Abstract
SUMMARY.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various options for decompression and stabilization interventions in patients with metastatic epidural compression of the spinal cord in the early postoperative period.
MATERIALS AND METHODS. The study included 70 patients with metastatic vertebral tumors, operated on from 01.01.2014 to 31.08.2021. Patients underwent surgical treatment in the amount of decompression and stabilization intervention.
RESULTS.. The presence of significant positive dynamics of the functional state in the group of patients was revealed in the absence of statistically significant dynamics of the neurological status during the 30 days after surgical decompression.
CONCLUSION. Decompression and stabilization interventions in the treatment of metastatic tumor compression of neural structures in the early postoperative period show effectiveness in restoring the functional status of patients, but allow regression of neurological disorders only in a statistically insignificant number of patients.
Supporting agencies: The study was performed without external funding.
