Critical evaluation of contemporary management in a new Pelvic Exenteration Unit: The first 25 consecutive cases

Table 4 Characteristics of post-pelvic exenteration recurrent diseases

Pre-PE status	Histology origin	Regional recurrence	Distant metastasis	Regional and distant	R0	R1
Primary	Colonic	0	0	1	1	0
Primary	Rectal	0	1	1	0	2
Primary	Sacral chordoma	1	0	0	1	0
Recurrent	Rectal	1	0	0	0	1
Recurrent	Cervical	0	1	1	2	0
Total		2	2	3	4	3

Both microscopic resection margin status and pre-exenteration primary or recurrent tumours do not show any statistically significant influence on post-exenteration recurrence (P = 0.67). PE: Pelvic Exenteration.
