Brief Title: SBRT in the Management of Solid Spinal Metastases
Official Title: The Efficiency of SBRT in Preventing Recurrent Spinal Cord Compression in Patients Undergoing Surgery and Radiotherapy for Epidural Spinal Metastasis From Solid Tumor
Study ID: NCT04863612
Brief Summary: Documenting efficiency of SBRT in the management of epidural spinal metastases from solid tumors
Detailed Description: The department of radiotherapy in UZLeuven recently included Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) in the standard of care for the management of patients with spinal metastases. The aim of this study is to prospectively document neurological outcome, performance and quality of life following surgery + SBRT for spinal metastases with imminent / actual spinal cord compression, and compare outcomes with the historical cohort of the UZLeuven patients included in the Global Spine Tumor Study Group database between 2011 and 2019 in whom prospective neurological, performance and quality of life outcomes were collected following surgery + conventional radiotherapy
