OBJECTIVES: Burden of hospitalizations related to spinal tumors was estimated in 2012-2013 through data from the PMSI. The objective was to reassess this burden through the PMSI 2014-2015. METHODS: All hospital stays with spinal tumors were extracted from the PMSI-MCO 2012 and 2014 database (French Medical Information System Program- Medicine, Surgery, Obstetric), using ICD-10 codes as principal/related or significantly associated diagnosis (PD/RD/SAD) for primary and secondary spine tumors. Patients were followed during one year from their first stay (e.g. March 2012/March 2013; October 2014/October 2015). An algorithm and a medical review excluded non spinal tumor related stays. Associated costs during the period were added up: a total annual cost (“burden”) as well as a mean annual cost per patient were estimated. Valuation was performed considering French official tariffs for 2012 to 2015 and expressed in 2017 Euro. RESULTS: In 2014, 10,029 stays were extracted and considered as directly related to spinal tumors corresponding to 3,445 patients (9,415 stays and 3,284 patients in 2012). Mean age slightly increased between 2012 and 2014 (65.7±19.1 vs
