Abstract
Delineation of patient characteristics associated with HrQOL improvement provides crucial information for patient selection, patient education, and setting treatment expectations. For patients with MESCC treated with hybrid therapy using surgery and radiosurgery, the presence of neurologic deficits and diminished performance status, lumbar tumor level, and female gender were associated with greater PRO improvement.
