Multiple spinal myeloma and its surgical management

Original language description

The management of spinal multiple myeloma (MM) is a complex process, including causal treatment (i.e. efforts to suppress the tumor clone), as well as supportive therapy, including surgery. The aim of this article is to present retrospective evaluation of surgical indications in patients with MM or solitary spinal plasmocytoma. A total of 10 patients (8 males and 2 females) aged from 32 to 74 years (the mean age of 53.3) were included in the study. The enrolment criteria were the following: patients operated for MM or solitary spinal plasmocytoma during the past 7-year period, with the minimum follow up period of 6 months. The procedures were indicated for progressing neurological deficit (Frankel score) and for axial spinal pain (VAS classification),not responding to conservative therapy. The extent of the disease was assessed based on plain x-ray, MRI and whole- body 18F-FDG PET/CT.
