1. Metastatic spinal cord compression in prostate cancer : clinical and morphological studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Bone metastases occur in most patients with advanced hormone-refractory prostate cancer causing pain, pathologic fractures, and spinal cord compression. Few studies specifically address surgical treatment of metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) in prostate cancer. LÄS MER
2. Clinical and morphological aspects of metastatic spinal cord compression
Sammanfattning : Background: Metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) is a serious complication of cancer leading to demyelination and axonal damage of the spinal cord with a risk of para/tetraplegia. It is most common in patients with known cancer but may also be the initial manifestation of malignancy (IMM). LÄS MER
