Tumors were found between T1 and T12 vertebrae. Operation time, blood loss, hospitalization, recovery of neurological function, complications, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, and the visual analogue scale (VAS) score were used to evaluate clinical efficacy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>In all 31 cases, tumors were completely resected in one operation, with a mean blood loss of 53.23\u2009\u00b1\u200933.08\u2009mL (20\u2013150\u2009mL) and a mean operation time of 95.16\u2009\u00b1\u200920.31\u2009min (60\u2013180\u2009min). According to the Eden classification, there were four type II cases, 16 type III cases, and 11 type IV cases. The incidence of tumors in the lower thoracic segment (T8\u2013T12) was 51.6% (16\/31 cases), while the incidences in the upper thoracic segment (T1\u2013T4) and middle segment (T5\u2013T8) were 25.8% (8\/31 cases) and 22.6% (7\/31 cases), respectively. Pathological diagnoses were schwannoma (n\u00a0=\u00a022), gangliocytoma (n\u00a0=\u00a04), metastatic tumor (n\u00a0=\u00a02), neurofibroma (n\u00a0=\u00a01), granuloma (n\u00a0=\u00a01), and lipoma (n\u00a0=\u00a01). After surgery, symptoms were relieved in all patients. VAS and JOA scores significantly improved (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001). There was no pleural or lung injury, and there were no complications, such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage. The average follow\u2010up duration was 29\u2009months (13\u201359\u2009months), during which time no tumor recurrence or spinal instability occurred. The group of Eden type II tumors had lower JOA scores at 12\u2009months postoperatively, longer operation times, and more estimated blood loss compared with other groups (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). There were no significant influences on VAS scores at 12\u2009months postoperatively and postoperative hospital stay from the different types of tumors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The paravertebral approach with a micro\u2010tubular technique is a safe and effective minimally invasive surgical approach for thoracic dumbbell tumors that allows one\u2010stage tumor resection using a single incision. Using this approach significantly reduces intraoperative blood loss and postoperative complications, shortens hospital stay, and reduces the rates of postoperative spinal instability.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/os.12991","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,4]],"date-time":"2021-05-04T10:11:28Z","timestamp":1620123088000},"page":"1227-1235","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Efficacy
