Résumé
Whenever the radiological and clinical presentation of diffuse spinal cord lesions pose diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas, the role of primary spinal cord biopsies (SCB) can represent a crucial surgical step to guide further management. However, the benefits of SCB comes with the risks of significant neurological worsening and potentially non-diagnostic findings. An evidence-based algorithm to assess the appropriateness of SCB and its chances of successful diagnosis is currently lacking.
