Received Date: Aug 01, 2023 / Published Date: Aug 30, 2023
Abstract
Exenteration of the pelvis is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of various pelvic organs, including the uterus, cervix, vagina, and sometimes portions of the bladder and rectum. This extensive procedure is primarily indicated for the treatment of recurrent or persistent gynecologic cancers, which pose a significant clinical challenge. This abstract provides an overview of the indications, surgical techniques, outcomes, and controversies surrounding pelvic exenteration in the context of gynecologic malignancies.
