Schwannomas are the most common intradural-extramedullary spinal tumors, with an estimated incidence of 3 to 10 cases per 100,000 people. With continued advances in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) over recent years, MIS techniques have been utilized by spine surgeons in the resection of intradural spinal neoplasms with favorable surgical results and clinical outcomes. This video demonstrates a rare case of symptomatic, synchronous, same-level lumbar intradural-extramedullary neoplasm and acute disc herniation, both of which were successfully treated using a single MIS approach. Surgical pearls and nuances are discussed to better delineate technique and minimize potential complications.The video can be found here: http://youtu.be/78ibbicBRUk.

This chapter examines the preoperative and operative considerations that should influence the management of neoplasms affecting the spinal column. The three broad categories of spinal tumors (extradural, intradural extramedullary, and intramedullary) are described. The patient and tumor subtype factors that can create challenges in the treatment of these patients are discussed. This chapter also covers scoring systems that can help physicians in counseling and management of patients diagnosed with tumors affecting the spinal column. A multidisciplinary approach should be used to ensure that patients with spinal neoplasms receive holistic, comprehensive care.

Neoplasms of the spinal column and spinal cord, depending on their localization relative to the spinal cord and its membranes, are classified into extradural, intradural extramedullary and intramedullary. Extradural tumors are located outside the dura mater. This category includes tumors of the vertebral bodies and tumors lying in the extradural space of the spinal canal. Intradural extramedullary tumors are found within the dura but outside the spinal parenchyma. Intramedullary tumors originate within the spinal cord and are the rarest group of spinal tumors. The aim of the study is to determine the criteria for the differential diagnosis of studied pathology.

Tumour excision and laminoplasty are commonly performed as surgical treatment of extra vertebral extension of cervical schwannoma. It is worth knowing that the conventional technique of multilevel laminectomy may hinder younger patients in the long-term. This article reports a 30-year old man with an intradural-extramedullary tumour which extended from C4 to T1 that underwent modified laminoplasty.  This modified technique is preferable in maintaining the anteroposterior diameter of spinal canal as well as reducing the displacement of guttered laminae
