Efficacy of preoperative embolization for metastatic spinal tumor surgery using angiographic vascularity assessment

Preoperative embolization (PE) for metastatic spinal tumors is a method of minimizing intraoperative blood loss during aggressive surgery. This study specified angiographic standards and investigated the influence of these and other factors on blood loss in patients with spinal metastases and various pathologies.
