There is no consensus on the optimal method of local control in Ewing's sarcoma (ES) of the mobile spine. Recent reports have suggested that en bloc resection may improve local control and survival. The authors therefore performed a systematic review to answer the following questions: (1) What is the outcome of en bloc resection for ES of the mobile spine with respect to local control and disease-free survival (DFS)? (2) How should residual ES of the mobile spine be treated?Inclusion criteria were articles published between the years 1960 and 2014 in English that contained more than five patients. This yielded 204 articles, from which 4 were selected for detailed analysis. The literature was graded for quality, summarized, and presented to a group of spinal oncology experts with consensus recommendations made.All 4 studies were retrospective case series graded as very low quality evidence. Local control strategies included radiotherapy (RT) alone, surgery and RT, or surgery alone. There was no standardized outcome reported across studies with respect to the type of surgical procedure, margins, and outcomes of interest such as local recurrence (LR) and DFS. When the en bloc procedures were pooled together, 2 of the 21 patients with available LR data developed LR (9.5%), and 5 of the 7 patients with available DFS data were disease free at a mean of 76 months. The remaining 2 died at 10 and 29 months, respectively. No studies were identified detailing the treatment of residual ES of the mobile spine.There is no consensus on the optimal method of local control for spinal ES or the treatment of residual disease. A weak recommendation supports that when the en bloc resection is technically possible, in combination with RT, this appears to provide superior local control than RT alone, or incomplete excision and RT. The effect on survival is indeterminate.
对于可活动脊柱的尤因肉瘤(ES),目前尚无关于局部控制的最佳方法的共识。最近的报告表明,整块切除可能会改善局部控制和生存率。因此,作者进行了一项系统综述,以回答以下问题:(1)就局部控制和无病生存率(DFS)而言,可活动脊柱的ES整块切除的结果如何?(2)可活动脊柱的残余ES应如何治疗?纳入标准为1960年至2014年间以英文发表的包含超过5例患者的文章。这产生了204篇文章,从中选择了4篇进行详细分析。对文献进行质量分级、总结,并提交给一组脊柱肿瘤学专家,由他们给出共识性建议。所有4项研究均为回顾性病例系列,质量等级为极低质量证据。局部控制策略包括单纯放疗(RT)、手术联合RT或单纯手术。在手术方式、切缘以及局部复发(LR)和DFS等感兴趣的结果方面,各研究之间没有报告标准化的结果。当将整块切除手术汇总在一起时,21例有LR数据的患者中有2例发生LR(9.5%),7例有DFS数据的患者中有5例在平均76个月时无病生存。其余2例分别在10个月和29个月时死亡。未发现有研究详细说明可活动脊柱残余ES的治疗方法。对于脊柱ES的最佳局部控制方法或残余疾病的治疗,尚无共识。一项微弱的建议支持,当技术上可行时,整块切除联合RT似乎比单纯RT或不完全切除联合RT能提供更好的局部控制。对生存的影响尚不确定。
