Complications After Partial, Total or Extended Sacrectomy: A Case Series

Abstract: Objective The aim of this study was to conduct a survey of the different complications of partial, total or extended sacrectomy for the treatment of spinal tumors. Method This study is a descriptive analysis of medical records from a series of 18 patients who underwent sacrectomy between 2010 and 2019 at a tertiary center specializing in spinal tumor surgeries. The variables analyzed were sex, age, hospitalization time, oncologic diagnosis, posterior fixation pattern, rate of complications, and Frankel, ASA… Show more

“…The detailed study of the local anatomy is essential for the success of the procedure and to achieve good functional outcomes. 7 Enneking's principles define wide resection en bloc as the surgical strategy for SCs. 2,5 However, wide resection is a challenge, considering the aggressive behavior of the tumor and its infiltrative nature and poor marginalization.…”

“…Thus, there must be a balance between the chance of recurrence and the maintenance of the neurological function and the integrity of the visceral organs. 2,7 Low sacral amputations (distal to the level of S3) tend to present a minimal deficit, with preservation of almost 100% of the permanent and intestinal function. 6 High sacral amputations and total sacrectomies cause greater spinosacral and sacropelvic instability and sexual and sphincter dysfunction, when S1 is bilaterally injured.…”

“…The term total sacrectomy refers to resection and attachment of the dural sac below S1, with the resection extending to L4, L5 and to the iliac region if necessary. 33 Total sacrectomy, extended sacrectomy and hemisacrectomy are rare and demanding surgical procedures that cause instability and discontinuity between the spine and pelvis and generate major soft tissue defects. 34 Sacral tumors that lend themselves to en bloc resection can either be approached via a combined or posterior-only approach.…”
