Removal of a spinal tumour
HCA UK’s spinal experts can support and guide you through surgery to remove spinal tumours.
About spinal tumours
Spinal tumours can be benign (non-cancerous) or cancerous (malignant). Many cancers occurring in the spine have spread from other organs in the body.
Spinal tumours are usually ependymomas, which start in the spinal cord or brain, or nerve-sheath tumours, which start in the central nervous system in the spinal cord. Excision, or surgery, removes the tumour.

Patient stories
Georgia's story
At just 20 years old, Georgia was about to fulfil her dream of opening her own beauty salon when persistent symptoms led to an unexpected diagnosis of bowel cancer.
Hallie's story
When six-year-old Hallie was admitted to The Portland Hospital in July, her parents were facing an anxious wait. What began as abdominal pain led to a query of appendicitis and, following surgery, concerns around possible sepsis.
Mark's story
For years, left leg pain had been an irritating thing in Mark’s life. “I had a dull, constant ache behind my knee and in my calf when I was standing, especially towards the end of the day when I had been up and about a lot.”
