Introduction:
Although an entire hemipelvis can be resected, partial pelvectomy is usually adequate for removing tumors involving the pelvis, coxofemoral joint or proximal aspect of the thigh. Hemipelvectomy is a complex, aggressive surgical procedure. It requires thorough familiarity with regional anatomy, careful consideration of orthopedic, urinary, intestinal, abdominal wall, and integument-related procedural aspects and meticulous adherence to techniques of surgical oncology when indicated. The purpose of this article is to provide a detailed, comprehensive description of the preoperative assessment, surgical technique and its variations, and postoperative management associated with hemipelvectomy in dogs with tumour of the pelvis and surrounding tissues.
