Spine Tumor

Minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment for spinal tumors with focus on preserving nerve function

Overview

Spinal tumors may develop within spinal structures or spread from other parts of the body. These tumors may compress nerves and spinal tissues, resulting in pain, weakness, numbness, or mobility problems. Early diagnosis helps preserve nerve function and prevent long-term disability. Treatment planning depends on tumor location, size, neurological impact, and patient condition.
