Abstract
Pelvic exenteration surgery has evolved dramatically in recent decades and now represents
the standard of care for many patients with advanced pelvic malignancy. Most recently
the use of complex vascular resection and reconstructive techniques have been applied
in advanced pelvic oncology surgery at specialist units and these oncovascular techniques
are considered one of the frontiers in this field. This article summaries the historical
evolution of oncovascular surgery in the pelvis and sets the scene for where this
treatment is going. The role of vascular resection and reconstruction in curative
treatment of advanced pelvic malignancy is an evolving area that is redefining the
boundaries of what was historically thought possible.
