Get back to living pain-free with expert spine tumor surgery that protects your mobility and restores your quality of life.
A spine tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue within or surrounding the spinal cord and vertebrae. These tumors may be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous), and can originate in the spine (primary tumors) or spread from other parts of the body (metastatic tumors). Regardless of their type, spine tumors can place pressure on nerves and the spinal cord, causing pain, weakness, and loss of function. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent permanent damage.

Spine tumors often develop gradually and may be mistaken for other spine conditions at first. It's important to be aware of the warning signs, especially if symptoms persist or worsen:
The ideal surgical approach for a spine tumor depends on the tumor’s type, size, and location. As the best spine tumor surgeon in Los Angeles, Dr. Parham Yashar specializes in advanced, minimally invasive techniques that safely remove spinal tumors while preserving healthy tissue and spinal function. In many cases, robotic-assisted surgery is used for enhanced precision. Dr. Yashar’s treatment plans are customized to each patient and may include robotic-assisted tumor resection, laminectomy, or spinal stabilization procedures, all performed with a focus on minimizing downtime and optimizing recovery.
You can drive once you’re off prescription pain medicine and can turn your head and brake quickly without pain. Most people with desk jobs return in about two to six weeks, depending on how involved the surgery was. If your job is physically demanding, expect a longer timeline and wait for clearance from your surgeon.
Some small or slow-growing tumors may be monitored or treated with medications, radiation, or chemotherapy. However, surgical removal is often recommended when the tumor causes neurological symptoms or grows rapidly.
Recovery varies depending on the complexity of the surgery and the patient’s overall health. Thanks to Dr. Yashar’s expertise in minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques, many patients benefit from shorter hospital stays, less postoperative pain, and a faster return to daily activities.
