Spine tumor can occur at any age, but it's most common in adults between the ages of 50 and 80. The vast majority of these tumors (about 90%) are benign, and are usually detected when they cause some type of pain or discomfort that gets worse over time. It can be challenging to distinguish them from cancers of the spine, which are much less common (about 10% of spine tumors). Because these tumors can cause so much pain and other symptoms, doctors will do their best to remove them quickly through surgery if possible.
