Excision of intradural lesion
The dural sac is the membranous sheath or tube of dura mater that surrounds the spinal cord. An excision of intradural lesion involves removing a lesion from this area.
What does an excision of intradural lesion involve?
During the procedure, your surgeon will make an incision, usually in the back of your neck, and exposure your dura. The membrane is opened and the lesion is then removed. You will be placed under general anaesthetic so you won’t feel any pain during the procedure.
