Total sacrectomy with a combined antero-posterior surgical approach for malignant sacral tumours

PURPOSE: To investigate the indications, approaches, resection methods, and complications of total sacrectomy with a combined antero-posterior approach for malignant sacral tumours. METHODS: Fourteen cases of primary malignant sacral tumours treated with total sacrectomy between January 2012 and 201...

description PURPOSE: To investigate the indications, approaches, resection methods, and complications of total sacrectomy with a combined antero-posterior approach for malignant sacral tumours. METHODS: Fourteen cases of primary malignant sacral tumours treated with total sacrectomy between January 2012 and 2018 were retrospectively analysed. All patients presented with pre-operative lumbosacral pain or constipation. A combined antero-posterior approach was used for tumour resection, and the spinal pedicle screw rod system was used to achieve ilio-lumbar stability. The visual analogue scale (VAS) and Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scores were used to assess pain and lower limb function, respectively. The mean operative time and intra-operative blood loss were 6.54 hours and 2935 mL, respectively. The mean follow-up period was 62 months. RESULTS: None of the patients died peri-operatively. At the last follow-up, ten patients were continuously disease-free, three were alive with disease, and one died of disease from lung metastasis. Tumour recurrence occurred in three patients. The MSTS scores ranged from 6 to 28 (20.00–93.33%, 6/30–28/30) with an average of 20 (66.67%, 20/30). Seven patients could walk independently in public, five could only walk at home using a walking aid, and two could only lie down and stand for a short time. Thirteen patients developed post-operative complications such as skin necrosis, screw loosening, connecting rod fracture, neuropathic pain, sciatic nerve injury, dysuria, and urinary incontinence. CONCLUSION: Total sacrectomy can effectively treat malignant sacral tumours with good resection boundaries and prognosis. However, the high incidence of post-operative complications may impact post-operative neurological function.
