Descriptor neoplasias epidurales
Entry term(s) tumores epidurales
Scope note: Neoplasias localizadas en el espacio entre el PERIOSTIO vertebral y la DURAMADRE que rodea a la MÉDULA ESPINAL. Los tumores en esta localización son con mayor frecuencia de origen metastásico y pueden producir déficit neurológico por el efecto de masa sobre la médula espinal o sobre las raíces nerviosas o por interferencia con el flujo sanguíneo a la médula espinal.

Scope note: Neoplasms located in the space between the vertebral PERIOSTEUM and DURA MATER surrounding the SPINAL CORD. Tumors in this location are most often metastatic in origin and may cause neurologic deficits by mass effect on the spinal cord or nerve roots or by interfering with blood supply to the spinal cord.
