Spinal Metastasis

Spinal metastasis is the spread of cancer cells to the spine, usually from a primary cancer site in another part of the body. It can cause pain, paralysis, and other neurological deficits. Spinal metastasis is one of the most frequent cancer-related neurological complications, and early diagnosis and treatment play an important role in controlling symptoms and improving quality of life. Treatment options for spinal metastasis include radiation therapy, chemotherapy, surgery, and supportive care. Proper diagnosis and management of spinal metastasis is critical to preserving the patient's overall health and quality of life.
