Surgical Outcomes after Preoperative Embolization of Primary and Secondary Pelvic Bone Tumors

Le résumé fourni par la source

Purpose: To analyze the technical results and safety of preoperative embolization of pelvic bone tumors. Materials & Methods: Retrospective study analysis of a cohort of patients who underwent preoperative hypervascular, pelvic bone tumor embolization at the authors' institution between January 2008 and January 2025. Preinterventional data, including clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings, procedural angiographic and surgical data, and clinical follow-up data were collected from the patients' electronic medical records. Patient follow-ups were conducted until March 2025 or until the patient's death. Results: Twenty-three patients (11 male patients; mean age of 42 years) underwent uneventful , preoperative embolization for primary (n=15) or metastatic (n=8) pelvic bone tumor resection. A mean of 2.3 tumor feeding arteries were preoperatively embolized with complete tumor blush disappearance in n=13 (56.5%) or near-complete tumor blush disappearance with less than 10% residual tumor blush visualized in n=10 patients (43.4%). Surgical intervention was performed with a mean of 1.7 days after embolization and was associated with a mean of 1.88 L perioperative blood loss. Conclusion: Preoperative pelvic tumor embolization is a safe procedure with a mean of more than two feeding arteries identified and embolized. Key points: · Preoperative embolization is a safe procedure for pelvic bone tumors.. · Angiography identified a mean of 2.3 tumor feeding arteries embolized.. · Complete preoperative angiographic tumoral devascularization was found in 56% of patients.. · Surgical intervention after preoperative tumor embolization was associated with a mean of 1.88L perioperative blood loss..
