“…According to this study age >70 years has shorter expected survival and as for the time between the diagnosis of the primary cancer and the diagnosis of the spinal metastases they suggest that it is of great importance, with early metastases having a poor prognosis while delayed metastases a better one. The time from primary diagnosis to the diagnosis of spinal metastatic disease is clearly associated with the aggressiveness of the primary tumor and its respond to the systemic therapy and they suggest that patients with delayed metastatic disease should be considered for excisional procedures 17 .…”
