Spine tumors can develop on the spine or spread to the spine from other areas of the body (a metastatic tumor). Metastatic spine tumors are the most common. Cervical spine tumor symptoms may vary from no pain or constant pain, numbness, tingling, stiffness or weakness.
Every tumor is unique, so we develop a treatment plan just for you. Our doctors typically treat metastatic tumors with chemotherapy (medicine) or radiation therapy. But, if a metastatic tumor affects the stability of vertebrae (bones in your neck) or your neck nerves, it may require surgery. Our spine specialists draw from the latest approaches in spine and neck tumor treatment to create a treatment approach that offers you the best possible results.
