Sacral tumor symptoms?

summary

The common benign tumors of the sacrum include osteoblastoma, giant cell tumor of bone and aneurysmal bone cyst, and the common malignant tumors of the sacrum include chordoma and chondrosarcoma. Metastatic carcinoma of the sacrum is rare. Comprehensive treatment and surgical treatment are the first choice for most sacral tumors. Sacral tumor symptoms? Let's talk about it

Sacral tumor symptoms?

Chordoma, slow progress, clinical manifestations of sacrococcygeal pain, sometimes radiation to the buttocks, most patients with unilateral or bilateral sitting, bone innervation pain and numbness. Sacrococcygeal mass was the first manifestation in a few patients. Clinically, it is easy to be misdiagnosed as lumbar disc herniation or lumbar muscle strain and other common diseases. Due to the interference of intestinal Qi in imaging, it is difficult to diagnose the disease by X-ray plain film. Therefore, it is easier to diagnose the disease through X-ray plain film. Therefore, patients with the above clinical manifestations should pay attention to the possibility of excluding sacral lesions.

Benign peripheral neurogenic tumors include Schwann cell tumor, peripheral schwannoma and neurofibroma. The incidence of neurofibroma is higher than that of Schwann's cell tumor. Neurogenic tumors in the sacral region are rare, because most neurogenic tumors grow from the spinal canal through the neural foramen. At first, there are no clinical symptoms. Generally, only when the tumor in the sacral canal is large, clinical symptoms will appear.

Giant cell tumor of the sacrum, like chordoma, is not easy to be found in the early stage of giant cell tumor of the sacrum. When it grows to a large size, it will compress the sacral nerve. It is characterized by sciatica, and abnormal urination and defecation function when it is serious. The average age of patients with giant cell tumor of bone is 32 years old, which is the youngest of the three common sacral tumors. Combined with its imaging features of eccentric expansion growth, most patients can make preoperative diagnosis.

matters needing attention

In order to alleviate the pain caused by cancer, painkillers must be taken on time and in quantity. Do not wait until you feel pain to take them again. At this time, the efficacy will be greatly reduced.
