Prognostic Value of Perioperative Anemia in Neurosurgical‐Oncological Treatment of Spinal Metastases

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
High perioperative morbidity in patients undergoing surgery for spinal metastases highlights the need to identify modifiable risk factors, particularly the underexplored role of anemia. This study assessed associations between perioperative hemoglobin levels and complications, recurrence, and mortality in patients treated surgically for spinal ...
