With the development of surgical techniques, adjuvant therapy and neoadjuvant therapy, the survival time of rectal cancer patients after surgery has been significantly improved, but organ dysfunction is still an important problem affecting the quality of life of patients after surgery. With the continuous deepening of clinical research and practice and the updating of relevant theories, more detailed and reliable evidence-based medical evidence has been accumulated in the field of pelvic organ function protection in rectal cancer surgery, and has been continuously verified in the clinical real world at home and abroad. In order to further improve the awareness of domestic physicians on the protection of organ function during the treatment of rectal cancer, standardize the evaluation methods and surgical methods, reduce the incidence of organ dysfunction, and thus improve the quality of life of patients, Society of Colon & Rectal Surgeons of Chinese College of Surgeons of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Section of Colorectal Surgery of Branch of Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, National Health Commission Capacity Building and Continuing Education Center Colorectal Surgery Committee, and Colorectal and Anal Function Surgeons Committee of China Sexology Association organized the discussion among relevant experts. On the basis of the 2021 edition of the Chinese Expert Consensus on the Protection of Pelvic Organ Function in Rectal Cancer Surgery, the recent evidence-based medical evidence was analyzed and summarized, and the definition, risk factors, evaluation methods, prevention and other issues of organ dysfunction after rectal cancer surgery were analyzed with reference to relevant domestic and foreign studies and combined with clinical practice. Proposed the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of pelvic organ dysfunction in rectal cancer surgery, and finally formed the "Chinese expert Consensus on the protection of pelvic organ function in rectal cancer surgery (version 2025)".

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical significance of extended pelvic lymph node dissection (EPLND) under the robot-assisted laparoscope in the treatment of high-risk PCa. METHODS: This study included 29 cases of high-risk PCa treated by robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and EPLND from April 2020 to January 2023. We collected the general data on the patients, recorded the status of dissection of the lymph nodes and postoperative complications, and analyzed the significance of EPLND. RESULTS: The patients were aged (69.3±6.6) years old, with the preoperative PSA level of 8.43－434 μg/L, Gleason score (GS) 6 in 1, GS 7 in 9, and GS ≥8 in 19 cases. The operation time averaged (97.2±15.7) min, with the mean blood loss of (30.5±11.2) ml, and 3－42 (median = 13) lymph nodes dissected, less than 10 in 10 cases, 11－19 in 12, and more than 20 in 7. Positive pelvic lymph nodes (median = 4) were found in 13 cases, with a positive rate of 44.8%. Positive incisal margin was observed in 11 cases (37.9%), lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in 4 (13.8%), and perineural invasion (PNI) in another 4 (13.8%). Lymph node metastasis was significantly correlated with positive incisal margin (P<0.05), but not with LVI, PNI or age (P>0.05). No significant vascular or nerve injuries occurred during the operation. GS 6 was detected in 1, GS 7 in 7, and GS ≥8 in 21 cases postoperatively. CONCLUSION Robot-assisted laparoscopic EPLND is an important strategy for the treatment of high-risk PCa, which contributes to accurate pathological staging of the malignancy. However, evidence is lacking for its benefit to the survival of high-risk PCa patients, and more follow-up studies are needed to confirm its treatment effect.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the biomechanical differences among the five internal fixation modes in treatment of Day type Ⅱ crescent fracture dislocation of pelvis (CFDP), and find an internal fixation mode which was the most consistent with mechanical principles. METHODS: Based on the pelvic CT data of a healthy adult male volunteer, a Day type Ⅱ CFDP finite element model was established by using Mimics 17.0, ANSYS 12.0-ICEM, Abaqus 2020, and SolidWorks 2012 softwares. After verifying the validity of the finite element model by comparing the anatomical parameters with the three-dimensional reconstruction model and the mechanical validity verification, the fracture and dislocated joint of models were fixed with S ₁ sacroiliac screw combined with 1 LC-Ⅱ screw (S ₁+LC-Ⅱ group), S ₁ sacroiliac screw combined with 2 LC-Ⅱ screws (S ₁+2LC-Ⅱ group), S ₁ sacroiliac screw combined with 2 posterior iliac screws (S ₁+2PIS group), S ₁ and S ₂ sacroiliac screws combined with 1 LC-Ⅱ screw (S ₁+S ₂+LC-Ⅱ group), S ₂-alar-iliac (S ₂AI) screw combined with 1 LC-Ⅱ screw (S ₂AI+LC-Ⅱ group), respectively. After each internal fixation model was loaded with a force of 600 N in the standing position, the maximum displacement of the crescent fracture fragments, the maximum stress of the internal fixation (the maximum stress of the screw at the ilium fracture and the maximum stress of the screw at the sacroiliac joint), sacroiliac joint displacement, and bone stress distribution around internal fixation were observed in 5 groups. RESULTS: The finite element model in this study has been verified to be effective. After loading 600 N stress, there was a certain displacement of the crescent fracture of pelvis in each internal fixation model, among which the S ₁+LC-Ⅱ group was the largest, the S ₁+2LC-Ⅱ group and the S ₁+2PIS group were the smallest. The maximum stress of the internal fixation mainly concentrated at the sacroiliac joint and the fracture line of crescent fracture. The maximum stress of the screw at the sacroiliac joint was the largest in the S ₁+LC-Ⅱ group and the smallest in the S ₂AI+LC-Ⅱ group. The maximum stress of the screw at the ilium fracture was the largest in the S ₁+2PIS group and the smallest in the S ₁+2LC-Ⅱ group. The displacement of the sacroiliac joint was the largest in the S ₁+LC-Ⅱ group and the smallest in the S ₁+S ₂+LC-Ⅱ group. In each internal fixation model, the maximum stress around the sacroiliac screws concentrated on the contact surface between the screw and the cortical bone, the maximum stress around the screws at the iliac bone concentrated on the cancellous bone of the fracture line, and the maximum stress around the S ₂AI screw concentrated on the cancellous bone on the iliac side. The maximum bone stress around the screws at the sacroiliac joint was the largest in the S ₁+LC-Ⅱ group and the smallest in the S ₂AI+LC-Ⅱ group. The maximum bone stress around the screws at the ilium was the largest in the S ₁+2PIS group and the smallest in the S ₁+LC-Ⅱ group. CONCLUSION For the treatment of Day type Ⅱ CFDP, it is recommended to choose S ₁ sacroiliac screw combined with 1 LC-Ⅱ screw for internal fixation, which can achieve a firm fixation effect without increasing the number of screws.

OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress of pubic symphysis diastasis and provide effective reference for orthopedic surgeons in the diagnosis and treatment of pubic symphysis diastasis. METHODS: The anatomy, injury mechanism, treatment, and other aspects of pubic symphysis diastasis were summarized and analyzed by reviewing the relevant research literature at domestically and internationally in recent years. RESULTS: The incidence of pubic symphysis diastasis is high in pelvic fractures, which is caused by the injury of the ligaments and fibrocartilage disc around the pubic symphysis by external force. The treatment plan should be individualized according to the pelvic stability and the needs of patients, aiming to restore the stability and integrity of the pelvis and improve the quality of life of patients after surgery. CONCLUSION At present, the research on pubic symphysis diastasis still needs to be improved. In the future, high-quality, multi-center, and large-sample studies are of great significance for the selection of treatment methods and the evaluation of effectiveness for patients with pubic symphysis diastasis.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility of S₂ alar iliac screw insertion in Chinese children using computerized three-dimension reconstruction and simulated screw placement technique, and to optimize the measurement of screw parameters. METHODS: A total of 83 pelvic CT data of children who underwent pelvic CT scan December 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, excluding fractures, deformities, and tumors. There were 44 boys and 39 girls, with an average age of (10.66±3.52) years, and were divided into 4 groups based on age (group A:5 to 7 years old;group B:8 to 10 years old;group C:11-13 years old;group D:14 to 16 years old). The original CT data obtained were imported into Mimics software, and the bony structure of the pelvis was reconstructed, and the maximum and minimum cranial angles of the screws were simulated in the three-dimensional view with the placement of 6.5 mm diameter S2 alar iliac screws. Subsequently, the coronal angle, sagittal angle, transverse angle, total length of the screw, length of the screw in the sacrum, width of the iliac, and distance of the entry point from the skin were measured in 3-Matic software at the maximum and minimum head tilt angles, respectively. The differences among the screw parameters of S₂ alar iliac screws in children of different ages and the differences between gender and side were compared and analyzed. RESULTS: In all 83 children, 6.5 mm diameter S₂ iliac screws could be placed. There was no significant difference between the side of each screw placement parameter. The 5 to 7 years old children had a significantly smaller screw coronal angle than other age groups, but in the screw sagittal angle, the difference was more mixed. The 5 to 7 years old children could obtain a larger angle at the maximum head tilt angle of the screw, but at the minimum cranial angle, the larger angle was obtained in the age group of 11 to 13 years old. There were no significant differences among the age groups. The coronal angle and sagittal angle under maximum cephalic angle and minimum cranial angle of 5 to 7 years old male were (40.91±2.91)° and (51.85±3.75)° respectively, which were significantly greater than in female. The coronal angle under minimum cranial angle was significantly greater in girls aged 8-10 years old than in boys. For the remaining screw placement angle parameters, there were no significant differences between gender. The differences in the minimum iliac width, the screw length, and the length of the sacral screws showed an increasing trend with age in all age groups. The distance from the screw entry point to the skin in boys were significantly smaller than that of girls. The minimum width of the iliac in boys at 14 to 16 years of age were significantly wider than that in girls at the same stage. In contrast, in girls aged 5 to 7 years and 11 to 13 years, the screw length was significantly longer than that of boys at the same stage. CONCLUSION The pelvis of children aged 5 to 16 years can safely accommodate the placement of 6.5 mm diameter S₂ alar iliac screws, but the bony structures of the pelvis are developing and growing in children, precise assessment is needed to plan a reasonable screw trajectory and select the appropriate screw length.

A locked pubic ramus body is an unusual variant of lateral compression injury. Till date, there have been only 25 cases reported in the published literature. We herein described a case where the right pubic ramus was entrapped within the opposite obturator foramen with an overlap of greater than 4 cm, with associated urethral injury. When all maneuvers of closed and instrumented reduction failed, we performed a superior pubic ramus osteotomy on the left side and unlocked the incarcerated right pubic ramus. The osteotomy site was stabilized with a 6-hole recon plate. The patient underwent delayed urethral repair 10 weeks after the index surgery. At 3-year follow-up, the patient has sexual dysfunction especially difficulty in maintaining erection, secondary urethral stricture, heterotopic ossification, and breakage of implants.

Leiomyosarcoma of urinary bladder (LMS-UB) is a highly malignant mesenchymal tumor, accounting for less than 0.5% of all bladder malignancies, with a predominant clinical presentation of hematuria. Here we report a case of low-grade LMS-UB. A 44-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with urodynia for 2 weeks. The patient's pelvis CT showed a mass on the right part of the bladder. For this reason, he was initially diagnosed with bladder cancer. We performed a robot-assisted laparoscopic enucleation of the bladder tumor and low-grade LMS-UB was diagnosed with the histopathological examination. He underwent 5 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery. At 19months postoperative follow-up, the patient had no symptoms, recurrence, or distant metastasis. There is no report on the treatment of LMS-UB with minimally invasive enucleation worldwide. This case provides a new comprehensive treatment method of enucleation combined with adjuvant chemotherapy for early low-grade LMS-UB to reduce complications and improve patients' quality of life after surgery.

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world, and surgery is the mainstage treatment. Urogenital and sexual dysfunction after radical resection of rectal cancer has become an important problem for patients, which seriously affects the quality of life. Some patients give up radical surgery for rectal cancer because of the concerns about sexual and urinary dysfunction. The cause of this problem is intraoperative of injury pelvic autonomic nerve. The preservation of the hypogastric nerve during the surgery is important for the male ejaculation. Pelvic splanchnic nerves are mainly responsible for the male erection. The anatomical origin, distribution, and urogenital function of these two nerves are detailed described in this article. At the same time, this article introduces the classification, key points of the operation and the evaluation of autonomic nerve preservation surgery. With the rapid development of minimally invasive surgery, performing radical surgery for rectal cancer is important, we also need to fully understand the anatomical concept of pelvic autonomic nerves, and apply modern minimally invasive surgical techniques to preserve the patient's pelvic autonomic nerves as well. It is an compulsory course and an important manifestation for the standardization of rectal cancer surgery.
