Application of contralateral osteotomy for the en bloc resection of paraspinal and spinal tumours: a report of three cases. Br J Neurosurg 2022:1-7. [PMID: 35587144 DOI: 10.1080/02688697.2022.2076809] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
We herein report the effectiveness of contralateral osteotomy of the pedicle and posterolateral elements for en bloc resection (COPPER) of paraspinal and spinal tumours. This surgical method allows for complete resection of the localized tumour in the lateral posterior lesion without removing the entire vertebral body, as in total en bloc spondylectomy. Complete resection of paraspinal and spinal tumours is challenging for spinal surgeons because of anatomical complexities. Although the COPPER method has been introduced as a less invasive surgical procedure for wide resection of spinal tumours, no studies have reported the usefulness of this technique. We identified three patients with paraspinal or spinal tumours who underwent wide resection using the COPPER method and reviewed their clinical, radiological, and pathological outcomes. In all cases, we resected the spinal and paraspinal tumours extending to the anterior column and extravertebral component using the modified COPPER method. All patients underwent en bloc resection with a negative margin. We report three cases of spinal and paraspinal tumours extending to the anterior column and extravertebral component.

Abstract
Bleeding in spine surgery is a common occurrence but when bleeding is uncontrolled the consequences can be severe due to the potential for spinal cord compression and damage to the central nervous system. There are many factors that influence bleeding during spine surgery including patient factors and those related to the type of surgery and the surgical approach to bleeding. There are a range of methods that can be employed to both reduce the risk of bleeding and achieve hemostasis, one of which is the adjunct use of hemostatic agents. Hemostatic agents are available in a variety of forms and materials and with considerable variation in cost, but specific evidence to support their use in spine surgery is sparse. A literature review was conducted to identify the pre-, peri-, and postsurgical considerations around bleeding in spine surgery. The review generated a set of recommendations that were discussed and ratified by a wider expert group of spine surgeons. The results are intended to provide a practical guide to the selection of hemostats for specific bleeding situations that may be encountered in spine surgery.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Broad narrative review. OBJECTIVE To review and summarize the current literature on guidelines, outcomes, techniques and indications surrounding multiple modalities of minimizing blood loss in spine surgery. METHODS A thorough review of peer-reviewed literature was performed on the guidelines, outcomes, techniques, and indications for multiple modalities of minimizing blood loss in spine surgery. RESULTS There is a large body of literature that provides a consensus on guidelines regarding the appropriate timing of discontinuation of anticoagulation, aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and herbal supplements prior to surgery. Additionally, there is a more heterogenous discussion the utility of preoperative autologous blood donation facilitated by erythropoietin and iron supplementation for healthy patients slated for procedures with high anticipated blood loss and for whom allogeneic transfusion is likely. Intraoperative maneuvers available to minimize blood loss include positioning and maintaining normothermia. Tranexamic acid (TXA), bipolar sealer electrocautery, and topical hemostatic agents, and hypotensive anesthesia (mean arterial pressure (MAP) <65 mm Hg) should be strongly considered in cases with larger exposures and higher anticipated blood loss. There is strong level 1 evidence for the use of TXA in spine surgery as it reduces the overall blood loss and transfusion requirements. CONCLUSION As the volume and complexity of spinal procedures rise, intraoperative blood loss management has become a pivotal topic of research within the field. There are many tools for minimizing blood loss in patients undergoing spine surgery. The current literature supports combining techniques to use a cost- effective multimodal approach to minimize blood loss in the perioperative period.

Abstract
Background: Efficient hemostasis during lumbar surgery (LS) is associated with better perioperative outcomes. Flowable gelatin hemostatic matrix (FGHM) is a new type of absorbable hemostatic agent, which is effective to control bleeding during spinal surgery. This study aimed to assess the impact of FGHM on perioperative outcomes and hospital costs associated with LS. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed medical and billing records of patients who underwent LS for spinal degenerative disease in a Chinese tertiary care hospital from 2014 to 2016. The identified patients were further stratified into a FGHM group (n = 108) (using the combination of FGHM and gelatin sponge) and a historical control group (using oxidized cellulose and/or collagen, n = 82) for the adjusted comparisons of the perioperative outcomes using a propensity score matching method. Multiple generalized linear regression was conducted to assess the impact of using FGHM on total hospitalization costs. Results: Comparisons of 64 propensity score matched pairs showed a significantly lower blood transfusion rate (34.4% vs 64.1%, p = 0.005), lower blood transfusion volume (182.7 ± 312.4 vs 301.3 ± 281.0 mL, p = 0.045), reduced post-surgery drainage tube placement rate (82.8% vs 93.8%, p = 0.046), and shorter post-operative days on antibiotics (6.0 ± 2.6 vs 7.1 ± 2.4 days, p = 0.010) in the FGHM group. Although with a relatively high acquisition price, the use of FGHM for hemostasis in LS did not increase the total hospitalization costs (coefficient = -0.001, p = 0.972). Conclusions: The use of FGHM in LS improved perioperative outcomes related to hemostatic effects without increasing overall hospital costs in a real-world hospital setting.
