Robot-assisted Invasion-controlled Surgery Versus Traditional-open Surgery Against Metastatic Spinal Tumor

With significant advances in diagnostic imaging and systemic therapies for oncologic disease, spinal metastasis with neurological dysfunction and mechanical instability has become an indication for surgery. Even if traditional-open surgery was palliative, the treatment of spinal metastasis also carried significant surgical morbidity. Those high morbidity and complication rates may influence the quality of patients with a limited life expectancy. Invasion-controlled surgery was utilized with Robot-assisted surgery approach against symptomatic spinal metastasis. Increasing interest in the potential for improved consistency, complication reduction, and decreased length of hospitalization through robot utilization is evident from the rapid growth of publications seen in recent years. So, the investigators wish to evaluate the advantages of Robot-assisted Invasion-controlled Surgery compared with traditional-open surgery spinal surgery in patients with metastatic spinal cord compression.
