obturator nerve. The nerve can then be mobilized by freeing from the membranous attachments posterior to the nerve. This will then expose the obturator vessels, that can be traced toward the obturator foramen distally. These vessels can be isolated and secured with hemoclips or a vessel­sealing energy device. This will then expose the hypogastric nodal packet lateral to the internal iliac artery and overlying the internal iliac vein. Careful dissection of these lymph nodes will allow for identication of the origin of the obtu­rator vessels, particularly the vein which must be re-secured at its origin. Careful dissection around the internal iliac veins is required to avoid injury to the posteriorly located hypogastric venous channels. When extensive involvement of this region is encountered, ligation and resection of the internal iliac vein may be required as clini­cally indicated.
Branches or the main divisions of the internal iliac artery may likewise be injured during the dissection of the obturator fossa. The arteries are less delicate and therefore less prone to injury, which is best prevented by the development of the paravesical and pararectal spaces and prophy­lactic ligation as clinically indicated.
The external iliac vein is a large bore with a visible and predictable location and course. It may be obscured by retroperitoneal fat or nodal tissue. Prevention of injury to this vein during a pelvic lymphadenectomy requires adequate development of the retroperitoneal spaces, cautious dissection parallel to the wall of the vein, and prudence regarding the risk-benet of attempted removal of densely adherent positive nodes. Laterally located psoas branches will be encountered during dissection of the external iliac vessels. Multiple branches may be present and are paired arterial and venous channels. Securing these with clips or energy ligation may be needed to completely free the external iliac vessels from the surrounding lymphatic tissues.
Injury of the common or external iliac arteries during lymphadenectomy may occur when resec­tion of densely adherent positive nodes is attempted. Weighing risk versus benet is par­ticularly important given the potential loss of blood supply to an extremity. Attempting resec-
tion in such cases begins with securing proximal and distal access (vessel loops) followed by cau­tious, precise arteriolysis. An anterior split and roll technique can facilitate the identication of the vessel wall.
Lymph nodes along the right (versus left) common iliac vein are much more likely to be involved with metastatic disease from gyneco­logic malignancy. Injury of this vein or the infe­rior vena cava (IVC) during lymphadenectomy is commonly the result of shearing of a venule entering these veins, which may be avoided by dissecting in a cephalad to caudal direction and meticulous prophylactic control of the venules as they are encountered. As with the external iliac vein, resection of densely adherent lymph nodes must be approached with great caution. The left common iliac vein is at risk of injury when the left side is approached from the midline and dis­section is misdirected during the development of the left retroperitoneal space. Initial identica­tion of the right common iliac artery and laterally the IVC formation can provide optimal visualiza­tion needed to clear the left common iliac vein. Anatomic relationships are key to understanding this region. The left common iliac vein will travel posterior (dorsal) to the right common iliac artery. The initial clearing of the aortic bifurca­tion and right common iliac artery will allow for the dissection to proceed medially along the right common iliac artery. At this location, the anterior wall of the left common iliac vein can be identi­ed. A careful split and roll of the lymphatics along its anterior wall will facilitate the freeing of the remaining vein. Care should be taken as small venous branches of the left common iliac vein may be present. They can variably arise anteri­orly or along the cephalad groove just medial to the left common iliac artery. Initial Identication of the left common iliac artery helps identify the correct plane of dissection.
Considering the risk/benet ratio based on the biology of the patient’s tumor type, resection of tumor densely adherent to the aorta must be care­fully considered. During paraaortic lymphade­nectomy, the IMA may be avulsed from the aorta. This may occur during mobilization and retrac­tion of the sigmoid colon.

Management

When hemorrhage from the internal iliac veins is encountered, gentle tissue handling is important in order to prevent further injury to the plexus and exacerbation of the problem. Pressure (judi­ciously applied), hemostatic agents, sutures and clips may all be useful. The obturator nerve and the lumbosacral nerve plexus are in harm’s way.
Injury to internal iliac arterial branches is more easily identied than those of the veins but with the same issue of limited surgical accessibil­ity. However, such injuries are more easily controlled.
A small injury to one of the major veins (less than 1–2mm) is likely to require pressure only, with or without hemostatic agents. Some advanced hemostatic agents are now available that may at least temporarily control signicant bleeding. It is important to know which agents are available in the operating room and have familiarity with their use. Have patience and apply gentle pressure for 10–15minutes without trying to explore the area for bleeding. Blind dissection or attempts to
suture the area without control will lead to exces­sive hemorrhage and the potential to make the injury worse. With a larger defect, suture repair will be necessary. At times this can be accom­plished expeditiously during control by gentle pressure and avoidance of further trauma to the vein. Temporary closure of the hole with Allis clamps or isolation of the hole from the venous stream are useful techniques. Proximal and distal control with vessel loops or even vascular clamps may be necessary. Suture repair should be perpen­dicular to the lumen if possible, to avoid constric­tion (Fig. 32.2). Caution should be taken to include an adequate bite of the vein and to avoid excessive tension on the vein when tying the suture to prevent tearing the vein and creating a larger defect. It is important to generously hydrate the monolament suture (5–0 or 6–0) and the sur­geons’ hands when tying knots to prevent break­ing the suture. Exposure and visualization of the defect is critical when repairing venous injuries and calling for experienced help should be con­sidered before attempting repair. Skillful place­ment of the suction cannot be underestimated. Our experience suggests that these patients are at high risk for subsequent deep vein thrombosis [6,
7]. Ligation of the vein is a lifesaving measure
when conservative efforts fail [8]. Distal and proximal control as well as repair are approached

with caution to avoid exacerbating a tear of the rather delicate vein wall. f direct repair of the vein is likely to cause stenosis then patch repair can be considered with autogenous saphenous vein or if necessary bovine pericardium. The patch should be sewn in longitudinally. It is typical to extend the venotomy to allow adequate caliber to the vein. Patch repair should be started in the proxi­mal and distal ends with 5–0 or 6–0 polypropyl­ene sutures. Bring each suture to the middle of the patch and tie to the opposite end.
Injury of the external or common iliac artery or aorta during lymphadenectomy requires immedi­ate focal or proximal and distal control, followed by suture repair. Surgical repair of a focal arterial injury can be easily achieved with simple trans­verse interrupted stitches. Care should be taken to include the intima and adventitia to avoid delayed pseudoaneurysm formation. If possible a double needle 5–0 monolament suture placed from

intima to adventitia under direct vision provides assurance of a durable repair. Placing multiple individual sutures prior to tying the knots rather than a running suture is recommended for larger injuries. For larger defects (>50% of the lumen) patch angioplasty should be considered to avoid vessel stenosis and occlusion. With avulsion of the IMA, it may be possible to secure the stump with clips or suture. With complete avulsion there will be a signicant (2mm) hole in the aorta with rapid and life-threatening hemorrhage.
Immediate control and suture repair are criti­cal. Partial aortic occlusion can be obtained with a Satinsky or similar vascular clamp (Fig.32.3). Direct pressure should control bleeding until ade­quate help can be called in. Loss of the IMA at this level is rarely of consequence regarding intestinal blood supply due to extensive collateral circulation from the celiac, SMA and internal iliac arteries. If the colon side of the transected

artery demonstrates brisk back-bleeding then good collateral circulation is likely. If the colon exhibits evidence of ischemia after IMA ligation, the IMA should be reconstructed either directly or with a vascular bypass. Assessment of the blood supply of the colon with intravenous injec­tion of indocyanine green dye and intraoperative uorescence angiography may be considered if this is available.

Lymphedema

Background

Factors that increase the likelihood of lymph­edema subsequent to PPLND include the extent of lymph node dissection, removal of lymph nodes lateral to the external iliac vessels, removal of lymph nodes distal to the circumex iliac vein (suprainguinal), and prior or planned postopera­tive external beam pelvic radiation therapy [911].

Prevention

Limiting the extent of pelvic lymphadenectomy, particularly by conning dissection to the senti­nel lymph nodes, has the greatest impact on the prevention of subsequent lower extremity lymph­edema [1214]. When a more complete pelvic lymphadenectomy is indicated, dependent upon the clinical ndings, the risk of lymphedema is reduced by avoiding disruption of the lymphatics lateral to the external iliac artery and distal to the circumex iliac vein [14]. In addition, non­closure of the pelvic peritoneum after pelvic lymphadenectomy has been shown to reduce the incidence of lower extremity lymphedema [15]. Lymphedema is one of the risks when weighing the risk versus benet of adjuvant external beam pelvic radiation therapy [15]. Prior to and subse­quent to surgery, well-tted support stockings may provide some additional level of prevention. It is also worth mentioning that there have been
reports of early successes of microsurgery and immediate lymphatic reconstruction in lymph­edema prevention for breast cancer patients [16].

Recognition

Unilateral or bilateral lower extremity edema will generally present early in the postoperative course and progress over time. Deep vein throm­bosis must be ruled out and other causes of lower extremity edema (bilateral) should be consid­ered, such as chronic venous insufciency, uid overload, and congestive heart failure.

Management

Mild lymphedema should be managed proactively with leg elevation while resting and well- tted support stockings while ambulatory [17]. Avoidance of even minor trauma to the extremity is important due to the susceptibility to lymphan­gitis. Prompt recognition and management of lymphangitis reduces the likelihood of sepsis and exacerbation of the lymphedema. For more severe cases, referral to a lymphedema specialty clinic should be considered. Additional measures that are of potential benet include lymphatic mas­sage, wrapping of the extremity, and an intermit­tent compression device. Microsurgical lymphatic bypass has been shown to result in modest improvement in selected patients although this approach is not widely available [16, 17].

Nerve Injury

Background

Nerves that are most commonly injured during a PPLND are the obturator nerve and the genitofemo­ral nerve [1820]. Infrequently the sciatic nerve roots may be injured, most commonly from sutures used for controlling deep bleeding from the hypogastric venous plexus. With an open procedure, injury of the femoral nerve may occur from compression by the lateral blade of a self- retaining retractor.

Prevention

Identication and dissection of the lymphatic bundle away from the obturator nerve should be

the initial step during resection of the obturator fossa lymph nodes. A systematic dissection from anterior to posterior will facilitate optimal visual­ization of the obturator nerve while clearing all lymphatic tissues from the fossa. Initial control of the small lateral perforating vessels from the obturator vessels laterally to the obturator inter­nus muscle will allow for minimizing early bleeding that would otherwise obscure visualiza­tion of the nerve. Avoid excessive traction on the nerve during this dissection.
The genitofemoral nerve or a branch of it may be difcult to identify even with normal anatomy, particularly when obscured by retroperitoneal fat or positive lymph nodes. Early identication, avoidance of dissection lateral to the external iliac artery, and dissection with minimal manipu­lation away from the nerve when necessary are all measures that may prevent injury to this nerve.
When utilizing a self-retaining retractor, the lateral blade should be placed above the psoas muscle—particularly at the caudal location where the femoral nerve becomes supercial as it exits under the inguinal ligament. Overly tight­ening these retractor blades should also be avoided, and period loosening during a long case is a good practice.

Recognition

Obturator neuropathy is readily recognized by the development postoperatively of unilateral adductor muscle weakness. Numbness or paresthesia of the medial thigh may also be present. Injury of the genitofemoral nerve pres­ents postoperatively as numbness or paresthesia of the skin overlying the upper anterior thigh. Femoral nerve injury may, unfortunately, be recognized after the patient falls with her rst attempt at postoperative ambulation. Flexion of the thigh and extension of the knee will be compromised.

Management

Following intraoperative recognition of partial or complete transection of the obturator nerve, reap­proximation of the epineurium with ne suture is considered (Fig.32.4). Wrapping the repair with a local neural regenerative agent may be of some value as well, but the cornerstone of management is physical therapy. There is no specic management for genitofemoral nerve injury except reassurance that the majority of these will resolve over time.

Femoral nerve injury is managed by physical therapy, and complete recovery occurs in the majority of cases within 3 to 6months.

Ureteral Injury

Background

The pelvic ureter crosses and lies against the bifurcation of the common iliac artery and remains in close proximity to the major pelvic vasculature up to the ureteric tunnel (Fig.32.1). During pelvic lymphadenectomy, it is at risk of injury during this entire course [21]. Likewise, the abdominal ureter travels just lateral to the inferior vena cava on the right side and just lat­eral to the aorta on the left side. During a left paraaortic lymphadenectomy approached from the midline, the left ureter may be difcult to identify and keep out of harm’s way due to its somewhat hidden position dorsal to the sigmoid colon mesentery. The ureteral blood supply is segmental, coming from multiple vessels from the aorta, renal, common, and internal iliac arter­ies. The blood travels cephalad and caudad along the ureter via ne arterioles located in the peri­ureteral adventitial sheath. Careful manipulation of the ureter with a noncrushing technique is important to minimize damage to this collateral circulation within the ureteral wall.

Prevention

Identify and mobilize the ureters prior to begin­ning the lymphadenectomy, and keep them retracted out of the operative eld during the dis­section. When unusual difculty is encountered (left paraaortic nodes in obese patients, grossly positive nodes), consideration can be given to pre-procedural stenting or the use of ureteral ICG dye in concert with a near-infrared camera.

Recognition

Continual focus on the operative eld throughout the procedure and careful inspection of the ure-
ters immediately upon completion will usually allow intraoperative recognition. Additional adjuvant methods to facilitate intraoperative rec­ognition of ureteral injury include administration of intravenous dye (such as uorescein) that is excreted by the urinary tract (allowing for identi­cation of a gross leak into the peritoneal cavity or lack of efux from a ureteral orice visualized cystoscopically.

Management

Management of ureteral injury is covered in Chap. 17.
Disruption oftheMesentery

Background

The mesentery of the sigmoid colon may inad­vertently be damaged during paraaortic lymphad­enectomy, especially from the midline approach as the surgeon attempts to gain exposure to the left paraaortic and common iliac lymph nodes.

Prevention

Proceed cautiously when exposing the left com­mon iliac and paraaortic region from the midline and when retracting in a cephalad direction under the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA). Misdirected dissection into the sigmoid colon mesentery may be avoided by following the right common iliac artery to the bifurcation and then exposing the left common iliac artery.

Recognition

Laceration or avulsion of the IMA will result in hemorrhage, which may be severe. Damage to the sigmoid colon mesentery may only be recog­nized after re-directing an initial incorrect pane of dissection. Inspection of the tissues that have been disrupted may reveal damage to mesenteric blood vessels supplying the sigmoid colon.

Management

Management of injury to the IMA has already been addressed. Damage to the sigmoid colon mesentery requires careful clinical assessment of the adequacy of the remaining blood supply. In the unlikely event of loss of viability, surgical resection is required.
Duodenum

Background

The third portion of the duodenum begins to emerge from the retroperitoneum and typically
crosses the aorta at about the level of the IMA (Fig.32.5). The level of crossing is variable and may be as low as the common iliac vessels. During exposure of the retroperitoneum to access the common iliac and paraaortic lymph nodes (especially on the right side), the duode­num may not be recognized or otherwise inad­vertently injured [22].

Prevention

As lymphadenectomy proceeds cephalad to the aorta, it is important to recognize the crossing of the duodenum and mobilize it out of harm’s wa y.

M. Homan et al.

Recognition

Spillage of bilious material during dissection of the paraaortic region should prompt an immediate search for the source. Assuming the remainder of the bowel has been kept out of the operative eld, injury to the duodenum is likely.

Management

Mobilize the defect in the duodenum so that the full extent of the injury can be assessed and prop­erly repaired. Assuming a small hole on the cau­dal side of the bowel, repair proceeds as with any enterotomy. The placement of a drain is consid­ered depending on the clinical scenario.

Arterial Embolization

Background

During the course of a pelvic lymphadenectomy, manipulation of an arteriosclerotic external iliac artery may rarely result in the dislodging of a plaque, which embolizes and obstructs the distal arterial supply to a portion of the lower extremity [23].

Prevention

When performing a lymphadenectomy in a patient with known or suspected arteriosclerotic vascular disease, manipulation of the major arter­ies should be avoided to the extent possible.

Recognition

Very early in the postoperative course, the patient may develop evidence of progressive loss of via­bility of the lower extremity.

Management

This is a medical emergency requiring immediate evaluation by a vascular surgeon.
Lymphocyst andChylous Ascites

Background

During PPLND, lymphatic channels are invari­ably disrupted. Leakage of lymphatic uid is gen­erally self-limited and of no clinical consequence. Small areas of trapped lymphatic uid or low­volume chylous ascites are common and require no intervention. A lymphocyst may become large and problematic and require intervention. This is more likely in patients who have also received radiation therapy or have lymph node metastases. Likewise, chylous ascites may persist in large vol­umes and be clinically problematic.

Prevention

Avoiding closure of the peritoneum following pelvic lymphadenectomy has been shown to reduce the incidence of a subsequent lymphocyst [15]. Meticulous ligation or clipping of afferent and efferent lymphatic channels may reduce the likelihood of these complications. The low likeli­hood of a problematic lymphocyst or chylous ascites and the prevalence of performing lymph­adenectomy with an energy device, particularly with minimally invasive surgery, are among the factors that may dissuade surgeons from these methods. The surgical approaches described ear­lier to reduce the likelihood of lymphedema, especially limiting the extent of dissection, apply here as well. However, randomized trial data in bladder cancer patients undergoing limited ver­sus extended pelvic lymphadenectomy have found relatively small added morbidity associ­ated with the more extensive dissection [24]. Only a modest increase in lymphoceles requiring drainage was observed.
32 Pelvic andParaaortic Lymphadenectomy

Management

Small asymptomatic lymphocysts are common following lymphadenectomy and are often seen on imaging done for unrelated reasons. Indications for drainage of a lymphocyst include the development of deep vein thrombosis, attrib­utable ureteral obstruction or lymphedema, pain, or secondary infection. An infected lymphocyst is managed as any abscess. Following drainage of a lymphocyst, a drain should be left in place until reimaging suggests resolution. When persistent or recurrent, a sclerosing agent or marsupializa­tion is considered [25].
Chylous ascites is often self-limited and resolves spontaneously or with conservative management (diet modication +/ Somatostatin, paracentesis) [26]. If these measures fail lym­phangiography with embolization is performed, and very occasionally surgery is considered.
