This report presents our experience in performing prolapse repair after anterior exenteration. The patient had a history of invasive bladder cancer and underwent a robotically assisted laparoscopic anterior exenteration with extended bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection and creation of an Indiana pouch continent diversion. Her pelvic organ prolapse progressed over time despite multiple pessary fittings. She eventually decided to proceed with pelvic reconstructive surgery 6 years after her cancer surgery. She underwent a successful vaginal native tissue reconstruction with uterosacral ligament suspension, posterior repair and reconstruction of the anterior compartment. The patient has been followed for 16 months without recurrent prolapse. Vaginal native tissue pelvic reconstruction is feasible in a patient with a history of pelvic exenteration.

Anterior exenteration is a radical surgical option for treating locally advanced pelvic malignancies when alternative treatments are deemed ineffective or inappropriate. Due to its nature as an ablative treatment, interference with supportive structures of the pelvic floor can result in pelvic organ prolapse. A 70-year-old woman presented with prolapse after radical cystectomy and following two unsuccessful attempts at Le Fort colpocleisis, the second of which was further complicated by rupture of the vaginal cuff.

Purpose: To examine the anatomy of the orbital septum posterior to the medial canthal tendon area.
Materials And Methods: We performed 3 anatomical dissections in the present study. The first one was a microscopic study in which exenterated specimens from 6 Japanese cadavers (age from 77 to 93 years at death) were cut inferno-horizontally, including the Müller muscle, medial rectus pulley, and lateral rectus pulley, and stained with Masson's trichrome.

Background: Postoperative perineal hernia (PH) is an uncommon complication after abdominoperineal resection (APR). Different techniques have been described in literature and there is no consensus regarding the optimal repair approach. In the present study, we reported a case of a laparoscopic combined repair of a perineal hernia and abdominal parastomal hernia (PSH) with mesh.

Background: Pelvic mucosal melanomas, including anorectal and urogenital melanomas, are rare and aggressive with a median overall survival of up to 20 months. Pelvic mucosal melanomas behave differently to its cutaneous counterparts and presents late with locoregional disease, making pelvic exenteration its only curative surgical option.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the survival outcomes post pelvic exenteration in pelvic mucosal melanomas at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital.

Purpose: We describe a case of metastatic conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) presenting as an infectious sclerokeratouveitis in a patient with autoimmune disease.
Observations: A 63-year-old Caucasian female presented to the cornea service with a raised perilimbal scleral infiltrate, hypopyon, and corneal perforation concerning for infectious necrotizing sclerokeratoveitis. She had an ocular history of a recurrent "pyogenic granuloma" and her medical history was notable for well-controlled systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis.
