Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Approach to the Cervicothoracic Junction for Vertebral Osteomyelitis
The selection of an anterior, lateral, or posterior approach to the cervicothoracic junction for surgical treatment of vertebral osteomyelitis is still a matter of debate. These ordinary approaches generally require an extensile exposure. This article describes a less invasive approach case of a vertebral osteomyelitis of T2/3 using a video-assisted operating technique of thoracic surgery (VATS...
متن کاملAnterior Cervicothoracic Junction Approach
Surgical approaches to the cervicothoracic junction frequently involve complicated dissection because of the restricted accessibility during the procedure and the close proximity of the great vessels. Common indications for surgical intervention include infections, neoplasms, and fractures. Approaches described here are useful for pathologies of the difficult-to-access upper thoracic spine (T1–...
متن کاملA minimally invasive vertebral hemangioma.
We describe a very unusual vertebral hemangioma presenting with a mixture of aggressive-like pattern (epidural extension, T1 hyposignal) and quiescent, inactive lesion (fatty infiltration), in association with a spiculated calcified epidural component.This paper emphasizes that CT and/or MR findings are accurate enough to make formal assessment of vertebral hemangioma, preventing patient's angu...
متن کاملEndoscopic Cystogastrostomy: Minimally Invasive Approach for Pancreatic Pseudocyst
Pancreatic pseudocysts in children are not uncommon. Non-resolving pseudocysts often require surgical intervention. Endoscopic cystogastrostomy is a minimally invasive procedure which is recommended for this condition. We report a large pancreatic pseudocyst in a 4-year old child, which developed following therapy with PEG-Asparaginase for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It was managed with minim...
متن کاملEndoscopic forehead approach for minimally invasive benign tumor excisions.
IMPORTANCE Direct transcutaneous resection has been a widely accepted standard for the removal of benign forehead lesions. In recent years, the endoscopic approach has become more prevalent because of its noninvasiveness. To date, only a few studies with limited case numbers have reported on this technique. We report our findings from one of the largest cohorts of patients undergoing tumor rese...
