[The clinical picture of spinal cord tumors with different histostructures in children].
An analysis into the results of treatment accorded to 101 sick children wiht tumours of the spinal cord evidences that the clinical picture of this pathology is distinguished by a number of features that depend on the histological structure, high compensatory potentialities and extraordinary plasticity of the child's spinal cord and vertebral column. In this connection of prime importance becomes the significance of assessing the data derived from a comprehensive examination, due consideration being given to the age-specific features of the patients. As concerns their incidence in children first and foremost are tumours of the glial series, distinguished by a comparatively mild course of the disease, paucity of focal and conduction symptomatology that is incongrous with the extent of the lesion involving the spinal cord both along its vertical and transverse section. The tumours of the meningovasal series are of rare occurrence, their salient feature being malignant evolution of the affection with extradural localization. Notwithstanding their intensive growth the heterotopic tumours cause in a number of cases some difficulty in the topicodiagnostic respect, this being due to a well-pronounced memingeal syndrome with an extremely poor focal symptomatology. An early surgical and radiation treatment of tumours in the glial series renders a realively good curative effect with partial restoration of disturbed functions in the early and late post-treatment periods.
