A combined posterior, lateral, and anterior approach to ventrolaterally situated chordoma of the upper cervical spine
Surgical Neurology, 09/18/09

Hyun SJ et al. – When a direct posterior approach makes it difficult or impossible to reach tumors extending to the far lateral margins of the spine and soft tissues, the posterior–lateral approach described here allows excellent visualization and safe access with minimal neural retraction for treating these laterally situated lesions. The authors describe the surgical technique for a combined approach as an alternative to the direct posterior or anterior retropharyngeal approach.
