[Rehabilitative treatment of patients with primary and secondary spinal cord neoplasms]

The Authors present their studies concerning rehabilitation treatment in primary and secondary spinal cord tumors. They examine the problems inherent in this complex pathology. Rehabilitation was initiated in the acute phase of the illness with the aim of preventing secondary and tertiary damage that could jeopardize successive functional recuperation. The Authors believe that rehabilitation treatment, when used early enough, improves the day life for patients with spinal cord tumors.
