Bone-derived spinal tumors such as osteosarcoma, plasmacytoma, chondrosarcoma, and chordoma are epidural and relatively uncommon compared with spinal metastatic lesions and often present present as solitary lesions.
Malignant neoplasms have a vertebral body preference, whereas benign lesions can be seen in both anterior (osteoblastoma, osteoblastoma) and posterior (hemangioma, tumor) acidophilic seeds). Table 1 lists primary bone tumors that cause spinal cord injury, and spinal tumors associated with genetic syndromes are summarized in Table 2.
Early cancer screening is considered the perfect measure in timely detection and treatment of cancers. Vinmec International General Hospital currently has a high-tech cancer screening and examination package, including genetic testing, imaging, and biomarkers for early tumor detection. A single gene test can assess the risk of 16 common cancers in both men and women (lung cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, cervical cancer) Bowel cancer , stomach cancer , prostate cancer ,....)
