Abstract
The rapid evolution of neurointervention and spinal tumor embolization has made scientific inquiry and definitive conclusion on the safety and efficacy of the practice difficult. The data supporting the procedure are fragmented and largely based on a multitude of retrospective studies that use varying techniques. Review of the available literature support embolization of spinal tumors as a safe and efficacious treatment adjunct before surgery.
