This important reference book presents the experience of Japanese surgeons in the operative treatment of bone and soft-tissue tumors arising in and around the pelvis. Drawing on more than three decades of work in the field, the authors chart the progress they have witnessed and helped to bring about in the diagnosis and treatment of pelvic tumors. Among those developments are improvements in imaging and other diagnostic methodologies, as well as advancements in microsurgery, methods of irradiation, and adjuvant chemotherapy. Major sections of the book include surgical anatomy, histological classification, biopsy, preparation, surgical approach, reconstructive surgery, and complications and sequelae. Seventeen illustrative cases present the outcomes of a broad spectrum of operative treatments, creating a valuable resource and reference for orthopedic surgeons, oncologists, and all who are involved in the diagnosis and treatment of pelvic tumors.
