Posterior stabilization with an interlaminar clamp in cervical injuries: technical note and review of the long term experience with the method

R O Holness et al. Neurosurgery. 1984 Mar.

Abstract

An alternative method of cervical fixation utilizing a stainless steel clamp is described. The clamp is applied to the adjoining laminae of involved vertebrae in those cervical dislocations and subluxations with posterior instability. The long term results of this method have been most satisfactory, as indicated by our follow-up of 51 patients treated during the last decade.
