The Synthetic Treatment in Vertebral Hemangioma / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the efficacy of radiotherapy and synthetic therapy for vertebral hemangiomas.Methods Clinical symptoms,imaging findings,therapeutic methods and following up after treatment in 22 cases with vertebal hemangiomas were retrospectively analyzed.Results Complete relief of symptoms(CR)were occurred in 19 of 22 patients(86.4%) and partial relief(PR)were achieved in 3 of 22 patients(13.6%).There was no obvious complication of radiotherapy and radiation-induced neoplasms.There was no relapse.Conclusion For vertebral hemangioma,the synthetic therapy which includes intenventional therapy before operation as well as radiotherapy after operation is of obvious superiority in relieving compression rapidly,reducing hemorrhage during operation and obtaining good efficacy.
