The sacrum is frequently invaded by a pelvic tumour. The aim
of this study was to review our experience of treating this group
of patients and to identify the feasibility of a new surgical classification
in the management of these tumours. We reviewed 141 patients who, between 2005 and 2014, had undergone
surgical excision of a pelvic tumour with invasion of the sacrum. In a new classification, pelvisacral (Ps) I, II, and III resections
refer to a sagittal osteotomy through the ipsilateral wing of the
sacrum, through the sacral midline, or lateral to the contralateral
sacral foramina, respectively. A Ps a resection describes a pelvic
osteotomy through the ilium and a Ps b resection describes a concurrent
resection of the acetabulum with osteotomies performed through the
pubis and ischium or the pubic symphysis. Within each type, surgical
approaches were standardized to guide resection of the tumour.Aims
