DIAGNOSTICS OF SPINE TUMORS

This article reviews the diagnosis and pathophysiology of spinal tumors. Spinal tumors occur in intramedullary, extramedullary, intradural and extradural forms, which cause different clinical symptoms depending on their location and histological composition. Methods such as physical examination, neurological assessment, pulse oximetry, X-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fetal or neonatal echocardiography are important in the diagnostic process. Histological types of tumors include glial, neuroectodermal, meningioma, schwannoma, and metastatic forms, which result in a variety of clinical manifestations. Pathophysiologically, tumors cause regional neuronal dysfunction through compression, hypoxia, and circulatory compromise, and their rapid growth and invasive nature lead to rapid progression of patient symptoms. The article also reviews the efficacy of diagnostic approaches, the role of surgical intervention, and future research directions. This work will serve as a useful resource for rapid and complete detection of spinal tumors in clinical practice and the development of effective treatment strategies.
