Research progress in minimally invasive treatment of spinal metastatic carcinoma / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

With the development of modem tumor diagnostic techniques and therapies, the survival rate of malignant tumor has been remarkably increased. With the increase in survival rate of cancer-beating patients, the chance of tumor metastasis is elevated. Minimally invasive treatment provides a new strategy to the therapy of spinal metastatic carcinoma. Its benefits include smaller surgical wound,, higher efficacy and fewer complications, and thus have a broad application prospects in the field of spinal metastatic tumors. In this article, a general re-view is given on minimally invasive treatments of spinal metastatic carcinoma, as well as the latest progress in the field. It was proposed that the united application of the treatment might be a promising hot spot of tumor therapy.
