[Kyphotic paraplegia treated by antero-lateral transthoracic decompression and double autograft].
The authors describe a case of malformative kyphosis with paraplegia, treated by transthoracic antero-lateral decompression and anterior spinal fusion by posterior spinal fusion six weeks later. The result of the surgical treatment has been excellent with complete functional recovery. The spinal fusion seems to be the main element of the treatment, by contrast it is impossible to assess the role played by the antero-lateral decompression.
