Vascular surgeon role in removing abdominal or pelvic masses
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at how a vascular surgeon (a blood vessel specialist) can help when removing masses in the back of the abdomen or pelvis. If you have a mass that touches blood vessels and you need surgery, this trial may be a good fit for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a mass in the retroperitoneal space (the area in the back of your belly or pelvis) that involves blood vessels and needs to be removed with surgery.
- Your surgery plan includes a vascular surgeon (a blood vessel specialist) helping during the operation.
- You are willing to give written permission (informed consent) to take part in the study.
- You are 18 years old or older.

This trial is looking at how a vascular surgeon can help during surgery for tumors that involve blood vessels. It may help people with bone or soft tissue tumors that are close to or wrapped around major blood vessels.
This trial tests a mechanical device that removes blood clots from deep veins in the pelvis or leg. It may be an option if you have a large clot and are at low risk for bleeding.
This study looks at how well surgery works when advanced or recurrent gynecologic cancers involve major blood vessels. Patients may need part of a blood vessel removed or repaired along with the tumor.
This trial is for women with early-stage endometrial cancer who are having surgery to stage the cancer. It looks at how a special type of lymph node (sentinel node) in the pelvis is related to a surface vein, to help guide the surgery.
This trial uses 3D computer models of children's tumors to help surgeons plan and perform safer operations. It is for children with tumors in the pelvic area (lower belly) or retroperitoneal area (deep in the back of the belly) who need an MRI or CT scan before surgery.
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery (using small incisions) to remove a pelvic tumor that has come back after treatment for vaginal or cervical cancer. It aims to see if this approach can safely remove the recurrence while avoiding more extensive surgery.
