What are Spinal Tumors?
Abnormal growths that develop inside or around the spinal cord or vertebrae. They can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and may affect nerves, bone, or surrounding tissues.
How are They Diagnosed?
Modern diagnosis uses MRI, CT scans, biopsy, and advanced neuro-imaging to precisely locate the tumor and understand its type, size, and effect on nerves.
Treatment Options:
Cutting-edge treatments include:
Minimally invasive spine surgery
Microscopic or endoscopic tumor removal
Radiation therapy / SRS (Stereotactic Radiosurgery)
Chemotherapy for specific tumors
Rehabilitation to restore mobility and nerve function
