Any tumor or expansion on the spine, whether cancerous or not, could put pressure on the nerves and cause pain, nerve damage, or even paralysis. Loss of feeling or weakness in the muscles, particularly in the legs, trouble walking, which can lead to falls, and loss of bladder or bowel function are also signs of these tumors.
Surgery’s primary purpose is to relieve pressure on the spinal cord, fix the damage (like a broken bone), and stabilize the spine. By doing this, a doctor can help ease pain and help restore nerve function that has been lost. This, in turn, makes life better by making it easier to do things like walk or use the bathroom. Surgery can also, directly and indirectly, help people live longer.
Most of the time, Surgery is not an option for people with metastases unless they are predicted to live at least 3–4 months, and doctors can’t treat the tumor with radiation or chemotherapy. Intractable pain, spinal cord compression, and the need to fix pathological fractures are all reasons to have Surgery.
A spinal tumor is diagnosed by first examining back discomfort and neurological impairments. A positive diagnosis requires a CT or Bone Scan. If the diagnosis is ambiguous or malignancy vs benign tumor type is a concern, a biopsy may be indicated. A biopsy identifies its kind and treatment choices if the tumor is malignant.
The tumor’s placement in the spinal column determines the surgical strategy. Surgeons often use the posterior technique, which exposes the dura and nerve roots. This method is for spinal tumors or dura tumors. Decompression and multilevel segmental fixation are possible. The front approach is best for spine tumors. This method can also repair vertebral body removal abnormalities. This method facilitates short-segment focus. Thoracic and lumbar spinal cancers that impact anterior and posterior columns can be difficult to resect. Surgically treating these complex lesions often involves a back achieving desired results by a front approach.
You can expect Pain and movement restrictions will follow Surgery. It will be a 5-7-day hospital stay. Commitment to post-op instructions improves surgery outcomes. Spine surgery recovery is longer and impacts the quality of life. Thus psychological preparation is needed. Post-op medicines and rehab are required.
Nerve damage, infection, bleeding, and stiffness are all common risks of spine surgery. The dangers of spine surgery depend on the person. Talk to your surgeon about your level of risk before Surgery.
Depending on the type of cancer tissue, 83% of the time, surgical removal of spinal tumors works.
