Spinal cancer requires multidisciplinary evaluation and surgical intervention. Early surgical treatment combined with other modalities improves outcomes for patients with spinal metastases.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Orthopedic Surgery

Background:

  • Cancer is a leading cause of death, with many patients developing spinal metastases.
  • Spinal involvement necessitates complex evaluation and potential surgical intervention.
  • Advances in understanding cancer and treatment modalities have improved patient survival.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing spinal cancer.
  • To emphasize the role of surgical intervention in treating spinal metastases.
  • To review recent advancements in surgical techniques and adjunctive therapies.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on spinal oncology and surgical management.
  • Analysis of multidisciplinary treatment strategies for spinal metastases.
