Abstract
Our results indicate that it is technically possible to resect the hemipelvis and maintain a viable extremity. Functional results are remarkably good and tumor control has been equivalent to standard hemipelvectomy. Excision of the ilium with preservation of the extremity in selected cases would appear to be a reasonable alternative to the standard hemipelvectomy, which involves amputation of the extremity.Entities:
