Skeletal extension in metastatic injuries of the vertebral column
The experience of using the skeletal extension in patients with metastatic injuries of the vertebral column with the danger of squeezing the spinal cord or with the developed squeezing in combination with disorders of pelvic organ functions is shown. On the basis of the given clinical observations it is concluded that the skeletal extension is one of the methods of palliative therapy. The method makes it possible to decrease the doses of narcotic and innarcotic analgetics or to abolish them, improves the quality of life, does not require additional economic expense.
