Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Blood lost from the operating field during pelvic exenteration surgery is suctioned away and usually discarded. For this study the suctioned blood will be collected into an intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) machine. It will be heparinised, and collected into a reservoir, then processed via centrifugation in the ICS machine, then filtered via a leukodepletion filter. No blood will be returned to patients in this study. This study aims to analyse blood samples collected during ICS (before processing, after processing, and after filtering) to assess if it can decrease exposure to cancer cell and bacterial when used during pelvic exenteration surgery.
