Surg."],"abstract":"\n Background:<\/jats:title>\n Extradural spinal tumors arise from soft or bony tissues in the spine and account for majority of spinal tumors. Interest in the unilateral biportal endoscopic (UBE) technique is rising, because it can easily decompress the bony spinal canal and accommodate all open surgical instruments under endoscopic guidance. However, reports of this technique have been limited to certain diseases. This study first demonstrates the UBE technique for extradural tumor biopsy and removal, and percutaneous stabilization in a 72-year-old female patient with dramatic symptom improvement.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n We used the UBE technique for decompression and the percutaneous screw fixation technique for stabilization in a patient with an extradural mass compressing the thecal sac and destroying the posterior element. Under endoscopic guidance, a unilateral approach was used, and decompression and flavectomy were performed bilaterally. After decompression, tumor removal and biopsy were performed using various forceps and biopsy needles. After confirming sufficient spinal canal decompression, the screw was placed percutaneously. We evaluated the technical process of the procedure, the patient's pre- and postoperative pain (using the visual analog scale), and operative radiology and pathologic results.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Postoperative pain and disability improved clinically, and spinal alignment stabilized radiologically. As the pathology findings confirmed an aneurysmal bone cyst, the treatment was completed without adjuvant therapy.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n We treated an unstable spine due to an extradural tumor with the UBE and percutaneous screw techniques.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fsurg.2022.863931","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,28]],"date-time":"2022-03-28T21:22:37Z","timestamp":1648502557000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Unilateral Biportal Endoscopic Tumor Removal and Percutaneous Stabilization for Extradural Tumors: Technical Case Report and Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Seung-kook","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Riyad","family":"Bendardaf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Murtaza","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hyun-a","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eun-jung","family":"Heo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Su-chan","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"280","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0034-1375570","article-title":"Primary tumors of the spine","volume":"18","author":"Orguc","year":"2014","journal-title":"Semin Musculoskelet Radiol."},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"621","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-1331.2005.01043.x","article-title":"Time to diagnosis of intraspinal tumors","volume":"12","author":"Jellema","year":"2005","journal-title":"Eur J Neurol."},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"245","DOI":"10.3322\/CA.2007.0016","article-title":"Spinal extradural metastasis: review of current treatment options","volume":"58","author":"Bartels","year":"2008","journal-title":"CA Cancer J Clin."},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e450","DOI":"10.1016\/j.wneu.2020.02.151","article-title":"Biportal endoscopic spinal surgery versus microscopic decompression for lumbar spinal stenosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"138","author":"Pranata","year":"2020","journal-title":"World Neurosurg."},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"3021","DOI":"10.1007\/s00701-021-04820-4","article-title":"Biportal endoscopic debridement and percutaneous screw fixation technique for spinal tuberculosis: how I do it","volume":"163","author":"Kim","year":"2021","journal-title":"Acta Neurochir (Wien)."},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"298","DOI":"10.1097\/00007632-200102010-00016","article-title":"Surgical strategy for spinal metastases","volume":"26","author":"Tomita","year":"2001","journal-title":"Spine (Phila Pa 1976)"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"E1221","DOI":"10.1097\/BRS.0b013e3181e16ae2","article-title":"A novel classification system for spinal instability in neoplastic disease: an evidence-based approach and expert consensus from the Spine Oncology Study Group","volume":"35","author":"Fisher","year":"2010","journal-title":"Spine (Phila Pa 1976)"},{"key":"B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1131","DOI":"10.1148\/radiographics.16.5.8888395","article-title":"From the archives of the AFIP.
