CyberKnife radiosurgery for benign intradural extramedullary spinal tumors.
Neurosurgery. 2006; (4): 674-85; discussion 674-85
Microsurgical resection of benign intradural extramedullary spinal tumors is generally safe and successful, but patients with neurofibromatosis, recurrent tumors, multiple lesions, or medical problems that place them at higher surgical risk may benefit from alternatives to surgery. In this prospective study, we analyzed our preliminary experience with image-guided radiosurgical ablation of selected benign spinal neoplasms.
