Role of pelvimetry in predicting surgical outcomes and morbidity in rectal cancer surgery: A retrospective analysis
MRI-based pelvimetry may be valuable in predicting surgical difficulty and morbidity in rectal cancer surgery, as indicated by the PCI. The observed correlation between low PCI and increased surgical morbidity suggests the potential importance of a preoperative MRI-based pelvimetric evaluation. In contrast, CT-based pelvimetry did not show significant differences in predicting surgical outcomes or cancer recurrence, indicating that the utility of pelvimetry alone may be limited in these respects.
