Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Oncology
  • Spinal Cord Medicine

Background:

  • Back pain is a common reason for neurologic consultation in cancer patients.
  • Suspected spinal cord compression requires prompt evaluation.
  • Neoplastic epidural spinal cord compression impacts cancer patient neurology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review clinical features of neoplastic epidural spinal cord compression.
  • To discuss differential diagnosis for spinal cord compression in cancer.
  • To outline management strategies for neoplastic epidural spinal cord compression.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of neoplastic epidural spinal cord compression.
  • Analysis of clinical presentations.
  • Synthesis of diagnostic and management guidelines.
