Remifentanil versus dexmedtomidine for posterior spinal fusion surgery
Background: Controlling the hemodynamic situation of patients who have spinal operation is of prime importance, and maintaining the heart rate and blood pressure in normal or low- normal levels in these patients can reduce their bleeding loss. One of the commonly used drugs for this purpose is remifentanil. Another sedative-hypnotic-analgesic drug, with acceptable effects is dexmedetomidine. ...
متن کاملIntraoperative radiotherapy during kyphoplasty for vertebral metastases (Kypho-IORT): first clinical results.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Kyphoplasty is an effective procedure providing structural stability and pain alleviation in vertebral metastases. To prevent early regrowth, patients typically receive postoperative fractionated radiotherapy, which is associated with long treatment duration. Therefore, we established a new approach to deliver intraoperative radiotherapy during kyphoplasty to shorten the tre...
متن کاملRadiotherapy or surgery for spine metastases?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Radiotherapy (RT) remains the cornerstone of management of spine metastases (SM), even though surgery is a well-established treatment for selected patients. We compared the use of RT and surgery in a population-based cohort of patients with SM, investigated pre-treatment factors that were associated with use of these treatment modalities, and examined survival. PATIENTS...
متن کاملIntraoperative radiotherapy: review of techniques and results
Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is a technique that involves precise delivery of a large dose of ionising radiation to the tumour or tumour bed during surgery. Direct visualisation of the tumour bed and ability to space out the normal tissues from the tumour bed allows maximisation of the dose to the tumour while minimising the dose to normal tissues. This results in an improved therapeutic ...
