Abstract
Introduction Painful lumbar spinal disorders represent a leading cause of disability in the US and worldwide. Interventional treatments for lumbar disorders are an effective treatment for the pain and disability from low back pain. Although many established and emerging interventional procedures are currently available, there exists a need for a defined guideline for their appropriateness, effectiveness, and safety. Objective The ASPN Back Guideline was developed to provide clinicians the most comprehensive review of interventional treatments for lower back disorders. Clinicians should utilize the ASPN Back Guideline to evaluate the quality of the literature, safety, and efficacy of interventional treatments for lower back disorders. Methods The American Society of Pain and Neuroscience (ASPN) identified an educational need for a comprehensive clinical guideline to provide evidence-based recommendations. Experts from the fields of Anesthesiology, Physiatry, Neurology, Neurosurgery, Radiology, and Pain Psychology developed the ASPN Back Guideline. The world literature in English was searched using Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, BioMed Central, Web of Science, Google Scholar, PubMed, Current Contents Connect, Scopus, and meeting abstracts to identify and compile the evidence (per section) for back-related pain. Search words were selected based upon the section represented. Identified peer-reviewed literature was critiqued using United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) criteria and consensus points are presented. Results After a comprehensive review and analysis of the available evidence, the ASPN Back Guideline group was able to rate the literature and provide therapy grades to each of the most commonly available interventional treatments for low back pain. Conclusion The ASPN Back Guideline represents the first comprehensive analysis and grading of the existing and emerging interventional treatments available for low back pain. This will be a living document which will be periodically updated to the current standard of care based on the available evidence within peer-reviewed literature.

World J Clin Cases 2022; 10:7944-7949. [PMID: 36158475 PMCID: PMC9372846 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v10.i22.7944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 05/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/26/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PTED) is a procedure that is commonly used to treat lumbar disc herniation and spinal stenosis. Despite its less invasiveness, this surgery is rarely used to treat spinal metastases. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) has been utilized to treat lumbar vertebral body metastases but it has not proven useful in treating sciatic patients.
CASE SUMMARY A 68-year-old woman presented with low back pain and radicular symptoms. She couldn't straighten her legs because of severe pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed a mass lesion in the lung and bone destruction in the L4 vertebrae. The biopsy of the lung lesion revealed adenocarcinoma and the biopsy for L4 vertebrae revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma. PTED paired with PVP was performed on the patient due to the patient's poor overall physical state and short survival time. Transcatheter arterial embolization of vertebral tumors was performed before surgical resection to reduce excessive blood loss during the operation. The incision was scaled up with the TESSY technology. The pain was obviously relieved following the operation and no serious complications occurred. Postoperative CT showed that the decompression around the nerve root was successful, polymethyl methacrylate filling was satisfactory and the tumor tissue around the nerve root was obviously removed. During the 1-year follow-up period, the patient was in a stable condition.
CONCLUSION PTED in combination with PVP is an effective and safe treatment for Lumbar single-level Spinal Column metastases with radicular symptoms. Because of the small sample size and short follow-up time, the long-term clinical efficacy of this method needs to be further confirmed.

[PMID: 34007336 PMCID: PMC8120652 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2021.10159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2020] [Accepted: 03/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present manuscript was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for the relief of osteoblastic spinal metastases pain. PVP was performed in 39 consecutive patients with 82 osteoblastic metastatic spinal vertebras. 19 vertebras had pathologic compressive fracture and the other 63 vertebras had no compressive fracture with obvious imaging abnormalities. The ages of the patients ranged from 40 to 77 years with a mean age of 58.5±9.0 years. Visual analog scale (VAS) and QLQ-BM22 score were used to evaluate pain and quality of life at 2 days pre-operation and at 1 week and 3 months post-operation. Among all 82 vertebras, 35 vertebras had been injected bilaterally and the other 47 vertebras unilaterally. The amount of cement injected per lesion ranged from 0.5 to 4.5 ml with a mean volume of 1.6±0.8 ml. Cement deposition in all lesions was uniform. The patients were followed up from 3 to 15.5 months with a mean follow up time of 5.6±3.4 months. Mean VAS score declined significantly from preoperative 4.3±2.4 to postoperative 3.0±1.7 at 1 week and 2.4±2.0 at 3 months after the procedure (P=0.001). Mean QLQ-BM22 score declined significantly from preoperative 49.1±12.3 to postoperative 42.4±9.5 at 1 week and 39.6±10.4 at 3 months after the procedure (P<0.001). Extraosseous cement leakage occurred in 21 vertebras of 13 cases and in 1 case into the thoracic vertebra canal without causing any clinical complications. No further procedures were performed after leakage. PVP is an effective treatment for painful osteoblastic spinal metastases. It can relieve pain, reduce disability and improve function. The main complications are bone cement leakage and incomplete pain relief.

Percutaneous Transpedicular Fixation by PEEK Polymer Implants Combined with Cementoplasty for Vertebral Compression Fractures: A Pilot Study. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2021; 44:642-646. [PMID: 33388874 DOI: 10.1007/s00270-020-02719-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2020] [Accepted: 11/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the feasibility and safety of percutaneous transpedicular fixation by PEEK polymer implants and cementoplasty for vertebral compression fracture (VCF). MATERIALS AND METHODS From February 2019 to December 2019, 6 consecutive patients (3 men and 3 women; mean age 55 ± 8 years; range 40-64 years) who had percutaneous transpedicular fixation with cementoplasty for the treatment of VCF (5 tumor lesions, 1 traumatic) were included. The procedure duration, length of hospital stay, and complications were reported. Visual analog scale (VAS) and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) for pain and disability were assessed before and 2 months after the procedure. RESULTS The mean procedure duration was 74 ± 47 min (range 20-140 min). The median length of hospital stay was 3 days (range 2-63) after the procedure. Only minor adverse events were reported (4 asymptomatic cement leakages) but no severe complications. No cases of procedural site fracture during follow-up were noted (median 198 days; range 78-238 days). The mean VAS score decreased from 6.2 ± 1.8 mm (median 6 mm; range 4-9 mm) before the procedure to 1.7 ± 2.1 mm (median 1; range 0-5 mm) after the procedure. The ODI decreased from 36 ± 14% (range 18-54%) before the procedure to 23 ± 10% (range 11-30%) at 2-months follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Percutaneous transpedicular fixation of VCF by PEEK implants with cementoplasty appears feasible and safe.

Abstract
Background To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of bone cement combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in the treatment of spinal metastases. Methods The medical records of patients with spinal metastatic tumor admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on different surgical methods, the patients were divided into groups A (treated with RFA combined with bone cement) and B (treated with bone cement only). Group A included 35 patients with 47 segments of diseased vertebral bodies. Group B consisted of 52 patients with 78 vertebral segments. Pain, quality of life score, vertebra height, bone cement leakage, postoperative tumor recurrence, and complications were assessed 3 days and 1 and 6 months after surgery. Results All the patients had smooth operation without paraplegia, spinal cord injury, and perioperative death. Visual analogue scales (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores of the two groups significantly improved 3 days and 1 month after surgery compared with those before surgery (P < 0.05), but no significant difference was observed between the two groups (P > 0.05). Six months after surgery, the VAS and ODI scores of patients in group A were lower than those in group B, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). The postoperative vertebral body height of the two groups significantly increased compared with that before surgery, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, no significant difference was observed between the two groups (P > 0.05). Postoperative bone cement permeability in group A was 6.4%, and postoperative tumor recurrence rate was 11.4%. The permeability of bone cement in group B was 20.5%, and the tumor recurrence rate was 30.8%. The bone cement permeability and tumor recurrence rate in group A were lower than those in group B, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusions Bone cement combined with RFA for the treatment of spinal metastases can achieve good efficacy, desirable analgesic effect, low incidence of complications, small surgical trauma, and high safety. The proposed method has the value of clinical popularization and application.
