Total vertebrectomy for en bloc resection of lung cancer invading the spine
Abstract
We describe a technique of total vertebrectomy for en bloc resection of a non-small cell lung cancer with vertebral invasion through a combination of thoracic and enlarged posterior approaches, and present our entire experience of total and partial vertebrectomy for tumors invading vertebral bodies or the costovertebral angle.
