Extensive laboratory and roentgenographic evaluation and a scalene node biopsy demonstrated no evidence of metastatic disease. On June 27, 1972, a total pelvic exenteration was performed. On the first postoperative day, a right subclavian catheter was inserted to facilitate fluid and caloric replacement.
