I have spinal meningioma and the tumour has calcified causing great pain. what are my options to have it removed?

Neurosurgery : You need an experienced neurosurgeon to evaluate your films and review the options in removing the tumor. Depending on the size and location the risks may be high as most tutors are in close proximity to nerves or the spinal cord.
