Robot-assisted Invasion-controlled Surgery Versus Traditional-open Surgery Against Metastatic Spinal Tumor

Wei Xu60 enrolled

Overview

With significant advances in diagnostic imaging and systemic therapies for oncologic disease, spinal metastasis with neurological dysfunction and mechanical instability has become an indication for surgery. Even if traditional-open surgery was palliative, the treatment of spinal metastasis also carried significant surgical morbidity. Those high morbidity and complication rates may influence the quality of patients with a limited life expectancy. Invasion-controlled surgery was utilized with Robot-assisted surgery approach against symptomatic spinal metastasis. Increasing interest in the potential for improved consistency, complication reduction, and decreased length of hospitalization through robot utilization is evident from the rapid growth of publications seen in recent years. So, the investigators wish to evaluate the advantages of Robot-assisted Invasion-controlled Surgery compared with traditional-open surgery spinal surgery in patients with metastatic spinal cord compression.

Surgical Spinal Decompression of Metastatic Spinal Cord Compression, Minimal Access Versus Open Surgery. A prospective Clinical Trial Purpose To investigate the effect of Robot-assisted Invasion-controlled Surgery compared with traditional-open surgery in the treatment of patients with metastatic spinalcord compression. Hypotheses The group of patient's receiving robot-assisted invasion-controlled surgery will have better improvement in quality after surgery compared to the group that will receive traditional open surgery. The robot-assisted invasion-controlled surgery group will have reduction in per-operative bleeding and less wound complications compered to the group of patients receiving open or traditional surgery.

Robot-assisted Invasion-controlled SurgeryPROCEDURE

The concept of invasion-controlled surgery (ICS) for spinal metastasis has been put forward against the spinal instability and neurological dysfunction of frail patients that might not allowed for radical traditional open surgery including improvements of multidisciplinary dynamic assessments, endovascular detachable balloon embolization, minimal-invasion by using expandable working tubes, percutaneous pedicle screws, and some accurate therapy. ICS could provide immediate stability, deformity correction, and recovery of neurological function.

Traditional-open SurgeryPROCEDURE

This traditionally requires a midline incision, bilateral muscle strip, and multilevel laminectomy to provide adequate access and safe removal of the tumor.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

operative bleeding

It is amount of blood lost during surgery, which is checked by the anesthesiologist and the surgical nurse.

Time frame: Intraoperative

Secondary Outcomes

operation time

Is the time from the beginning of the operation to the end of the incision suture is the total operation time

Time frame: Intraoperative

Intraoperative transfusion volume

That is the amount of intraoperative red blood cell suspension and plasma input and the incidence of blood transfusion.

Time frame: Intraoperative

Intraoperative fluoroscopy dose

The product of intraoperative c-arm fluoroscopy times and single fluoroscopy dose

Time frame: Intraoperative

VAS Scores

It isrecorded at1D-3D after surgery (morning, middle and evening assessment every day, in which the most pain of each day was recorded. All patients were standardized to use the same dose of non-steroidal antipyretic and analgesic drugs; if temporary addition of A tablet analgesics was needed, VAS score before use was recorded and the dosage of A tablet was recorded), 2W after surgery, And 3M (long-term postoperative pain)

Time frame: less than 2 years

Frankel Scores

The Frankel Scale for Spinal Cord Injury That Classifies the Extent of the Neurological/Functional Deficit into Five Grades

Time frame: less than 2 years

Creatine kinase levels

reatine kinase were examined 1 day after operation

Time frame: less than 2 years

myoglobin

myoglobin were examined 1 day after operation

Time frame: less than 2 years

Complications

Postoperative wound complications were observed during the hospital period, including the incidence of wound infection, wound nonunion, wound debridement, and the frequency of massive bleeding, lung infection, urinary tract infection and other complications

Time frame: less than 2 years

QOL Scores

Quality of life (QOL) is a multidimensional concept that measures a person's wellbeing.

Time frame: less than 2 years

resuming time of daily life

Time spent in bed after surgery was recorded

Time frame: less than 2 years

Survival time

Time frame: less than 2 years

ODI scores

The ODI is comprised of 10 questions. The questionnaire asks patients about their ability to manage everyday life and covers intensity of pain, lifting, the ability to care for oneself, ability to walk, the ability to sit, sexual function, ability to stand, social life, sleep quality, and ability to travel. Answers are then scored on a 0-5 scale, zero meaning no disability.
