Lumbar Lamina Excision for Spinal Cord Growth

In this procedure, the provider removes a portion of the lumbar vertebra called the lamina and excises an intradural, extramedullary growth of the spinal cord, sending a portion of the lesion for testing. Intradural means inside the dura, the tough outer membrane surrounding the central nervous system. Extramedullary means outside the spinal cord.
