Get the Expert Foramen Magnum Tumor Care You Deserve
Foramen magnum tumors, or meningiomas, are rare, mostly benign growths found in an opening that contains the spinal cord at the base of the skull. The tumors most frequently affect middle-aged people. Tumors develop slowly over many years, causing symptoms such as involuntary twitching or tremors, loss of muscle in the hands or tongue and pain in the upper neck, the back of the head or behind the eyes.
Within the AdventHealth Neuroscience Institute network, we specialize in minimally invasive treatments that identify and remove foramen magnum tumors with exceptional accuracy. They can be difficult to reach using traditional surgical approaches, but minimally invasive techniques pinpoint affected tissue with millimeter precision. This allows you to recover faster with less pain and scarring.
