The clinical cases of 24 patients with intraspinal neoplasms seen at the Neurology and Neurosurgery ward of the Hospital del Nino IMAN, in a period of four and a half years are reviewed. The majority of our cases were diagnosed as suffering from tumors of embryological origin like teratomas, dermoid cysts and neuroblastomas. The signs and symptoms were reviewed, noting the importance of weakness of the lower extremities, the alteration in reflexes and sensitivity as well as back pain. We emphasize the great help of the X ray examination of the spinal colum, both plain and with contrast media. The treatment that our patients underwent was reviewed and the results were evaluated, pointing out the fact that life prognosis is related to malignancy of the lesions and the neurological sequelae are intimatly related with the early diagnosis and treatment of this type of lesions.
回顾了在伊曼儿童医院神经科和神经外科病房四年半期间收治的24例脊髓内肿瘤患者的临床病例。我们的大多数病例被诊断为患有胚胎起源的肿瘤，如畸胎瘤、皮样囊肿和神经母细胞瘤。对体征和症状进行了回顾，注意到下肢无力、反射和感觉改变以及背痛的重要性。我们强调脊柱X线检查（平片和造影剂检查）的巨大帮助。回顾了我们患者所接受的治疗并评估了结果，指出生命预后与病变的恶性程度相关，神经后遗症与这类病变的早期诊断和治疗密切相关。
