Abstract
Osseous/extradural pediatric spine tumors are uncommon and divided into benign and malignant. The Enneking classification is used to divide the benign tumors into latent, benign aggressive and aggressive. The malignant spine tumors include osteosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma and lymphoma. A tissue biopsy is crucial for diagnosis and is essential to manage these tumors in a multi-disciplinary manner.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Spine Surgery is a continuing source of current, clinical information for practicing surgeons. Under the direction of a specially selected guest editor, each issue addresses a single topic in the management and care of patients. Topics covered in each issue include basic anatomy, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, management options and follow-up of the condition under consideration. The journal also features "Spinescope," a special section providing summaries of articles from other journals that are of relevance to the understanding of ongoing research related to the treatment of spinal disorders.
