Abstract | Severe deformities run high risk of neurological compromise. Many options have been reported to reduce risk of neurological deterioration. We present a case of a 15-year-old girl with neurofibromatosis, myelopathy and a 150-degree kyphoscoliosis who underwent 7 months of traction and 2 weeks of riluzole prior to surgery by one-stage vertebral column resection (VCR). Using a 3D model and customized jigs for pedicle screw insertion, the surgery was smooth with intraoperative improvements in motor evoked potentials (MEPs). |
