| Popis: | A clinical case of a single-step transoral removal of C2 and C3 vertebral bodies with subsequent stabilization of the C1–C4 spinal segment through the same approach (with additional submandibular approach to insert screws into the C4 vertebra body) without dissection of the mandible and tongue is presented. The first experience of anterior stabilization of the C1–C4 spinal segment using a custom-made instrumentation system demonstrated its effectiveness. It was shown that, taking into account the length of the cervical spine resection, the anterior stabilization with a custom-made plate should be combined with standard methods of posterior fixation. Innovative surgical technologies allow optimizing the surgical technique of cervical spine stabilization and provide earlier rehabilitation of a patient. |
