ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
The optimal timing between preoperative embolization of hypervascular metastatic bone lesions and surgery has yet to be established. Our analysis sought to evaluate embolization timing impacts blood loss, transfusion risk, and operative time in patients with hypervascular primary tumors.METHODS:
We identified patients with renal cell (RCC) or thyroid carcinoma undergoing surgery between 1992 and 2023. Patients were segregated into the following cohorts (1) no embolization preoperatively, (2) surgery <24 h of embolization, and (3) surgery >24 h after embolization. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the effect of embolization timing while controlling for confounding variables.RESULTS:
No differences were seen in all evaluated outcomes between immediate and delayed embolization cohorts. No differences in estimated blood loss were seen between the immediate (OR 0.685, 95% CI 0.159-2.949; p = 0.611) and delayed (OR 0.568, 95% CI 0.093-3.462; p = 0.539) surgery cohorts compared with patients without embolization. Surgery >24 h after embolization was not associated with a higher risk of prolonged operative time (OR 13.499, 95% CI 0.832-219.146; p = 0.067).CONCLUSIONS:
These findings suggest that surgery may be safely delayed beyond 24 h from embolization without a higher risk of bleeding. In appropriately selected cohorts, embolization may not be needed preoperatively.Palabras clave
