Abstract:
The authors investigated the postoperative quality of life in 89 patients with metastatic spinal tumors. As the results of our study, it was found that spinal surgery could maintain or improve the quality of life, and then most of patients with poor quality of life had multiple spine/bone metastasis or brain/spinal cord metastasis.
