ABSTRACT

Objective: Observe whether a microsurgical gross total removal (GTR) of a spinal nerve sheath tumors (SNSTs) is safe and decreases the tumor recurrence. Method: We identify 30 patients with 44 SNSTs. Results: We operated upon 15 males and 15 females patients; mean age 40 years. GTR was achieved in 29 (96.6%) instances. Surgical mortality was 3.3% and the recurrence rate was 3.3%. The median follow-up time was 6.2 years. Conclusion: The surgical approach used in this group of patients afford that the great majority of tumors could be totally removed with low mortality and low recurrence rates, proving to be safe and effective. .


Objetivo: Observar se a ressecção microcirúrgica completa dos shwannomas ou neurofibromas raquianos é uma técnica segura e efetiva. Método: Foram operados 30 pacientes com 44 schwannomas ou neurofibromas intrarraquiano. Resultados: A remoção total da lesão ocorreu em 27 casos (96.6%). A taxa de mortalidade cirúrgica observada nesta série foi de 3.3%. O tempo médio de seguimento foi de 6.2 anos. Conclusão: A estratégia microcirúrgica empregada com esses pacientes propiciou a remoção total dos tumores na maioria dos pacientes, com baixa mortalidade e recidiva tumoral, mostrando ser segura e efetiva. .
