Hi there I have a lump on the inside of my spine attach to the spinal cord it a hard lump the surgeon said when removing my coxyix bone the sia is a inch and a half by one inch what do you think this could be they could not remove it when I just recently had a coxyictamy
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted your symptoms. The exact cause of lump can be found out by doing a biopsy. I am sure the surgeon would have sent the lump for examination by pathologist. The report may take 4-5 days to be ready. The common causes for the lump in that region of spine include meningioma, and neurofibroma. Both of those are benign tumors. Surgery is the definite treatment. Sometimes, radiation therapy may be required in some cases after the biopsy report. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
