Outcome of spine surgery in the context of spinal metastatic disease: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program
Our study provides valuable insights into the risk factors associated with mortality, morbidity, and prolonged hospital stay in patients with spinal cord metastasis undergoing spine surgery. These identified factors can be instrumental in assisting clinicians with risk stratification, preoperative optimization, and postoperative care planning, ultimately improving patient outcomes. Further research and validation of these predictive models are warranted to ensure their generalizability and applicability in clinical practice.
