Circumferential Thoracic Cord Compression Due to Combined Ossified Yellow Ligament and Ossified Posterior Longitudinal Ligament Managed by a Posterior-Only Approach

Puntos clave

• Circumferential thoracic cord compression often leads to significant neurological deficits, necessitating intervention.
• Successful surgical management was achieved through a posterior-only approach, restoring mobility in affected patients.
• Assessment involved a detailed review of clinical outcomes following the procedure, focusing on the patient's recovery post-surgery.
• This work underscores the benefits of minimally invasive techniques in treating complex spinal conditions, warranting further exploration.
