术前选择性血管栓塞减少脊柱转移瘤术中出血

目的:改变脊柱转移瘤治疗长期以来采用的姑息、保守的治疗方法。手术切除脊柱肿瘤后,给予坚强的内固定,辅以术后放化疗,可延长病人的生命,使病人无痛生存,提高了病人的生活质量。但由于脊柱转移瘤切除术中出血异常多,使手术切除肿瘤椎管减压内固定较难进行,为解决这一问题我们于1991年始用下述方法治疗脊柱转移瘤。方法:应用术前选择性脊柱血管栓塞,肿瘤切除椎管减压,内固定器材固定治疗脊柱转移瘤16例,取得了满意的效果。16例病人均为胸腰段转移瘤,均在术前48h行相应脊柱血管,胸段选择相应肋间动脉,腰段选择相应腰动脉进行栓塞,然后行胸段、胸腰段、腰段前路或后路肿瘤切除,椎管减压、内固定术。结果:16例病人术中出血平均900ml,出血量最少者仅600ml,出血量较未行血管栓塞病例明显减少,术野更为清晰、使术者更易操作;术后病人脊髓及神经根受压症状明显减轻,16例脊髓及脊神经根受压症状明显减轻,16例病人中8例脊髓及脊神经受压症状完全解除。结论:术前脊柱血管栓塞,手术切除肿瘤椎管减压内固定明显减少了术中出血、降低了手术风险、缩短了手术时间,是治疗脊柱转移瘤的安全有效的方法。

Preoperative Embolization Reduces Perioperative Blood Loss of Spinal Metastases

Spinal metastases occupied an half of spinal tumor, then the operative treatment of spinal metastases was difficult for orthopedic surgeon, because of enormous blood loss during operation. Methods: The preoperative elective embolization was used in 16 cases with spinal metastases, then the surgical decompression of spinal metastases and spinal internal fixation were performed after 48 hour of embolization. Results: The average number of blood loss was about 900 ml in 16 cases and spinal cord and nerves root compression was also removed. The paralysis and pain symptom were recovered in 8 cases of 16 cases. Conclusion: The preoperative elective embolization of spinal metastases reduces perioperative blood loss was safe and effective method for treatment spinal metastases.
