Spinal tumors is a form of tumor that grows in the spinal cord. Extradural tumors are more common than intradural neoplasms.[1]
Forms
Depending on their location, the spinal cord tumors can be:
- Extradural - outside the dura mater lining (most common)
- Intradural - part of the dura
- Intramedullary - inside the spinal cord
- Extramedullary- inside the dura, but outside the spinal cord
Notable cases
- Dan Haggerty, American actor
- John Houseman, British actor
- John Marshall Harlan II, American judge

- Ravi Zacharias, Indian-born Canadian-American apologist
- Big Bully Busick, American professional wrestler
