Spinal Cord Tumor Removal Treatment in India

About Spinal Cord Tumor Removal

Spinal cord tumor removal surgery treats tumors arising in or around the spinal cord that can compress nerve tissue and cause pain, weakness, or loss of function. Using microsurgical techniques and neuromonitoring, neurosurgeons aim to safely remove as much of the tumor as possible while preserving spinal cord function.

Symptoms to Watch For

  • Back or neck pain, often worsening at night
  • Progressive weakness in the arms or legs
  • Numbness or altered sensation
  • Difficulty walking or loss of coordination
  • Bladder or bowel dysfunction in advanced cases

When You Should Seek Treatment

Surgery is generally recommended when imaging confirms a spinal cord tumor causing neurological symptoms or significant compression, or when a tumor is growing and threatens spinal cord function. Your neurosurgical team will assess tumor type, location, and urgency of treatment.

How the Treatment Works

  • Performed under general anesthesia with spinal cord monitoring
  • A posterior approach is typically used to access the spinal canal
  • The tumor is carefully removed using microsurgical technique
  • Neuromonitoring helps protect spinal cord function throughout surgery
  • Surgery duration varies based on tumor size and location

Recovery & Hospital Stay

  • 5-10 days hospital stay
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation as needed
  • Gradual improvement in neurological symptoms over weeks to months
  • Follow-up imaging to monitor for recurrence
  • Close monitoring of spinal cord function during recovery
