Clinical Outcomes and Prognostic Factors of Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Spinal Metastases With Epidural Spinal Cord Compression Grades 1-2.

Key Points

• This research examines the effectiveness and safety of stereotactic radiotherapy in patients with spinal metastases and epidural spinal cord compression grades 1-2.
• Analyzed clinical outcomes in patients with ESCC grades 1-2 and no vertebral instability
• Investigated the effectiveness of stereotactic radiotherapy alone
• Compared outcomes to surgery combined with radiotherapy
• Stereotactic radiotherapy demonstrated outstanding local control
• Minimal toxicity was reported in treated patients
• Stereotactic radiotherapy presents a notable alternative to traditional surgical methods
