| A spinal column tumour is a cancerous (malignant) or noncancerous (benign) growth that develops within or near the spinal cord or within the bones of the spine and aren't as common as brain tumours, but they do occur. The majority of spinal cord tumours are found in children and young adults, but anyone can be diagnosed with a tumour at any point in their life. Treatment for a spinal tumour may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy or other medications. Surgery can range from a minimally invasive procedure to complex reconstruction depending on the severity of cancer involvement. This book aimed to have a complete and detailed update on spinal oncologic pathology and the most advanced techniques for diagnosing and managing spinal cord and spinal column tumours. From the fundamentals of spinal cord anatomy and spinal tumours pathology to the clinical evaluation, radiological diagnosis and treatment techniques for specific spinal tumours. The book is divided into two sections, one on spinal cord tumours and one on vertebral column tumours. The text contains multidisciplinary notions on surgical approaches for resection, reconstruction, decompression and stabilization for spinal tumours. Furthermore, the text contains important updates on the diagnosis and treatment of vertebral metastases with particular attention to diagnostic algorithms. It contains contributions and experiences of some of the world's leading experts in the treatment of spinal oncological pathology, making this work rich and complete. This book is aimed at neurosurgeons, orthopaedic surgeons and specialists who require a complete text on current techniques in the management of spinal tumours. |
