Abstract:Introduction:
Oligometastatic disease (≤ 3 extracranial metastases) is hypothesised as the intermediary state between localised and widespread metastatic disease. However, in terms of spinal oligometastatic disease, data on oncological outcome after radical surgical treatment are still lacking in literature. The same applies to the advantages of CFR-PEEK instrumentation in this specific patient cohort compared to the use of titanium fixation.
Methods:
We retrospectively analysed our prospectively collected con… Show more
