The skeleton is a common metastatic site for advanced breast cancer and is where spinal metastasis is most frequently seen. The incidence rate of spinal metastasis in descending order is as follows: thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, sacrococcygeal vertebrae and cervical vertebrae.展开更多

Methods: Electronic databases including Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, EMbase, Medline, SCI Expanded-ISI, NTIS, SIGLE and CNKI were searched. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials which compared the incidence of postoperative complications of TT with ST/NTT for treating BMNG. Data extraction was using predefined data fields and assessment of methodological quality with the GRADE approach. A ManteI-Haenszel random-effects model was used and the effect sizes were expressed by using relative risks and 95% confidence intervals. Results: Four studies including 881 participants that met inclusion criteria were analyzed. Compared with ST/NTT, TT was associated with increased risk of transient RLNI (recur- rent laryngeal nerve injuries) (relative risk 2.18, 95% confidence interval 1.08 to 4.42; P 〈 0.05) and transient hypocalcemia (3.79, 1.64 to 8.77; P 〈 0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences in permanent RLNI (1.36, 0.31 to 6.02; P 〉 0.05) and permanent hypocalcemia (2.37, 0.35 to 15.97; P 〉 0.05). The quality of evidence for each individual outcome was ultimately rated as moderate (permanent RLNI and permanent hypocalcemia), low (transient RLNI and transient hypocalce- mia). Conclusion: For treating BMNG with thyroidectomy, there were no statistically significant differences in postoperative complications between TT and ST/NTT on a long view.展开更多
