        Efficacy of Two-Stage Surgery for Spinal Cord Ependymomas

        Takamiya Soichiro,Seki Toshitaka,Yamazaki Kazuyoshi,Yano Shunsuke,Hida Kazutoshi 대한척추외과학회 2022 Asian Spine Journal Vol.16 No.4

        Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate cases for which staged surgeries are effective by a retrospective review of previous operative cases of spinal ependymomas.Overview of Literature: Patients with spinal ependymomas are expected to have a good prognosis following total resection. However, forcible dissection of spinal ependymomas will lead to neurological deterioration. Moreover, resection is sometimes difficult when the tumor is large. We have performed two-stage surgeries for large spinal ependymomas, but the indication of staged surgery is unclear.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients diagnosed with spinal ependymomas who underwent tumor resection in our institution. We obtained data regarding patients’ clinical characteristics, tumoral radiological characteristics, and surgical factors and compared them to clear prognostic factors. Two-stage surgery was performed in 11 patients (36.7%), and single surgery was performed in 19 patients (63.3%).Results: Thirty patients were included in the analyses and divided into two groups: single surgery and two-stage surgery groups. In the single surgery group, high tumor–cord ratio (TCR) and intraoperative motor evoked potential (MEP) reduction were significantly correlated with unfavorable outcomes, which were defined as deterioration of the modified McCormick scale grades 2 months and 1 year postoperatively. Alternatively, these factors were not significantly correlated with postoperative unfavorable outcomes in the two-stage surgery group. Receiver operating characteristic curves indicated that TCR of 0.866 yielded 85.7% sensitivity and 83.3% specificity 2 months postoperatively.Conclusions: The results suggested that high TCR might be an indication of two-stage surgery and that its cutoff value is 0.866. Moreover, switching from single surgery to two-stage surgery may prevent postoperative neurological deterioration when intraoperative MEP is decreasing.

        The Prediction of Neurological Prognosis for Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging

        Soichiro Takamiya,Motoyuki Iwasaki,Takumi Yokohama,Daisuke Oura,Yoshimasa Niiya,Miki Fujimura 대한척추신경외과학회 2023 Neurospine Vol.20 No.1

        Objective: Although cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) can be easily diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), prediction of surgical effect using preoperative radiological examinations remains difficult. In previous studies, it was reported that diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) may be used for the prediction of surgical effect; however, these studies did not consider the influences of spinal cord compression even though the values of DTI indexes can be distorted by compressive lesions in patients with CSM. Therefore, it is uncertain whether preoperative DTI indexes can actually predict the surgical effect. The aim of this study was to investigate DTI metrics that are hardly affected by spinal cord compression and can accurately predict neurological status after decompressive surgery. Methods: Twenty-one patients with CSM who underwent surgery and 10 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. The subjects underwent cervical MRI, and values of DTI indexes including axial diffusivity (AD), radial diffusivity (RD), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and fractional anisotropy (FA) were recorded at each intervertebral level. Further, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score of each patient with CSM was recorded before and after surgery for neurological status evaluation. Preoperative and postoperative values of DTI indexes were compared, and correlations between preoperative DTI parameters and postoperative neurological recovery were assessed. Results: After surgery, the lesion-adjacent (LA) ratios of RD and ADC increased (p = 0.04 and p = 0.062, respectively), while the LA ratio of FA decreased (p = 0.075). In contrast, the LA ratio of AD hardly changed. A negative correlation was observed between preoperative LA ratio of AD and JOA recovery rate 6 months after surgery (r = -0.379, p = 0.091). Based on preoperative LA ratio of AD, the patients were divided into a low AD group and a high AD group, and JOA recovery rate 6 months after surgery was found to be higher in the low AD group than in the high AD group (p = 0.024). Conclusion: In patients with CSM, preoperative LA ratio of AD is seldom affected by spinal cord compression, and it negatively correlates with JOA recovery rate 6 months after surgery.
