Biological considerations with pelvic neoplasms

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1999
The strategy of therapy for any neoplasm is determined to a significant degree by the biological characteristics of the neoplasm. The ones benefited most by surgical ablation are the cancers that grow locally but never metastasize. The second group is composed of neoplasms with exceedingly slow growth rates permitting long periods of symptom-free ...

Pelvic Lipomatosis: A Condition Simulating Pelvic Neoplasm

Radiology, 1968
Since 1959, at least six cases of a peculiar high fixation of the bladder and sigmoid colon have been described, having in common a bizarre deformity and displacement of the pelvic viscera (1, 2). The appearance tended to simulate pelvic neoplasm, and all but one of the six underwent laparotomy, only to have it found that large amounts of normal or ...

Mimickers of neoplasm on abdominal and pelvic CT

Abdominal Imaging, 2014
The radiologist can encounter benign significant imaging findings on computed tomography that can be incorrectly interpreted as neoplasm. The authors review several benign findings and demonstrate several methods to differentiate these findings from more sinister pathology.It is imperative for the radiologist to be cognizant of and how to correctly ...

Early Detection of Pelvic Neoplasms

Postgraduate Medicine, 1964
The individual physician can salvage more cancer patients through early diagnosis than expert teams can salvage in large treatment centers.Examination of the female pelvis yields data more useful in early detection of cancer than does the clinical inspection of any other anatomic area.

Multidiscipline Approach to Treatment of Recurrent Pelvic Neoplasms

Archives of Surgery, 1968
THE RADICAL surgical treatment of recurrent carcinoma of the cervix was first proposed by Brunschwig in 1948. 1 With the accumulation of experience, operative morbidity and mortality has steadily decreased so that current rates are quite acceptable. 2-4 Sufficient time has elapsed so that definitive five-year survival statistics have been accumulated ...

Spinal—pelvic fixation in patients with lumbosacral neoplasms

Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine, 2000
Object. Primary and metastatic neoplasms of the lumbosacral junction frequently pose a complex problem for the surgical management and stabilization of the spine because of the anatomical and biomechanical factors of this transition zone between spine and pelvis.
