Spinal Tumors: Advanced Care for a Complex Condition
Spinal tumors, whether benign or malignant, are abnormal growths that develop within or around the spinal column. These tumors can lead to significant complications, including pain, nerve damage, and loss of function. At The Spine Clinic, we specialize in diagnosing and treating spinal tumors with cutting-edge techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.
Symptoms and Diagnosis of Spinal Tumors
Symptoms of spinal tumors vary depending on their size, location, and growth rate. Common signs include persistent back pain that worsens at night, weakness or numbness in the arms or legs, difficulty walking, and loss of bladder or bowel control. Early diagnosis is essential to prevent irreversible complications. Our clinic employs advanced imaging technologies like MRI, CT scans, and biopsy procedures to accurately identify and assess spinal tumors.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Treatment for spinal tumors depends on their type, location, and impact on surrounding structures. Non-invasive approaches, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy, are used for some cases. Surgical removal is often necessary to alleviate pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. At The Spine Clinic, we excel in minimally invasive surgical techniques to remove tumors while preserving spinal stability.
Comprehensive Support for Recovery
Beyond removing the tumor, our focus is on helping patients recover their quality of life. Our multidisciplinary approach includes physical therapy, pain management, and psychological support to address the challenges posed by spinal tumors. With expert care and advanced technology, The Spine Clinic is dedicated to restoring health and hope to those affected by spinal tumors.
