For tumors outside the cord but within this covering, minimally invasive surgery is an alternative to conventional open surgery. A 2022 review of seven comparative studies included 302 patients: 149 had minimally invasive surgery and 153 had open surgery. The minimally invasive group had less blood loss, shorter operations and shorter hospital stays; the groups had similar rates of complications and complete tumor removal. This comparison applies to that tumor location, not to tumors growing within the spinal cord.

In a 2026 single-center study, 54 adults underwent 55 operations for tumors within the spinal cord. Complete tumor removal was achieved in 36 operations (65.5%). Assessments at four weeks and six months linked changes in neurological function with changes in walking ability. These findings describe one group with several tumor types, rather than an individual chance of walking independently or a measure of long-term cancer control.

For tumors outside the cord but inside its covering, leakage of the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord is a recognized surgical complication. Changes in spinal alignment are another concern. A 2022 single-center study followed 31 patients after tumor removal in the chest-level spine for an average of 66.8 months, with at least two years of follow-up. The group included different tumor locations relative to the cord and different surgical approaches. Twelve patients (39%) developed an increased forward spinal curve, called kyphosis. One patient, a 12-year-old girl who also received radiation therapy, needed corrective surgery three years after tumor removal. These figures describe this small mixed-age group, not the risk for every adult having spinal cord tumor surgery.

Research in adults with tumors within the spinal cord has assessed neurological function and walking at four weeks and six months after surgery. For adults having tumor removal through the back of the neck without spinal fusion or fixation, a 2022 review recommends careful follow-up for changes in alignment and stability. Younger age, removal of the back part of the second neck vertebra, and removal of bone across more spinal levels were associated with greater risk. In selected patients, stabilization of the spine at the time of tumor removal may be considered.
