We have experienced 6 patients of the upper cervical cord tumor (histological diagnoses were 3 meningiomas, 2 neurinomas, one metastasis of chorioepthelioma). The age of the patients ranged from 32 to 66 years, the median being 48 years. The considerable difficulty in early diagnosis is emphasized.When biceps tendon reflex and pronator reflex were hyperactive on asymmetry and Babinski reflex was positive, the upper cervical cord tumor should be also considered. And then, CT scan, CT myelography vertebral angiography are also indispensable to eefine the tumor size and the distribution of nutrient artery to the tumor.
