[The Miles-Thompson-Bricker method of total pelvic exenteration in malignant tumors of the rectum with urinary bladder infiltration].

: The radical method of surgical treatment of malignant rectal neoplasms, total pelvic exenteration by Miles-Thompson-Bricker, was introduced in the Clinic for General and Vascular Surgery of Military Medical Academy in October, 1993, 45 years after the first operation of that kind in the world. This method of surgical treatment was indicated in 3% of our patients with malignant neoplasms of the distal part of rectum that infiltrated the urinary bladder. The life of patients with two stomas though not easy, was prolonged.
