summary

Pelvic ring is composed of sacrum and two sides of the hip, and each side of the hip is composed of ilium, ischium and pubis. The pelvis is covered by muscles that limit the tumor's direct invasion of adjacent vascular and nerve tracts. So, let's talk about the symptoms of pelvic tumor

Symptoms of pelvic tumors

Lumbocrural pain is the only symptom in the early stage of most pelvic tumors: lumbocrural pain is the first symptom in the vast majority of patients, which is characterized by long-term persistent and progressive dull pain or hidden swelling pain, and aggravated pain at night. Local mass is an important early sign of most tumors: the mass can be located on the body surface or protrude to the pelvic cavity. Patients may have constipation, frequent urination, urgency of urination or dysfunction of urination and defecation. Some male patients may have sexual dysfunction.

In the early stage, most of the patients had been in various hospitals due to lumbocrural pain or dysfunction of urination and defecation, suspected as chronic lumbocrural pain, sciatica, lumbar disc herniation, cystitis, proctitis, constipation, hemorrhoids, prostatitis and cauda equina syndrome. Therefore, for patients with the above symptoms for a long time, corresponding imaging examination should be performed to find the cause.

The biopsy of pelvic tumor follows the general principle of bone and soft tissue tumor biopsy. Because most pelvic surgical incisions pass through the iliac crest, biopsy along the iliac crest is the safest. If the tumor is small, deep or located in a complex anatomic location (such as the anterior sacrum and deep iliac bone), CT guided biopsy can be performed. The contamination of retroperitoneal space should be avoided in both puncture biopsy and open biopsy.
