Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Growing evidence in literature is supporting the role of ultrasound scan (US) as accurate tool in diagnosis and staging of gynecologic cancers. In particular, different studies demonstrated the accuracy of US in assessing endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancer in the primary setting. However, the number of studies investigating the role of US in the recurrent setting is limited. Moreover, there is no evidence in literature exploring the role of US in laterally-extended pelvic recurrences from gynecologic cancer, where the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan is still considered the most accurate tool.

Inclusion Criteria: All consecutive patients with histologically-proven recurrent or persistent gynecological cancer who are planned to undergo pelvic exenteration or laterally extended pelvic resection, both with curative and with palliative intent. * Anterior/total pelvic exenteration * Laterally extended endopelvic resection (LEER) * Laterally extended pelvic resection (LEPR) is defined as an en bloc lateral resection of a pelvic tumor involving sidewall muscle, and/or bone, and/or major nerve, and/or major vascular structure * With or without stoma formation Exclusion Criteria: * Radical hysterectomy without lateral resection * Rectal resection only (posterior exenteration)
