Abstract
A comparative analysis of the results was carried out at the Belarusian NIITO. Spinal tumors account for 12-18% of all skeletal neoplasms. Their diagnosis is extremely difficult, especially in the early stages. This is due to the polymorphism and vagueness of the clinical manifestations of spinal tumors in the initial period of the development of the process, with the variety of pathologies encountered. According to various authors, the frequency of diagnostic errors reaches 80%, their consequence is an increase in the number of neglected cases, inadequate treatment, which promotes tumor growth.
