Spinal cord malformations’s epidemiology in French children: National cross sectional study based on medico-administrative database
Objective
Epidemiological data on rare spinal cord malformations in children are lacking in France. Using the national hospital discharge database (PMSI), we studied the care trajectories and estimated the morbidity and mortality burden of these conditions.
Study design
We conducted a nationwide historical cohort study from 2010 to 2020, including children diagnosed with rare spinal cord diseases within the scope of the C-MAVEM network. Cases were identified through ICD-10 codes using a semi-automated, multicenter-validated extraction algorithm (positive predictive value >80%). Incidence and in-hospital mortality rates were estimated for the following conditions: Spina Bifida (SB), Arnold Chiari syndrome (ACS), Syringomyelia and Syringobulbia (SM), Diastematomyelia (DM), and Hydromyelia (HM).
Results
A total of 10,114 children were identified, corresponding to an estimated prevalence of 67 per 100,000. Incidence rates per 100,000 live births were: 2.6 for SB, 2.2 for ACS, 1.0 for SM, 0.2 for DM, and 0.04 for HM. The mortality was 2.5%, 1.7%, 1.1%, 0.95%, no available for HM, respectively. Most patients were treated in university hospitals with considerable heterogeneity in surgical management depending on etiology and associated malformations.
Conclusion
This study provides, for the first time in France, national epidemiological estimates for rare pediatric spinal cord malformations. The use of a validated medico-administrative data extraction approach enables largescale surveillance of these rare conditions, improves understanding of their healthcare burden, and supports planning for specialized care and public health strategies.
期刊介绍:
Neurochirurgie publishes articles on treatment, teaching and research, neurosurgery training and the professional aspects of our discipline, and also the history and progress of neurosurgery. It focuses on pathologies of the head, spine and central and peripheral nervous systems and their vascularization. All aspects of the specialty are dealt with: trauma, tumor, degenerative disease, infection, vascular pathology, and radiosurgery, and pediatrics. Transversal studies are also welcome: neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, neurology, neuropediatrics, psychiatry, neuropsychology, physical medicine and neurologic rehabilitation, neuro-anesthesia, neurologic intensive care, neuroradiology, functional exploration, neuropathology, neuro-ophthalmology, otoneurology, maxillofacial surgery, neuro-endocrinology and spine surgery. Technical and methodological aspects are also taken onboard: diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, methods for assessing results, epidemiology, surgical, interventional and radiological techniques, simulations and pathophysiological hypotheses, and educational tools. The editorial board may refuse submissions that fail to meet the journal''s aims and scope; such studies will not be peer-reviewed, and the editor in chief will promptly inform the corresponding author, so as not to delay submission to a more suitable journal.
With a view to attracting an international audience of both readers and writers, Neurochirurgie especially welcomes articles in English, and gives priority to original studies. Other kinds of article - reviews, case reports, technical notes and meta-analyses - are equally published.
Every year, a special edition is dedicated to the topic selected by the French Society of Neurosurgery for its annual report.
