[Application of total en bloc spondylectomy in spinal tumors].

Total en bloc spondylectomy is a surgical technique cutting off tumors of spine and its satellite. Previous studies have shown that this technique could reduce postoperative recurrence rate of spinal tumor, but surgical indications are not unified. Wide application of spinal tumor surgical staging and life expectancy system make it more clear for surgery. However, it is difficult to carry out extensive operation for the characteristics of more bleeding, great difficulty and high risk. As for continuous improvement of TES technology, application of endoscopy and appearance of 3D printing artificial vertebral body could push the operation becoming mature.
