Dr. Yash Madnani specializes in spine tumor surgery, utilizing advanced techniques to effectively treat spinal tumors and enhance patient recovery.
Spine tumor surgery involves the removal of tumors located in or near the spinal cord or vertebrae. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and may arise from the spine itself or metastasize from other body parts. The surgery aims to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, alleviate pain, and restore function. Causes of spine tumors include genetic predispositions, exposure to radiation, weakened immune systems, and certain inherited conditions. Symptoms may include back pain, neurological deficits, and changes in bowel or bladder control. Early detection and intervention are crucial for better outcomes.
