- Abstract
Multilevel Oblique Corpectomy (MOC) is an emerging technique for surgical treatment of multi-segmental cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) featuring extensive ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). However, the use of an oblique drilling plane is unfamiliar to most surgeons and there is no anatomical landmark present on the posterior portion of the vertebral body. To overcome these difficulties, the authors used intraoperative C-arm-based image guided navigation (IGN), and this study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of IGN in MOC.
