[Rheography of the open spinal cord in primary tumors]

The author discusses experience in the study of regional spinal blood filling and vascular tension by rheomyelography in the stages of neurosurgical intervention in 90 patients with primary tumors of the spinal cord. Statistically reliable data were obtained on blood filling of the spinal cord vessels and vascular tension according to the position of the tumor in relation to the diameter and length of the spinal cord, the histological structure of the tumor, and the degree of subarachnoid space block.
