“…Internal fixation is needed to stabilize the cervical spine when >50% of the facet joint is removed, 14 but few studies have reported reconstruction of the lateral mass structure of the cervical spine (Table 2). [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] For primary cervical vertebral tumors, reconstruction of spinal stability after spondylectomy is challenging. Most studies…”

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the outcome of using three-dimensional (3D)-printed prostheses to reconstruct a cervical lateral mass to maintain cervical stability. Methods:We retrospectively analyzed data of seven patients requiring cervical lateral mass reconstruction using a 3D-printed prosthesis, comprising axial and subaxial lateral mass reconstruction in two and five patients, respectively. Bilateral mass was reconstructed in one patient and unilateral mass in the remaining six patients.Results: Using a 3D-printed lateral mass prosthesis, internal fixation was stable for all seven patients postoperatively. No implant-related complications such as prosthesis loosening, displacement, and compression were observed at the last follow-up.Conclusions: Reconstruction of the lateral mass structure is beneficial in restoring load transfer in the cervical spine under physiological conditions. A 3D-printed prosthesis can be considered a good option for reconstruction of the lateral mass as fusion was achieved, with no subsequent complications observed.

“…Surgery is actually the main therapeutic tool for this kind of lesions. Particularly, reviewing data from studies of extraspinal osteosarcoma [15], an advantage in terms of local control and long-term survival has been demonstrated by en-block and wide-margin resections, over tumors treated with intralesional resection. Yet, due to the contiguity of vital structures to the spine, not always the total resection can be accomplished.…”

Sarcomas are rare tumours that commonly derive from neoplastic transformation of mesenchymal tissues. Only a small percentage of these malignancies are located in the spine. The gold standard of treatment is a multidisciplinary approach with the surgery being the most important tool. An en-bloc resection with free margins followed by radiotherapy seems to assure the best overall survival. Among the newest treatment modalities, certainly, the adrontherapy is the most interesting and promising kind of radiotherapy that uses the physical bullet properties (Bragg peak) of protons such as carbon ions to treat lesions. We present a case of a gentleman with a C2-C3 low grade osteosarcoma treated, after a biopsy tissue sample, with hadrontherapy alone. At 6 years follow up the tumour seems to be well under control.

“…With new material available as prosthesis, bone implants and bone graft, a complete cure can be offered to patients with huge bone tumours. En block resection of spinal tumours like osteosarcoma that were otherwise devastating is now being carried out successfully [16].…”

Гупта Всеиндийский институт медицинских наук, Нью-Дели, ИндияIn review showed modern surgical strategies in selected areas of pediatric oncology. The newer energy sources have contributed to less blood and thus fewer complications following major resections. Robotic, endoscopy and stereotactic surgery have been the major advances in the treatment of pediatric tumours. There is more dependence on the use of chemotherapy, newer protocols with less toxic drugs and for shorter duration.In a review of the current literature assesses the recently discovered phenomenon and the toxicity of anesthetics in the developing child brain. The ways of diagnostics of morphological and functional abnormalities of brain activity in children. Provides indisputable data on the possibility of this type of interactions taking into account the mechanism of action of anesthetics. Comparative characteristics of strength toxic effects on children's brain different types of inhalation and non-inhalation anesthetics. There is a comparison of the degree of toxic impact on the brain at single and repeated exposure of anesthesia. Emphasizes the lack of information and especially objective data visualization of degenerative changes in children's brain due to ethical constraints and the impossibility of obtaining samples for biopsy. The conclusion about the appropriateness of expectant surgical tactics in the absence of urgent indications for surgical intervention to 4 years of a child's life. Also, our patients need more researches in this direction.В обзоре дается оценка недавно обнаруженному феномену токсичности анестетиков для развивающегося детского мозга.
