Abstract:
Within a period of 35 years a total of 570 spinal tumours included 77 intramedullary gliomas (44 astrocytomas and 33 ependymomas including those located in the conuscada region). Initial symptoms, neurological findings at the time of the admittance to the clinic as well as results of the operation are presented. The importance of an early diagnosis is pointed out.
