“…The surgical field becomes wider as one chooses the approach from the former to the later, respectively, allowing better visualization, hence better ventral decompression, but with more tissue devitalization. [3][4][5][6][7][8] The transpedicular approach through a dorsal midline incision can achieve effective posterior decompression, posterolateral vertebrectomy, coupled with posterior transpedicular fixation even for multiple levels in a single session. This technique is familiar to many spine surgeons, and surely avoids the high morbidity complicating whether the anterior approach or the combined anterior and posterior approaches, hence it is considered an ideal approach for severely ill patients.…”
