Abstract
Our illustrative case and literature review suggest that using local anesthesia and sedation to perform spinal surgeries including intradural tumors is possible even in high-risk patients with good outcome. Our American Society of Anesthesiologists class IV patient tolerated the surgery well with gross total tumor resection and subsequent resolution of the symptoms.
