ABSTRACT
Mexico has seen an increase in cancer prevalence in its entire population as well as particular age ranges, predominantly the
older segment. The most frequently reported pelvic cancers in Mexico are cervical, endometrial, bladder, prostate, rectum, and
anal canal. Approximately 80% of the population diagnosed with pelvic cancers present with locally advanced tumors and require
concomitant chemoradiotherapy, sequential chemoradiotherapy, or radiotherapy alone. The toxicity of any of these treatment
modalities may be manifested as intestinal injury, a significant problem that can compromise the response to treatment, the
patient’s nutritional state, quality of life, and survival. In this article, we will approach key aspects in nutrition as well as the
epidemiological characteristics and toxicities in patients affected by these pelvic tumors.
