Abstract
Spinal cord tumors, although relatively rare, pose significant challenges due to their potential to affect neurological function and overall quality of life. These tumors can be benign or malignant and originate within the spinal cord, its coverings, or surrounding structures. The causes of spinal cord tumors remain largely unknown, though genetic and environmental factors may play a role. This review explores the various types of spinal cord tumors, their causes, clinical presentations, diagnostic techniques, and available treatment options. Emphasis is placed on the importance of early detection and personalized management strategies to improve outcomes for individuals affected by spinal cord tumors.
