Outcome after Surgery for Metastases to the Pelvic Bone: A Single Institutional Experience.

CONCLUSIONS: Advanced age and low serum albumin levels were associated with high complication rates. Local progression after surgery for metastases to the pelvic bone was affected by the presence of skip lesions, not by surgical margins. Primary cancer type, serum albumin level and visceral metastasis influenced survival. PMID: 28261437 [PubMed - in process]
