Commentary: A Huge Ependymoma of the Cervical Spinal Cord with Subtle Atypical Manifestations and Hyperhidrosis

Abstract

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com The most public initial symptom in patients with cervical spine tumors is neck pain. The pain might start progressively and develop more prominent over a prolonged period of time. Patients may also have shoulder, arm, or leg pain as the tumor mass extends beyond the confines of the bone or spinal canal to involve the spinal cord or nerve roots. As the tumor remains to grow, numbness, tingling, in the arms or legs might be observed. Through additional growth, weakness in the arms or legs can progress, as well as a reduced capability to normal walk. There can even be with bladder and bowel function problems.
