Neurological complications are among the most serious consequences of spinal metastases. Tumor growth can compress the spinal cord or nerve roots, leading to weakness, numbness, and loss of function.

Early signs may include tingling, difficulty walking, or coordination problems. Without prompt treatment, symptoms may become permanent.

Management focuses on rapid decompression through surgery or radiation. Early intervention improves the likelihood of neurological recovery.

Metastatic spinal tumors significantly affect quality of life. Pain, mobility limitations, and emotional distress are common challenges.

Comprehensive care addresses physical symptoms, psychological support, and functional rehabilitation. Palliative care services help manage symptoms and support patients and families.

Focusing on quality of life ensures patient-centered care and dignity.
