Abstract

According to the literature, spinal tumors were successfully removed surgically for the first time approximately 100 years ago by W. MACEMEN (1883) and V. HORSLEY (1887). Since that time surgery has been performed on thousands of spinal tumors all over the world, though spinal tumors constitute only 2% of all tumors.
