In this newest episode from the Section on Spine Oncology , Drs. Schwab, Sciubba, and Goodwin discuss operating on neurofibromas.
Surgery on patients with neurofibromas can range from relatively straightforward (simple neurofibromas) to life-threatening (complex plexiform neurofibromas). In patients with plexiform neurofibromas, particularly those near the spinal cord, care needs to be taken preoperatively, when considering surgical indications, as well as intra-operatively, where hemostasis can become challenging.
