Hello,
Your question is filled with concern and worry. This is a natural reaction to the news that your child requires spinal cord surgery.
However, your question is very difficult to answer without more information. The information about toxicity of treatment depends on the age of the child. Toddlers and young children are much different than teenagers and young adults.
I think that it is necessary to talk this over with the neurosurgeon who will be performing the procedure. It is unclear if the surgery involves a malignant (cancer) process, or if it is due to a benign cause. Post-oerative treatment recommendations depend on the diagnosis and the procedure itself.
