Abstrakt: | Purpose: Although surgical decompression is the gold standard for metastatic epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC) from solid tumors, not all patients are candidates or undergo successful surgical Bilsky downgrading. We report oncologic and functional outcomes for patients treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to high-grade MESCC. Methods and Materials: Patients with Bilsky grade 2 to 3 MESCC from solid tumor metastases treated with SBRT at a single institution from 2009 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients who received upfront surgery before SBRT were included only if postsurgical Bilsky grade remained ≥2. Neurologic examinations, magnetic resonance imaging, pain assessments, and analgesic usage were assessed every 3 to 4 months post-SBRT. Cumulative incidence of local recurrence was calculated with death as a competing risk, and overall survival was estimated by Kaplan-Meier. Results: One hundred forty-three patients were included. The cumulative incidence of local recurrence was 5.1%, 7.5%, and 14.1% at 6, 12, and 24 months, respectively. At first post-SBRT imaging, 16.2% of patients with initial Bilsky grade 2 improved to grade 1, and 53.8% of patients were stable. Five of 13 patients (38.4%) with initial Bilsky grade 3 improved to grade 1 to 2. Pain response at 3 and 6 months post-SBRT was complete in 45.4% and 55.7%, partial in 26.9% and 13.1%, stable in 24.1% and 27.9%, and worse in 3.7% and 3.3% of patients, respectively. At 3 and 6 months after SBRT, 17.8% and 25.0% of patients had improved ambulatory status and 79.7% and 72.4% had stable status. Conclusions: We report the largest series to date of patients with high-grade MESCC treated with SBRT. The excellent local control and functional outcomes suggest SBRT is a reasonable approach in inoperable patients or cases unable to be successfully surgically downgraded.
