Hindquarter Amputation
Hemipelvectomy, also known as a pelvic resection, is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of portion of the pelvic girdle. This procedure is most commonly performed to treat oncologic conditions of the pelvis. Hemipelvectomy can be further classified as ''internal'' and ''external'' hemipelvectomy. An ''internal'' hemipelvectomy is a limb-sparing procedure where the innominate bone is resected while preserving the ipsilateral limb. An ''external'' hemipelvectomy involves the resection of the innominate bone plus amputation of the ipsilateral limb. Medical uses Hemipelvectomy is generally reserved for the treatment of pelvic neoplasms. Examples of malignancies that are treated with hemipelvectomy include osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and Ewing's sarcoma. Rarely, hemipelvectomy is performed in settings of traumatic injury and osteomyelitis. Indications for ''external'' hemipelvectomy include neoplastic extension into the sciatic nerve, where loss of function of the ...
