-SAR-ESUR-PelvEx collaborative group. Pelvicexenteration (PE) is a radical surgical approach designed for the curative treatment of advanced pelvic malignancies, requiring en-bloc resection of multiple pelvic organs. While the procedure is radical, it has shown promise in enhancing long-term survival and is now the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and the need for clear and precise imaging reports to optimize patient care. KEY POINTS: MRI is mandatory for local staging in pelvicexenteration. Structured reporting (using the template provided in this guide) is recommended. Multidisciplinary review of imaging is critical for surgical planning.
