Stereotactic radiosurgery (SR) is increasingly utilized for the treatment of intracranial and extracranial pathology. It is considered an important adjuvant to surgery, chemotherapy or fractionated radiotherapy, and the role of SR as a primary treatment modality continues to be explored. Although SR for spinal lesions is in its infancy, there is a growing body of literature supporting its efficacy. The purpose of this review is to summarize the pertinent literature regarding the use of SR for lesions of the spine and spinal cord. Particular emphasis will be placed on large clinical series of both primary and secondary spine tumors.
立体定向放射外科(SR)越来越多地用于治疗颅内和颅外病变。它被认为是手术、化疗或分次放疗的重要辅助手段,SR作为主要治疗方式的作用仍在不断探索中。尽管用于脊柱病变的SR尚处于起步阶段,但越来越多的文献支持其疗效。本综述的目的是总结有关使用SR治疗脊柱和脊髓病变的相关文献。将特别强调原发性和继发性脊柱肿瘤的大型临床系列研究。
