Esketamine combined with pregabalin on acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing resection of spinal neoplasms: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background Perioperative pain management is one of the most challenging issues for patients with spinal neoplasms. Inadequate postoperative analgesia usually leads to severe postsurgical pain, which could cause patients to suffer from many other related ...

Radiologic-Pathologic Correlation of Pediatric and Adolescent Spinal Neoplasms: Part 2, Intradural Extramedullary Spinal Neoplasms [PDF]
The purpose of this article is to review the neuroimaging findings of intradural extramedullary spinal tumors in the pediatric and adolescent population. The differential diagnosis for lesions in this location is limited and can be further narrowed with knowledge of specific imaging characteristics.This article reviews the radiologic and pathologic ...

Construction, Validation, and Visualization of Two Web-Based Nomograms for Predicting Overall Survival and Cancer-Specific Survival in Elderly Patients with Primary Osseous Spinal Neoplasms. [PDF]
Background Primary osseous spinal neoplasms (POSNs) are the rarest tumor type in the spine. Very few studies have presented data on elderly patients with POSNs specifically.

Minimally Invasive Resection of Intradural-Extramedullary Spinal Neoplasms
Spinal intradural-extramedullary neoplasms are uncommon lesions that usually cause pain or neurological deficit secondary to neural compression. Traditional treatment of these tumors includes open laminectomy with intradural resection. We describe an alternative minimally invasive surgical technique in a consecutive series of patients undergoing ...

Strategy for the treatment of patients with spinal neoplasms [PDF]
Progress in oncological therapy within the last decade has enhanced the survival time of patients suffering from tumorous osteolyses of the spine. While the necessity of surgical intervention is often settled by acute clinical symptoms, the extent of surgery is certainly co-determined by the patient's expectations and the time of survival to be ...

Sequestrated Lumbar Disc Herniation Mimicking Spinal Neoplasm [PDF]
Sequestered disc fragments do not have indistinctive features and often share the clinical and radiological presentation as spinal neoplasms making their diagnosis and treatment a clinical challenge. We report a rare case of sequestered lumbar disc fragment at the level of L2-L3 in a 70-year-old male who presented to the ER complaining of six years ...

Microsurgical resection of a giant thoracolumbosacral Schwannoma in an adolescent with intraoperative neuromonitoring and anatomical laminoplasty reconstruction [PDF]
Spinal schwannomas represent benign neoplasms arising from spinal nerve root sheaths, predominantly occurring in the cauda equina region. By reviewing this case and literature, our aim was to highlight the diagnostic and therapeutic considerations in ...
