Abstract Background: Intradural extra-medullary spinal cord tumors represent about 60-70% of all spinal cord tumors. Aim of Study: The significant and dramatic improvement of most patient had IDEM spinal cord tumor is the main goal of surgery. Patient and Method: During period of 10 years from 2014-2024, 30 patient of IDEM spinal cord tumor underwent to sur-gery. Results: 30 patient underwent to surgery, 83.3% was fe-male and 16.7% was male. Ranged from 30-60yrs as age group. The most clinical presentation were back pain and radicu-lopathy followed by motor weakness and sphincter disturbance. The most site was thoracic region, but the most common pathology was meningioma (66.7%) followed by schwanoma (20%) and hemangioblastoma (13.3%). The tumor was com-plete removal in all cases. Conclusion: The aim to surgery for IDEM spinal cord tu-mor is complete removal of tumor.
