摘要
In this article, we investigated the efficiency of surgery in treating symptomatic spinal metastases from neuroendocrine neoplasms and performed univariate analysis for identification of possible prognostic factors.A retrospective study was performed, enrolling a total of 19 patients who received surgeries in our center for symptomatic spinal metastases from neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN). The Kaplan-Meier method was adopted to estimate overall survival (OS) and recurrence free survival (RFS). Univariate analysis was performed for identification of possible prognostic factors.All patients recruited displayed stable recovery after surgical intervention, with a median OS of 27.3 months (95% Confidence Interval: 16.4-38.1 months) and a median RFS of 23.0 months (95% Confidence Interval: 12.1-33.8 months). Postoperatively, 15 patients exhibited improved neurological function based on the Frankel classification, while 16 patients experienced significant pain relief, with mean visual analog scale (VAS) score decreasing from 7.47 ± 2.32-2.47 ± 1.25 (p < 0.05). Univariate analysis revealed that the presence of visceral metastases (p = 0.034) and extraspinal bone metastases (p = 0.016) are both related with poor prognosis. Additionally, well histologic differentiation (p = 0.010) and administration of postoperative octreotide (p = 0.041) or bisphosphonate (p = 0.023) are all indicators for better outcome.Surgery is an efficient option for treating symptomatic spinal metastases from NEN due to its immediate and assured benefits in pain alleviation, restoration of function and stability reconstruction.
