متن کاملAnterior approach for dumbbell type cervical neurinoma.
A one-stage anterior approach was performed in four patients for total removal of dumbbell type neurinoma at the cervical level. In each case, the neurinoma compressed the spinal cord in the cervical canal, developed anteriorly through the intervertebral foramen, and compressed the vertebral artery. A conventional cervical anterior approach at the tumor site was performed, followed by confirmat...
متن کاملSurgical management of cervical spondylotic myelopathy.
Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is emerging as the most common cause of spinal cord dysfunction in the elderly worldwide.
