Preface
The management of advanced pelvic malignancies has evolved substantially over the last few decades. This book aims to outline all aspects of patient care, from perioperative decision‐making and prehabilitation, to treatment strategies, operative approaches, and more. The topics discussed are succinctly covered by experts from around the world. Key recommendations and references highlight international consensus on optimal treatment planning.
This book is only possible by the immense effort and involvement of the entire PelvEx Collaborative network. First established in 2015, PelvEx has grown to include over one‐hundred institutions across the globe.
